We were lucky that we got the message from our fellow practitioners in prison, just a tiny piece of paper stained with blood and tears. After reading it, I felt that I could not change their wording, but rather use it just as it is. Because they're recounting to the government, the people, their relatives, and fellow practitioners using their blood, tears, hearts and their immortal lives. The following are some reports:
************************************************************
I am a Falun Dafa practitioner. I was sent to a womens' labor camp at Qiqihar city in Heilongjiang Province because I legally appealed to the government. I have eye witnessed so many illegal things happening here. I want to tell the whole world, in order to avoid more innocent and good people from suffering this inhumane persecution, and to stop the evil. We firmly believe all governments, and every kind-hearted person; will lend us their support and help. The truth of Falun Gong will be revealed to the world eventually.
There are about 200 practitioners detained here. Each practitioner is isolated, and monitored by the criminals in the prison when he/she first arrives. According to what the criminals said, new rules were set up. If practitioners were found practicing the exercises, the prison terms of the criminals who are incarcerated with them will be increased. If criminals can convince practitioners to stop practicing Falun Gong or write a pledge, then the criminals' prison terms will be reduced. If a criminal can convince a practitioner to give up Falun Gong, then his prison term will be reduced even more. A 60 year-old Falun Dafa practitioner, Zhang Zhen Ran, was sent to a small room as soon as she was brought into the jail. Some criminals beat and cursed at Ms. Zhang everyday, and forced her to recite 65 prison rules in order to reduce their prison terms. She was forced to stand for hours if she missed a single word. The criminals also cursed at her using foul language. Once, prison guards struck her with an electric baton. She was hit on the mouth and the face. Fellow practitioners heard the sounds of the beating from far away. Then the prison guard put her arms behind her back and handcuffed her to the post of the bed. Her head was bent forward almost touching the ground, and her mouth was sealed with tape. The punishment lasted for more than ten hours. While the prison guard was beating her, he also cursed at her. "What's wrong with beating you? Beating to death is OK! Even if you accuse us, you will not win. This is the rule set up by Jiang Zemin." The crimes they committed are monstrous, extremely evil and totally inhuman.
Another practitioner, named Zhou Bing, is approximately 60 years old. Once, she was moving around in the prison yard. Because her movements appeared like she was practicing the exercises, some guards and a few criminals jumped on her. Her clothes and pants were torn to pieces. The skin on her abdomen was lacerated. The scar from the cut can still be seen on her abdomen now. The sound of beating, swearing, moaning and protesting mixed together, passed through the wall, and went out to the suburb. After Zhou Bing was sent back to the small room, the criminals in the same ward beat her again. After they became exhausted, they locked her hands and sealed her mouth with tape. They did not allow her to stand up or to sit down. They forced her to squat on her heels for one day and one night. The second day when she was released, her hands swelled enormously and lost all feeling. It took three months for her hands to become normal. However, her hands continue to feel numb at times and are uncontrollable. Once she was found practicing exercises, the guards and criminals jumped on her and held her down on the bed and beat her. After that, they were still unsatisfied with the evil things they had done. They used a rope to tie up her hands and hang her on a pole. Because she recited "Lunyu" quietly, her mouth was sealed and she was beaten with an electric baton. Under this situation, she thought that the guard was humiliating her human dignity, depriving her of her human rights and violating the law. So she started a hunger strike in order to obtain justice. In such an inhumane jail, a jail that violates the law, under the despotic power of jailers who are more evil than demons, a hunger strike is the only way to demonstrate unyielding resolution. However, the guards will not let you die easily. If they think that they have not tortured you and humiliated you enough, they will not give up making sport of you. So, they called the new organized "protecting team" to force-feed her, and intentionally made her nose and her upper jaw bleed. During the hunger strike, they deliberately assigned practitioners to do the heaviest and the filthiest manual labor, such as loading and unloading the waste truck and applying fertilizer to the field. They figured out all kinds of ways to torture practitioners. Dafa practitioners undergo a life-and-death test almost everyday, struggling under the tentacles of demons, struggling on the edge of death.
A practitioner, called Lin Chunfang (alias), about 30 years old, was handcuffed for 18 days and 17 nights because of practicing Falun Gong exercises. She was not allowed to sleep for three days and nights. She was under surveillance by other criminals. If she closed her eyes for a while or bent her legs a little, she would be kicked and punched. Facing these extremely inhuman tortures, she went on hunger strike to protect her own human rights. The guard force-fed her once every few days. The jail officer, Hong XX, personally beat her cruelly, and cursed while beating her: " You are nothing! I have dealt with lots of 'Falun Gong' who are much stronger than you are. We have lots of ways to deal with you guys. Even putting you to death is just like killing a chicken! It is nothing. We just need to fill out a form and hand it in, then everything will be OK. Jiang Zeming told us to do so. It is useless to accuse us."
