(Clearwisdom.net) The authorities at the Jiamusi Labor Camp are still persecuting the Dafa practitioners detained there. They force Dafa practitioners to write so-called "re-education contracts" and to work overtime. If a practitioner refuses, they extend their sentence and deprive them of the right to see relatives and to write letters to their families. In addition, practitioners are fed very little at the labor camp - the food provided is nothing but a steamed bun and water.
The practitioners who are being detained for an extended term include Bao Lixia, Fei Jinrong, Ma Xiaohua, Song Huilan, Zhang Yufang, Su Yanhua and Duan Xiuping.
Many of the detained practitioners are in poor health and for some, their lives are in danger:
Qi Xiulan is extremely weak. Dai Lixia suffers from coronary heart disease due to the persecution, but is still forced to work. Niu Yuhuan is confined to bed because of coronary heart disease.

They handcuffed these Dafa practitioners and tortured them for over 10 minutes. Because she declared the "five statements" invalid [the "five statements" are similar to the Guarantee Statement], Wang Qi was tortured until she lost consciousness. The police woke her up by poking her acupuncture points and then continued the torture. They also put a dirty cleaning rag into her mouth. Yu Wenbin slapped Ms. Wang forcefully, and Wang Qi passed out immediately. As a result of the beating, Ms. Wang could not take care of herself for several days.
