Dafa practitioner Bian Chunyan from Fuxin City, Liaoning Province recounts a personal persecution experience:
In October 2000, I went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa and was arrested. I was sent to a detention center and held for nine days. I was then sentenced to two years of forced labor and sent to the Fuxin Forced Labor Camp. Guards at the labor camp shock Dafa practitioners with electric batons, torture them with the "riding an airplane" torture (forcing them to raise their arms with their head lowered), deprive them of sleep, force them to step on Master's picture, and other such violations of human dignity. The guards ordered collaborators (2) to persuade the steadfast Dafa practitioners to give up Dafa practice. In January 2002 I was sent to the Masanjia Labor Camp to be persecuted. I had done things a practitioner should not do because I had many attachments that were not given up. Subsequently, in May 2003, I published a solemn declaration on Minghui.net and rejoined the current of Fa rectification. Later, I was sent to a detention center and held for a month. I was released after the police extorted 3,000 Yuan from my family.
