  • The Mysterious Death of Guizhou Province Practitioner Mr. Ye Fenglin at the Zhongba Forced Labour Camp

    44-year-old Mr. Ye Fenglin was persecuted at Zhongba Forced Labour Camp in 2002. In mid-June of 2002, he suffered sickness symptoms of fever and sweating. When he felt better two days later (on June 23rd), he was sent to the hospital of the labour camp, then passed away there on the night of June 26th. The person on duty that night at the hospital said, "He (Ye Fenglin) was chatting with us for a long time that evening, and went to bed after eleven o'clock. He was totally fine then. Why did he pass away so suddenly the next day? There must be some problems..." Upon his death, the authorities cremated Ye Fenglin's body without informing his wife (also a practitioner). Could the above evidence about Ye Fenglin's mysterious death have anything to do with the allegations of live organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners in China?
  • Husband Persecuted to Death, Wife Detained in a Forced Labour Camp

    On October 31str, 2001 when I was distributing leaflets exposing the persecution, policeman Wang Xiaodong saw me and arrested me. Officials from the County Public Security Bureau sentenced me to one year in a forced labour camp and sent me to the Heizhuizi Labour Camp in Changchun. The wardens there appeared decent on the surface but behind the scenes they did evil things with utmost cruelty and with no mercy at all. Practitioners were forced to work for sixteen or seventeen hours a day. If they couldn't finish the job or refused to cooperate, the wardens shocked them with electric batons. My husband was brutally persecuted in the Jiutai Labour Camp and his former liver disease relapsed. He passed away on November 28th, 2004.

  • Shengli Oil Field Brainwashing Centre: Darker than a Prison

    During the seven years of persecution where the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been persecuting Falun Gong practitioners, the brainwashing centres have been the most deceptive, even as they persecute the largest number of practitioners. The brainwashing centres are called "Legal and Discipline Education Centres" in public, and the people are misled by their deceitful methods. The public is led to believe that these classes are to educate Falun Gong practitioners. They are in fact brainwashing centres that the Chinese Communist Party uses to persecute Falun Gong practitioners.
