• I Was Brutally Tortured in the Gansu Province Women's Forced Labour Camp

  2007-03-31
  The guards in the forced labour camp wanted to put on the statement that I “admit” practising Falun Gong was wrong. The captain then pressured the drug offender to put words that slandered Falun Dafa at the end of my statement and read it in public.I strongly protested and asked them to give me the statement, and went on a hunger strike. Captain Fan ordered 4 or 5 drug offenders to pin me to the ground and cuff my hands behind my back, with one of my arm up and the other down. I screamed from the pain. They then cuffed me to the bed frame. I was locked in a position in which I couldn't stand, kneel down or squat. I was forced to change my body position and reposition my legs constantly. Even the drug offenders felt sorry for me and shed tears.

• The Persecution Experienced by A Common Family

  2007-03-29
  I went to Beijing to petition for my fundamental rights to practise Dafa. I was arrested and sent to Longshan Correctional Centre, where the guards were full of abusive words. One day a TV reporter came, and we were told to sit in a line in the corridor, while a supervisor told the reporter how good the conditions were, how Falun Gong practitioners were treated like sisters, and how we liked the place. I said to the supervisor, "You just said you treated us as you did to your loved ones, but how come you often beat us and yell at us? Look at what you did to Aunt Yuan Zeqin, who's sitting right next to me. She is over 70 and her ribs were all broken." At that moment, the reporter switched off his camera.

• Chongqing Falun Dafa Practitioners Arrested, Sentenced to Prison for Printing Informational Materials

  2007-03-29
  Mr. Deng Liang, 33 years old, began the practice of Falun Dafa in 1997. His diligence and kindness at work won him the award of "Top 10 Best Trained Attendants." When the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began the persecution of Falun Gong in 1999, Mr. Deng created and distributed large quantities of materials exposing the persecution. In July 2004 he was arrested. During the first 24 hours, the police deprived him of sleep and did not provide any food. In addition, he was not allowed to use the toilet, but was forced to sit still on tiny stools. A fabricated crime of "Destruction of the Country's Execution of the Law" was used to sentence Deng Liang and Wang Jinfei to seven years in prison. Due to the persecution, Deng now suffers vision problems and almost went blind.

• The Abuse of Practitioners at the Chongqing City Women's Forced Labour Camp: A Personal Account

  2007-03-29
  Between August 2005 and July 2006 I was detained in the Chongqing Women's Forced Labour Camp. They immediately tell new detainees the camp rules, which are implemented right away. One is given a deadline to memorise the rules and regulations, and has to read and memorise the regulation books. They call it "Militarised Management." One has to pass a three-month-long "discipline" probation period; otherwise they will extend the lock-up time and intensify the discipline. During those three-months, one has to get up at 5:30 a.m., spend not more than 10 minutes on personal hygiene and then commence with the "discipline," which lasts until midnight.

• Exposing the Crimes Committed by Prison Guards in Nanhu Forced Labour Camp in Anhui Province

  2007-03-28
  The Jiaozhi Division of Nanhu Forced Labour Camp in Anhui Province is detaining more than 30 Falun Gong practitioners. The officials of the labour camp have one guard to watch over each practitioner, putting practitioners under surveillance 24 hours a day. The practitioners are beaten, deprived of sleep, forced to stand for long periods, confined in a solitary compartment, and made to put on tightened hats. The prison guards recently organised "helpers" to forcefully brainwash and "transform" practitioners, using extreme pressure, and completely isolate and watch over them. Practitioner Mr. Lu Qinghai was confined in a solitary compartment and forced to put on the tightened hat for a long time because he firmly believes in Falun Dafa and refused to cooperate with the unreasonable demands of the guards.

• I Have Been Sent to Labour Camps and Brainwashing Classes Four Times in the Past Eight Years

  2007-03-27
  In August 2003, I was forcibly taken to a labour camp. I was often deprived of sleep and was put in solitary confinement. I was asked to recite the six articles of public security. After making me suffer for years, they made me sign the “Four Statements.” I felt very bad about myself. In April 2006, when I was back in my hometown to distribute materials, I was reported by someone who did not understand the truth of the persecution. I was arrested and sent to Lianzhou Detention Centre and then to a labour camp. As I had a high blood pressure, I was refused to be taken in. The “610 Office” sent me to Sanshui Brainwashing Class for the fourth time. In the following months, I did not cooperate with the persecution and they started using violence to torture me.

• An Older Lady Tells of the Persecution She Suffered in Sichuan Province

  2007-03-25
  After the Chinese Communist Party started to persecute Dafa, we were not allowed to practise together. My husband did not allow me to practise at home either. I could not understand. Why would such a wonderful practice be forbidden? I decided to speak out for justice for Dafa in Beijing. I was arrested in Beijing. In the regional office, the police asked where we came from. We did not say anything. Then they started to beat us. I still refused to tell, and then they took off my clothes. At last I only had on an undershirt. It was a cold winter day. They asked me to hold a stone lion up. One policeman said, "If you can hold it up, you will be released." Another officer, tall and mean said, "What do you say?" Then he slapped me. It felt like my eyeball had fallen out from the beating. I slowly pushed it back into place. My whole face was swollen, but I did not feel any pain.

I was arrested and detained at the police station. Policemen there ordered me to point out Dafa practitioners from a group of people, but I did not cooperate with them.

They tortured me by having me sit on a wooden stool for a long time without changing positions or sleeping. Otherwise, I would be beaten. My buttocks hurt and became numb from the prolonged sitting.
