• The Persecution Suffered by Yin Shuyun from Longkou City, Shandong Province

  2006-09-11
  My name is Yin Shuyun and I am a 49-year-old Falun Dafa practitioner. On February 8th, 2000, I travelled to Tiananmen Square, Beijing with five other practitioners to peacefully appeal against the persecution. I was forcefully arrested. A policeman grabbed my hair roughly and beat me up. I was forced to run in the snow barefoot and stand in cold water for an hour. I was also forced to press large cubes of ice against my face, before being hung up with handcuffs and brutally beaten. While the police beat me up, they shouted that it was time to slaughter the pig. I was severely frozen and my face was also beaten to the extent of distortion and my entire body was bruised and injured.

• I Was Tortured With Poisonous Drugs by the Shayang Forced Labour Camp in Hubei Province

  2006-09-09
  Around May and June 2001, when I was first detained in the Shayang Forced Labour Camp, the guards forcibly gave Falun Dafa practitioners injections, using the excuse of "protection from typhoid fever." The guards arranged for some hired thugs to wait in a police vehicle. If anyone did not yield, they took him in the vehicle to another location and separately carried out more brutal persecution. I was forced to have an injection. However, the prisoners who monitored us did not receive injections at all, which showed that the guards tortured Falun Gong practitioners with drugs.

• Seven Electric Batons Used to Shock One Practitioner in the Zibo Forced Labour Camp

  2006-09-09
  The officials worked together to persecute the practitioners by detaining them individually and in secret. They used many vicious tortures. Every practitioner suffered from electric shock torture to varying degrees, the worst example was using seven electric batons to shock one practitioner. They also put a motorcycle helmet on a practitioner's head, then turned on the speaker in the helmet to the highest volume broadcasting a recording that slandered Dafa. This torture damaged the practitioners' nervous system. The torturers took turns blowing cigarette smoke into the helmet to make the practitioners cry and cough. They tied practitioners up with a belt so tightly that the person could not breathe and was almost in shock.

• Ding Haiqing's Suffering at Heizuizi Women's Forced Labour Camp in Changchun City

  2006-09-05
  Guards used all kinds of cruel tactics to make Ms Ding Haiqing "transform," but to no avail. Ding Haiqing remained firm in her belief in Dafa. Therefore, Hou Zhihong beat her cruelly. The tortures she suffered included the "flying the airplane" and touching the head to the feet. When she could not reach that position, the guards kicked her, tortured her with electric batons, stabbed her with nails, and hit her hands against the windowsill, injuring her hands. She also suffered sleep deprivation if she did not finish what she was told to write. They forced her to stand for 17 hours (from 7 a.m. to midnight) daily without moving.

• Personal Testimony Regarding Persecution in Huadian City and at Heizuizi Labour Camp

  2006-09-03
  We experienced the most agonising fourteen days of suffering from various tortures there. That same afternoon and the entire evening of our arrival at the detention centre, the guards forbade us from eating and sleeping. It was during the chill of winter. No one in the detention centre provided us with anything to keep out the cold. Several criminals who sympathised with Dafa practitioners shared their bedding. The food at that detention centre was fit only for animals. We were subjected to interrogation at the detention centre, and the guards attempted to force us to provide our fingerprints. Our fingers were broken but they failed.
