Mrs. Cao Aihua from Xinjiang Autonomous Region Murdered Six Months Ago -- Local Authorities Issue a Resolution to Cremate Her Body and Destroy the Evidence
2007-05-28
On November 13th, 2006, Dafa practitioner Cao Aihua was tortured to death at the Wujiaqu Women's Forced Labour Camp after she was detained there for ten days. When cleaning his wife's body after her death, Mrs. Cao's husband found a large bruise around her waist. He believes that his wife died of internal injuries from severe beatings. During the past half a year, Cao's family has appealed to the police and justice departments, the jail administration bureau, the people's congress and the appeal office in Xinjiang. They demanded that the murderers be brought to justice. The women's forced labour camp wanted to settle the case privately, but Cao's family refused their offer. On May 16th, 2007, the authorities issued a resolution proclaiming that they would cremate Cao Aihua's body if Cao's family did not so themselves within two weeks. Cao's family felt very grieved and indignant. -
Mr. Cheng Huazheng's Life in Danger in Zhongba Forced Labour Camp in Guizhou Province
2007-05-28In order to "transform" Falun Dafa practitioners, the guards in the Zhongba Forced Labour Camp torture them inhumanly by forcing them to do things such as stand without clothes in the winter, run great distances while wearing heavy coats in the summer, or stand for days on end when deprived of the right to sleep. They have also done things like pouring icy cold water on them in the winter, burning their faces by pouring boiling water over them, beating them brutally, and forcing them to sniff heroin. The guards openly said, "It is nothing to kill several, we have a quota of practitioners we are allowed to kill." Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Cheng Huazheng's life is in danger due to torture he suffered. -
Endless Nightmare: My Experience at the Beijing Women's Forced Labour Camp
2007-05-28I was abducted by local authorities in 2001 because I had been distributing leaflets exposing the persecution. I was later imprisoned in the Beijing Women's Forced Labour Camp for a year and a half. Whenever I recall those days at the labour camp, it's as if reliving a nightmare for me. More than twenty of us were locked in one room of thirteen or fourteen square metres. It was the same room in which we made disposable chopsticks during the day, for one-time use at restaurants. The guards set heavy workloads for everyone, so those who were elderly or slower than others would have to work until three o'clock in the morning. The guards also ordered drug addict inmates to torture Dafa practitioners. Some inmates tore at practitioner's mouths until they bled, others stuck wooden sticks into practitioners' private parts. -

State Security Agents Demanded That I Be an Informant
2007-05-23In July 2003, members of the 610 Office talked to me. The main point was to demand that I become an informant and spy by taking pictures and monitoring the activities of Falun Gong in Germany.

When I called home to China several days later, the line did not sound right. It was confirmed later that my home phone in China was being monitored. -

Practitioners Tortured in Suihua Forced Labour Camp
2007-05-21Prison officials Liu Wei and Diao Xuesong used toothpicks to stab Falun Gong practitioner Peng Chen's fingers and legs. His legs now no longer function normally, so he has to use his hands to move his legs. Another practitioner, Miao Shujung was beaten so badly that he has not been able to eat anything since. Whatever he eats he throws up. He used to weigh 209 pounds, but after being tortured he now only weighs 132 pounds. Due to his serious condition, they finally released him to receive medical treatment. It will be a wonder if he can survive. Another practitioner, Li Cangxin, was tortured so severely that he now needs assistance to walk.
