  • Urgent Appeal: German Resident Held in Shiyan Forced Labour Camp's Brainwashing Centre (Phone Numbers Included)

    Lin Wenrong went back to Wuhan City, Hubei Province on January 17th, 2003. She went to Tiananmen on her own several days later, and was arrested there. Because she is registered as a resident in Shiyan City, Hubei Province, she was immediately sent to the Xiajiadian Forced Labour Camp in Shiyan City, Hubei Province (under the name of a "Legal Education Base"). This labour camp is actually a vicious brainwashing centre used to persecute Falun Dafa practitioners, and many Falun Dafa practitioners are locked up inside. One brainwashing class is held there every month.

    I'm glad to hear that your court has accepted the Genocide civil suit against Jiang Zemin filed by Falun Dafa practitioners and their relatives.

The following statement is the true story of the brutal tortures my family and I have suffered, and I hope it can serve as part of the evidence for Jiang's crimes.
  • "Permitted Death Quotas" in the Wujiabao Forced Labour Camp Lead to a Frenzy of Torture

    In July, the authorities in the Wujiabao camp increased their persecution against Dafa practitioners. The authorities said that the central committee had ordered and permitted a death quota. Within the quota, policemen could take no responsibility even if they had killed Dafa practitioners during their torture. Following this order, Wu Aidong organised more vicious tortures aimed at "reforming" Dafa practitioners in various brutal ways. Those atrocious scenes were too horrible to look at.

  • Harbin City Female Rehabilitation Centre Police Savagely Torture Dafa Practitioners

They eat their fill of three meals everyday."

Poor Yang Lidong was beaten so badly that he lost control of his bowels.

I passed out on the spot and was carried by the police to Beijing's Qianmen Police Station. The police threw me in a quiet place while I was still unconscious and left me for the night.

  • Practitioners Expose the Crimes of Shenyang City's Dabei Prison to the "World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong"

    The means they used are a collection of various nation-wide evil methods, all of which are very vicious and base. Last June, a Dafa practitioner was killed at Ward No. 7 in the Dabei Women's Prison. At the end of 2002, over 10 Dafa practitioners had been persecuted to death. But the criminals who killed those practitioners are still protected by Jiang's power and haven't been punished yet. They still conduct crimes out of their desire for political self interest and monetary gain.
