  • Elderly Practitioner Suffers Mental Collapse in Brainwashing Centre

    The brainwashing tactics are relentless, with no let up. From all angles the practitioners are bombarded by propaganda, along with violent coercion. Under the great pressure, this elderly practitioner became distracted and began speaking incoherently. Fearing to take responsibility, the "610 Office" told his daughter to take him away. She took him to her home, where, in his delirium, he walked from the building.
  • Jilin Province Female Prison Attempt to Deceive Family about Practitioner Tortured to Death

    Why did the authorities in this female prison only inform her family members two days after her death? Why did they not allow the family to check and examine the body? Why did they put heavy make up on her dead body? What were they trying to hide? The police will stop at nothing to use all methods of deception to conceal their evil deeds.

  • Dafa Practitioner Is Suffering From Brutal Persecution in Beijing’s Tuanhe Forced Labour Camp

    It was so humid and hot that it was very difficult for a person to breathe even for one minute, but Li Xupeng was forced to sit in the room for over ten hours. He was not allowed to stand up, walk, use a fan, or take a shower. After several days of the torture, Xupeng was physically exhausted, had serious symptoms of dehydration, and lost consciousness. The vicious police did not let him out, but instead they force-fed him with drugs, claiming he was ill.

    On March 7 he and his wife were arrested and sentenced to the most severe prison terms of 12 and 8 year respectively. Their 16-year-old son was left with no one to take care of him.

  • In Memory of My Fellow Practitioner Kang Ruizhu (Photo)

    She looked dignified, upright and compassionate. In our simple conversation, she showed her steadfastness as a veteran practitioner. Listening to her talk in a sincere and forthright tone, I deeply felt her determination and maturity as a practitioner... this short talk we had became our unexpected farewell.
  • Child Left to Fend for Herself: Parents Tortured in Brainwashing Centres

    A responsible member of Lanzhou City's Political Consultative Committee was stripped of his position, arrested numerous times, detained and his wife forced to become homeless. Had he committed any crime? Had he become corrupt? Did he abuse his position? No - He aimed to live a virtuous life and to conduct himself according to a high moral standard, as the principles of Falun Dafa require. For this he was punished in a despicable way, and his family torn apart.

    Practitioners have had their sense of security and belonging to their communities torn away. At any given time their homes can be invaded by lawless police, intent on doing malicious damage to their property, and inflicting pain and torture at will. They are persecuted in this way to try to force them to give up their innocent belief in Falun Dafa's principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance.
  • A Human Tragedy: Supplementary Report on Heart-Breaking Torture That Led to Practitioner’s Mental Breakdown

    Even though Lin Chengtao barely survived the inhuman physical punishment and torture, the police continued to spare no effort to torture him mentally… They publicised a letter that his wife wrote from Tiantanghe Women's Labour Camp. After she was brainwashed, his wife actually suggested that the police in the Second Brigade torture Lin Chengtao with the same methods that the Tiantanghe Labour Camp used to violently "transform" her, such as shocking with electric batons, sleep deprivation, etc. Mr. Lin was deeply injured by this.

Now she is paralysed, lying in bed and cannot recognise anyone.
  • I Was Kidnapped, Beaten and Imprisoned by the Yilan County Detention Centre

    Five or six policemen roughly pulled me off my bed and dragged me outside. I was wearing just underpants and did not have shoes on. I struggled and shouted out. My child was crying for her father, and my wife was desperately trying to stop them also. The policemen forcibly stuffed me into their vehicle. In the process, my head sustained a two-inch cut and my face was covered with blood. Not only did this practitioner and his family suffer, being violently wrenched from home, he was robbed of his livelihood and plunged into poverty.
  • Atmosphere of Terror in Changsha Female Prison

    An inmate said, "I have been in this jail for almost 10 years, and this was my first time that I ever witnessed such miserable things. This is just horrible." One time. a policeman used an electric baton on a practitioner, all the while saying, "Feel free to sue me. It wasn't me who hurt you, it was the electricity!" Time and time again the guards' words and actions have shown how much they want to make the practitioners suffer in retaliation for exposing their brutality to the outside world.
  • In Memory of Fellow Practitioner Wang Kefei

    It was at the end of 2001 that I first heard that Wang Kefei was tortured to death in Heizuizi Female Forced Labour Camp in Changchun City. In January 2002, when I first looked at Kefei’s portrait, shock and anger filled my heart and my eyes were full of tears. I could not believe such a wonderful person could be tortured to death in a labour camp in a time when China claims to be experiencing its best human rights conditions in history.

Every doctor felt uncomfortable with his own conscience and was ashamed of the crimes instigated by the Jiang regime.
