(1) The forced labor camp regulations stipulated that Falun Gong practitioners were not allowed to talk to one another or to practice the Falun Gong exercises. To prevent practitioners from exercising, the authorities forced them to sleep in the same room with criminal inmates who monitored their activities. Whenever practitioners went to eat or to use the bathroom, three criminal inmates always escorted them. According to labor camp regulations, inmates were constantly evaluated under a merit system that assigned three points per day to each inmate. Points were awarded or deducted depending on how well the inmates complied with the regulations. For example, if the ranking guard on duty were to discover that Falun Gong practitioners had not been properly escorted, the inmates acting as monitors would lose points.
(2) Stomach Paralysis - Formally called gastroparesis, this is a medical condition in which the stomach muscles are paralyzed by a disease of either the stomach muscle itself or the nerves controlling the muscle. As a consequence, food and secretions do not empty normally from the stomach, and the practitioner experiences nausea and vomiting.