A practitioner, named Wang Wen (alias), was handcuffed and fastened to an iron ring on the ground, with two arms behind her back because of doing Dafa exercises. The cruelest thing the guards did was to strip her of all of her clothes, leaving her wearing only her underwear. They opened the door and windows and let her be bitten by mosquitoes. Bushes and grass surrounded the jail and there are lots of big mosquitoes. We have not heard any news about her for more than twenty days. Some criminals seized Chen Linlin's hair (alias), dragged her onto the floor with her hands cuffed and kicked her. She was then handcuffed to a door. Even criminals can do this for the guard. The guards went to check the handcuffs and thought they were not tight enough. They blamed the criminals accusing them of being clumsy and did not know how to use the torture instruments. The guards then showed the criminals how to handcuff tightly. Soon, Chen Linlin's hands were bleeding severely. Later she was taken to the room for the entrance guard, where she experienced another heavy beating and was handcuffed to the heating pipes. After this torture, she was brought back to the small ward. Some criminals handcuffed her to the bedside. Her arms were fastened to the bed. She was kept in this posture for two days and nights. They would not release her unless she wrote a pledge letter.
Whoever treats the Falun Dafa practitioners the worst can obtain a reduced prison term. Guards encourage criminals to torture these innocent and kindhearted people. Li Ming (alias) is more than 60 years old. They did not leave her alone just because she is elderly. They cuffed and kicked her and delivering all sorts of penalties. Kong Fanying and some other practitioners suffered the same. We do not have the freedom of speech at all. We lost all of our rights as human beings. Our human dignity can be subjected to humiliation at will. We are not even equal to criminals. They are real criminals, but they can beat us violently and willfully. Actually we are not even equal to murderers, because they can also beat us and we cannot fight back. Of course, we will not fight back. Our only right is to conduct a silent hunger strike. However, this right has been deprived now. Now they stipulated that each time we hunger strike, it would result in the extension of the prison term by three months. They force-feed hunger strikers and forbid hunger strikes. They organized a so-called "protecting team" put specially in charge of force-feeding. They tied one practitioner up, pulled her hair, stepped on her body, pried open her mouth using an iron spoon or screw driver and forced fed the corn gruel through her mouth using half-cut plastic bottles. Lots of practitioners had their teeth pulled out, mouth injured, tongue swollen, and throat damaged.
All of the Dafa practitioners were put into a labor camp. Without exception, they suffered various degrees of miserable and inhumane treatment. A little carelessness will incur a savage penalty. In this so-called "socialist prison", in this so-called govern-by-law country, everyday, every minute, every second what we see are people committing crimes. The law enforcers violate the laws. Those jailers are inhuman evil, having a complete lack of human morals, and are utterly devoid of conscience. They think that they can evade the punishment for their monstrous crime by following Jiang Zemin. Pitiful creatures, please don't forget the ancient teachings: pay with your life if you kill a person; pay with your money if you owe someone a debt. The net of Heaven has a large mesh, but it lets nothing through. Even if there is no justice in this world, there are eyes in Heaven. The ultimate universal principle of good and evil is fair. We believe firmly that evil will not survive for long. The brightness will show up in the universe. In this dark moment before dawn, we just hope all kindhearted people can give us more help and understanding.
****************************************************************
The pouring out of our fellow practitioners' hearts stopped here because there is no more space to write on the paper. My tears were rolling down my cheeks like a fountain. I know that they still have a lot to tell the fellow practitioners outside. They want to tell their relatives and friends, they want to tell all the people in the world. They wrote it and sent it out under such ruthless and savage torture, despite the risking death. It represented the wishes of all Dafa practitioners in prison. They were recounting to the world, using their unyielding lives. Experiencing life-and-death tests everyday, they are still enduring silently with their benevolent behavior without hatred and regret. They are still using their great compassion and great forbearance to verify the truth, and they are climbing towards the summit of selflessness. They are expecting the awakened conscience of the "government". They are longing for the understanding and righteous thoughts of common people. They are looking forward to the support and help of their relatives and friends. They are expecting more fellow practitioners to step out and clarify the truth to the world. They are anticipating the rising and sublimation of human morality. People! Please wake up! Conscience, please come back!
