• Names and Phone Numbers of Guards Who Persecute Falun Gong Practitioners at the Tuanhe Forced Labour Camp in Beijing

  2009-12-30
  Liu Guoxi (male): group chief of Group No. 1; guard identification number 1153176; about 30 years old. He has been in the Falun Gong persecution group since 1999. Because he proactively persecuted Falun Gong practitioners, he was promoted to group chief. Liu often hysterically curses others in public, and either commands or is directly involved in the persecution of many practitioners. For example, practitioners Yu Ming and Ren Xu, among others, were force-fed for a long period of time while on hunger strike. From the latter half of 2006 until April 2007, before being transferred to Liaoning, Yu Ming was imprisoned by himself in a small room with sealed windows at Group No. 1 (the old building then in use).

• Ms. Yang Hongmei from Shulan City, Jilin Province, Recounts Years of Mistreatment

  2009-12-27
  In 2003, for the second time I was sent to the Heizuizi Forced Labour Camp of Changchun City for a one-year term because I distributed Falun Gong informational materials. In the labour camp, working overtime is routine. Most of the raw materials used for making items are harmful to the human body. For instance, dyed feathers are used to make small butterflies. When the raw feathers arrive, we have to dust them to make them unfold As we are dusting, our bodies and clothes become completely covered in the dye. Because we are inhaling the dust, even our phlegm is coloured by the dye.
