1. [Daqing, Heilongjiang Province] Daqing Forced Labor Camp Brutally Tortures Falun Dafa Practitioners
Between April 1 and July 10, 2002, Daqing Forced Labor Camp held a class known as the so-called "one hundred day safe transformation" where they used brutal and unsafe measures to force Falun Dafa practitioners to renounce their belief in Falun Dafa. In the labor camp's first squad, the chief, Lai Zhonghui, political instructor Wang Junping, vice-chief Wang Yingzhou and other police used sentence-reduction as the incentive to coerce the inmates to mercilessly beat and torture the practitioners for them. Many practitioners including Du Guocong, Bai Shuang, Xing Quanzhen, Xu Bin, and Ren Liang were injured. The police isolated practitioner Zhuang Gangxiang, and punished him by tying him to an iron chair, and beating him. Zhuang has not recovered since, often he has symptoms like spasms, his whole body becomes numb, and he can hardly walk. Dafa practitioner Liu Fubin is still in isolation and frequently encounters beatings and verbal abuse from the inmates.
The inmates who participated in the torture of Dafa practitioners included: Zhao Jinfa, Fei Qingwei, Huo Honghai, Li Chunlong, Zhao Junmin, Xing Lidong, Lu Shengchao, Huo Jian and so on.
