• Torture Instead of Healing Leads to a Fifty Percent Death Rate for Practitioners at the Public Security Hospital in Jilin Province

  2003-11-30
  When I heard that Liu Chengjun was admitted to the Public Security Hospital located in Jilin Province, I became very anxious. I remembered my own persecution experiences, having spent just four days in that hospital. I personally saw how the aim of the so-called "hospital" was basically not to cure or help Falun Dafa practitioners but instead was exactly the opposite. The persecution of Falun Gong practitioners was taken a step further there. I thoroughly came to understand the essence of the evil authorities in their attempt to create a news blockade, the intensity of their aggravated persecution, and their fabrication of lies.

• Our Family Is Being Persecuted Because We Will Not Renounce Our Belief in "Truth, Compassion, Tolerance"

  2003-11-27
  In the last four years, our family of five people have been detained and tortured numerous times just because we practise Falun Gong and are letting the public know about the illegal persecution against us which has harmed so many innocent people. Jiang Zemin's attack on Falun Dafa has broken my family apart. Even my friends and relatives are terrified of being implicated simply for know us and dare not contact or approach us. We hope that people around the world help bring Jiang to justice in the international court and end the persecution against innocent people!

• Cruel Torture Too Horrible to Imagine: Cheeks, Tongue, and Nasal Cavity are Punctured with Needles

  2003-11-23
  They tied me on the Tiger Bench [a small iron bench that is approximately 20 cm. tall] and beat me, hitting my ankles, legs, hands, head, and feet with sticks. My ankles were so swollen that they were as thick as my legs. They also covered my head with a plastic bag, and tied it around my neck to threaten to suffocate me. They did not open it until I had almost suffocated to death. Then, once I got my breath, they tied it again. They also clamped my fingers with two wooden sticks. I was in so much pain that I was shaking badly. After they got tired of beating me, they went out to have a tea break. After they came back, they continued beating me. Just like this, they beat me from morning until evening.

  After she was brought back to Wuhan, the police sentenced her to two years of forced labour using some ambiguous charges. During that time, she was transferred around to many different places, such as the detention centre, the brainwashing class, and the labour camp. She experienced many types of torture such as brutal beatings, long-term sleep deprivation, being hung up in the air by her wrists with her feet off the floor for a long time, being forced to do physical labour after her hunger strikes, being tied onto the "dead person's bed"[1] for a long time, force-feeding, and other forms of torture.

• Liu Chengjun's Life is In Danger--Police Will Not Allow Him Medical Parole

  2003-11-22
  He remained unconscious for an entire day following an inability to eat or drink for the past twenty-five days. He is a patient at Central Hospital, located within the Jilin Provincial Forced Labour Camp, where for many days he has been officially classified as "life at risk." Jilin City Prison has agreed to temporarily release him for medical treatment, but as he is a registered resident of Nong-an County, that would put him under the jurisdiction of the Nong-an County Police System, and they have refused to accept him because they are afraid to accept responsibility for his life. Consequently, the prison voided his medical parole forms, and Liu Chengjun has not been allowed to go home.

• Three Years of Hardship and Torture Cannot Change Practitioners' Hearts

  2003-11-16
  After ten days of this, they no longer asked me anything, but routinely tied me up very tightly as soon as I had finished working each day. When I was half-hung, there was no point of support for my whole body other than my tiptoes. This time, after tying me for several days, they said they would let me go to sleep as long as I did not awaken earlier than they did. One day, I was beaten just because I had gotten up before them to fold my blanket. Another time, because I had been caught talking, the person on duty and the prisoners stuffed a dirty rag in my mouth, sealed it with tape, then beat my face and mouth, which became red and swollen. The person on duty also threw some hard-soled boots at my head.

• Recent Information on the Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners Mao Changqing, Li Jianguo, and Tian Yuxi from Henan Province

  2003-11-16
  Several police officers held him down and pried his mouth open. During the force feeding some people also tickled his armpits in order to force him to comply. The three practitioners appealed the unjust sentence. The Wancheng district court did not hold any new trial but soon issued an order to "maintain the original judgment." The Wancheng District Court did not follow Chinese law in sentencing these Falun Dafa practitioners; instead, it followed the order from Jiang's regime and sentenced the practitioners at will.

• Crimes at a Hospital -- Facts About the Persecution of Dafa Practitioner Ms. Chen Yinghua

  2003-10-28
  They could not find any place to insert the needle. Also, the blood vessels in my legs collapsed, and the blood could not circulate properly. Even though I was covered in bruises, the nurse still said, "No problem." When the insertion of the IV needle felt like a knife digging into my flesh, they would find another place on my body to insert the needle. Some nurses said to me: "If you pull the tube out again, we will immediately put it back. If you pull out the needle, we will reinsert it straight away." All the torture was aimed at forcing me to stop my hunger strike, which I had undertaken to resist the unjust persecution.

• How the Police Brutally Tortured A Dafa Practitioner

  2003-10-28
  I could hear my teeth grinding from pain and had difficulty breathing. Then I completely lost consciousness. I did not know when I was taken down. Later, I felt someone was pushing my mouth and chest, moving my arms, and heard a voice, "Be careful! Normally when we have a couple of them here, it was easy to cover it up even if one or two died. This time we've got a dozen here. It might be difficult to stop the news from leaking." I could not open my eyes, no matter how hard I tried.

• The Deceitful Faces of the Guards in Beijing Tuanhe Forced Labour Camp

  2003-10-27
  Whenever the practitioners acted to resist the persecution, the vicious guards in Tuanhe would violently beat them. The guards would yell, "Whoever resists the transformation [brainwashing] will be beaten up! This is the place that administers the wishes of the dictatorship. We are not afraid that you do not give in." Each time the beatings were reported to the labour camp director or higher government officials, they would always say, "Ah! The guards are just of such low quality. Would anybody with good character come to work in a labour camp?"

• The Abuse, Torment and Humiliation Suffered by Female Dafa Practitioner At Gaoyang Forced Labour Camp

  2003-10-24
  These incidents are the exact manifestation of Jiang Zemin's policy of "defame their reputation, bankrupt them financially, destroy them physically" in his persecution of Falun Gong. Such deep pain is unimaginable, unless one personally experiences it. One will remember this for the rest of one's life.
