Falun Dafa Practitioner Mr. Zuo Guoqing from Daqing Tortured to Death
2003-12-24
Soon after the torture, he could not eat, his chest was congested and he coughed a lot. After the Chinese Spring Festival in early 2002, the staff in the labour camp brought him to a hospital for a checkup and found that he contracted pleurisy, tuberculosis and pneumonia. Later, he was brought to the Second Hospital of Daqing City, a hospital for infectious diseases, for treatment. At that time, he was very frail. Fearing responsibility for his death, the labour camp found a family member to take him out of the labour camp under the guise of "medical treatment." -

Schizophrenia and Being Crippled : The Sad Consequences of Torture in Masanjia Forced Labour Camp
2003-12-22In order to further devastate Dafa practitioners' physically and mentally, the guards did not allow Dafa practitioners to sleep or even close their eyes. Thugs were put on four shifts every day watching practitioners. Some practitioners were forced to sit on a small stool for all day and night for over a month. Some practitioners were sleepy and fell down to the ground from the stool. One practitioner was not allowed to close her eyes for five days and nights. Finally, this caused her to become schizophrenic. -
The Brutal Tactics Used by the Wanjia Labour Camp Guards to Torture Falun Dafa Practitioners
2003-12-21New detainees and Dafa practitioners from the different brigades who are considered steadfast are sent here for brutal torture and forced brainwashing. The prison guards play tapes slandering Teacher Li and Dafa all day long.

The Truth About Jiutai Forced Labour Camp's Persecution of Dafa Practitioners
2003-12-21Although the guards have established a "no beating and no cursing" rule, because of detained practitioners' firm resistance and outside practitioners' exposure of the guards' crimes on the Internet, they still do bad things secretly. Under the guise of "setting up a class" they added a name and changed the location of the persecution, but their lies, crazy beatings and verbal abuse remain the same. -
To Cover up Evidence of Death by Torture, Kaiping Labour Camp Cremates Mrs. Cui Yulan's Body
2003-12-20In the spring of 2001, the Kaiping Forced Labour Camp telephoned the family to come and take Cui Yulan home. When the family went, they only saw the box of her ashes and the clothes and blanket that were being returned. They were not told how long ago she had died or the circumstances of her death. The prison police were afraid that details about their responsibility in her death would be exposed, so they secretly cremated her body without notifying her family. -

60 Year Old Lady Ms. Zhang Dabi Tortured to Death
2003-12-19The labour camp refused to accept Ms. Zhang becuase of her physicial condition. But the reasons behind their refusal reveal a chilling disregard for human life. Based on Jiang Zemin's persecution policy, each forced labour camp gets a "death quota", or "the number of Falun Gong practitioners a forced labour camp is allowed to have die in the camp." Each forced labour camp is also rewarded for making a Falun Gong practitioner renounce his/her belief in Falun Gong. The camp officials did not want to forfeit one of their death quota numbers for a dying Falun Gong practitioner without obtaining their reward from making her renounce Falun Gong. -

Torture, Forced Hard Labour, and Deception in the Female Labour Camp of Nanning City
2003-12-18One evening a policeman forced us to kneel down in the corridor. One cadre who came for inspection found out and asked: "Who has punished you like that? Who approved such measures?"

Hebei Province: A Woman in Her Sixties Is Force-Fed Human Excrement Three Times
2003-12-16The Gaoyang Forced Labour Camp founded the Women's Brigade in November 2000. Although it hasn't been in existence very long, its high rate of forcing practitioners to give up their practice of Falun Dafa is well known throughout the country. Frequently, there were authorities from labour camps in surrounding areas that came to learn their techniques for breaking down Falun Gong practitioners and forcing them to renounce their belief. Many steadfast practitioners were transferred here from other forced labour camps in Shijiazhuang City, Tangshan City, and Baoding City in order to intensify the persecution against them. -
Hunan Province: Baimalong Labour Camp Inject Nerve Damaging Drugs Into Captive Women
2003-12-15In Baimalong Labour Camp, you can be tortured in a multitude of ways if you are determined to practise Falun Dafa. After six days, Chen was sent to the medical office for injections. After half a month, the director ordered two officers to watch her in the medical office. According to witnesses, the staff injected glucose, along with a nerve-damaging drug called "Winter Sleep," into Chen's bloodstream. After being injected with this drug, a person will gradually suffer memory loss and will want to sleep all the time. The medical staff injected Chen with small quantities of this drug each day, causing her to slowly become sick, as if she were suffering from a chronic disease. Doctor Lu from the Baimalong medical office is primarily responsible for the harm done to Ms. Chen's health.
