In order to increase the so called "reformation rate", [number of practitioner who are brainwashed to give up practising Falun Gong] Heizuizi Labour Camp in Changchun City, Jilin Province has been brutally torturing kind Dafa practitioners physically and mentally. The main methods are:

1. Standing punishment and sleep deprivation - As soon as practitioners are imprisoned at the labour camp, they are forced to write a "Statement of Separation". Practitioners who refuse to write the statements are forced to stand continuously for several days and nights, and are not allowed to close their eyes or sleep.

2. Collaborators [Former Falun Gong practitioners who have given up due to brainwashing and torture] spread lies and rumours among the practitioners.

3. Beating practitioners and piercing their fingers with needles. They increase physical punishments late at night.

4. Forcefully taking practitioners' fingerprints as signatures - If the above methods fail to make practitioners renounce their belief, collaborators will write a "Statement of Separation". A few people then forcefully hold a Dafa practitioner down and force their fingerprints onto the statements as signatures. They announced that the 'Statement of Separation' is valid as long as they have a fingerprint. The vicious people also speak recklessly without reason: "If you do not want to be imprisoned, the government must detain you here. If you do not want to sign a "Statement of Separation", we must use forceful methods to make you separate."

5. Handcuffing, dowsing with cold water, beating with electric batons - The guards often use electric batons on determined Dafa practitioners. They handcuff practitioners, dowse them with cold water, and then shock them with electric batons.
