Witnessing the Evil's Madness
2001-11-19We arrived at the Tiananmen Police Station. There I saw the most horrible scene I had ever experienced in my life. A policeman beat this female Dafa practitioner while cursing her with obscene language. Then they forced her to have her picture taken. Five or six policemen held one female Dafa practitioner, pulled her hair and slapped her face, "Pa, Pa, Pa," the sounds shocked and scared people. This young girl cried in pain. My heart became very heavy. I could not believe they were the capital's police. -

Overcoming Torture and Walking Out of Changlinzi Labour Camp with Dignity After 83 days on Hunger Strike
2001-11-16My hands were cuffed and hung up to the cell door. I could not stand upright, sit down, or squat down. I was just hanging there in this position for 6 days and nights. At that time I had scabies all over my body (The hygienic conditions were very poor in the labour camp and we were not allowed to take baths.). The blood and pus dripped from my legs to the ground. My pants were drenched and stuck to my legs, which became more swollen due to the 50 days of standing and the torture in the compartment. -

Eye Witness Report From a Labor Camp In Guangdong Province
2001-11-11While in detention, we lived an inhuman life. Everyday, we had to do more than 10 hours' labor. We were not allowed to do the exercises or study the Fa [principles of Falun gong]even for half an hour. One day, we woke up early and immediately began our exercises. The guards found out and called the drug addicts to drag, pull, and beat us. We disobeyed them and still kept doing our exercises. To stop us, they then fixed our arms and legs with handcuffs. Sometimes, we did our exercises when the guards were not paying attention. Even so, sometimes we were beaten and cursed by the drug addicts. -
Female Dafa practitioner Ren Tingling was tortured to death; she died in the brainwashing class
2001-11-11People in the Dongcun Detention Center used extremely cruel and inhuman methods to persecute Dafa practitioners. One day (cannot remember the exact date), the other practitioners from room 209 found that Ren Tingling was in extreme discomfort. She was holding her body, clutching her own shoulders with her arms and her whole body was shaking. She was in critical condition. The other practitioners immediately told the guard, but the guard did not care. Shortly after that, the guard forced the practitioners to go watch a brainwashing video. Some practitioners wanted to stay and take care of Ren but the guard prohibited them. That morning, between 8:00 and 9:00 a.m., Ren Tingling died. The police lied to the public, saying that Ren Tingling died from a cerebral hemorrhage. -

A Non-Practitioner Tells How Guards Even Try to Force Practitioners to Kill Flies
2001-11-09Falun Gong practitioners never gave up their beliefs, never fought back when they were beaten up, and never cursed back when they were sworn at. They were undoubtedly much to be admired and esteemed!I truly wish the country could offer justice, and I thank the practitioners who changed my friend into a good person. -
Victims Letter to Camp Director Testifying to the Beatings, Torture and Hiring of Thugs
2001-11-09Director Huang, you are a witness when I was beaten. I remember there was one night when I was beaten so hard that I collapsed and had to support myself against a table in the female cell. When you and another guy from the political and administrative committee came in, you paid no attention to my suffering and sat right by the table, talking and laughing with those female betrayers. You didn't do anything at all to stop the beating. -

International Investigation Required into the Inhuman and Illegal Conditions at Dashaping Detention Centre
2001-11-07Because of the poor living conditions and extreme hard labour, it is not uncommon for detainees to die at the centre. When I first went in here, I was told that two people had died of illnesses consecutively. The Cell Head said that it is very common for people to die in there. Their lives are worth less than a pig's. Families are only paid 600 Yuan as compensation. Detainees consider the centre to be a "Hell-on-Earth." -
