• Practitioner Ms. Li Xiumin Diagnosed With Tumour; Calling for Her Immediate Release on Medical Parole

  2006-03-02
  Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Li Xiumin has been detained in Shijiazhuang City Labour Camp for more than 18 months. She has recently been diagnosed with breast hyperplasia and an uterine tumour, a medical condition in all likelihood caused by maltreatment under the persecution. The uterine tumour measures about 1.2 inches in diameter. The doctor urged her to immediately undergo surgery. She also suffers from retinitis. Her family is truly concerned for her. Retinitis can result in loss of eyesight if left untreated. We urgently call for the release of Li Xiumin on medical parole.

• Masanjia Forced Labour Camp Guards Laugh While Torturing Practitioners

  2006-03-02
  "In December, 2002, after a few months of being on a hunger strike, guards tied up my waist for a few hours, handcuffed both of my hands on my back, and tied both of my legs in the double lotus position for several hours continuously. As the time period was very long, my bones and muscles became excruciatingly painful - so painful that I screamed out loudly and lost consciousness. Policeman Zhang Chunguang shocked me with an electric baton so severely that my heart was twisting, both of my legs trembled, and I was dizzy. The pain was so bad that it seemed my heart had torn apart, while the police was laughing wholeheartedly."

• Practitioner Ms. Su Baoli Recounts 18 Unconstitutional Detentions

  2006-03-01
  On July 20th, 1999, the wicked Chinese Communist Party started persecuting Falun Gong. That date marked the end of our peaceful life. In the past six years, hundreds of thousands of Falun Gong practitioners, including myself, have experienced unprecedented cruel persecution only because we persisted in our belief in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and being good people. Our families were broken up, and many of us were thrown into prison. I was detained 18 times in violation of the Chinese constitution, and my family was fined 43,500 yuan. I recently broke free from the latest incarceration and cannot put into words the amount of suffering I have gone through.

Ms. Geng was only released when she lost consciousness from the torture.

• Practitioner Ms Song Ailiang from Dalian Tortured in Masanjia Forced Labour Camp

  2006-02-20
  In late March 2005, to further persecute Falun Dafa practitioners, the practitioners were not allowed to come down to the first floor even during meals, and they had no hot water. They could only drink cold water [note: in China, especially in prison, the cold tap water is not sanitary and not suitable for drinking] and take cold baths. The practitioners collectively protested against the persecution. Beginning on April 1st, they all went on a hunger strike. All the guards were mobilised to force-feed practitioners, which is really a method of further persecution. Over ten people forcibly fed one practitioner. The food was corn porridge mixed with unknown substances.

• How the Xinhua Forced Labour Camp in Sichuan Province Ferociously Persecutes Falun Gong Practitioners

  2006-02-13
  In the labour camp, the prisoners have to take written exams. To find excuses to persecute Falun Gong practitioners, the camp police intentionally put questions that attacked Falun Gong. If the practitioners refused to take the written exams or did not "pass" the exams, they were sent to the strictly disciplined squadron or got their labour camp terms extended. Guards pierced their faces and necks with iron nails and ballpoint pen tips, forced them to kneel down on chairs, spit on them, slapped their faces, kicked them, and burnt their skin with lit cigarettes. Ironically, the labour camp's walls are covered with slogans stating that no physical punishments are allowed and a "humanitarian" environment is created.

• Zaozihe Forced Labour Camp in Shaanxi Province Incites Drug Addicts to Torture Falun Dafa Practitioners

  2006-02-07
  The Zaozihe Forced Labour Camp prison guards are known for cruelly torturing Dafa practitioners. After the labour camp's persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners was exposed to the public, the guards now incite drug addicts to beat the practitioners in order to cover up their own crimes. This way, if problems arise or when they are questioned by the practitioner's families and the public, they can shirk their responsibilities and blame the drug addict inmates by claiming, "We don't know what is going on among the inmates." They even lie, saying that they will punish the drug addicts who beat practitioners.
