(Clearwisdom.net) The brainwashing center in Suining County, Jiangsu Province is under the jurisdiction of the local 610 Office, which actively persecutes Falun Gong practitioners. The perpetrators trample the law and use various cruel and inhuman means to persecute Falun Gong practitioners.

A sign reading, "Suining Police Department" is hung in the building of the brainwashing center. Inside, there is an interrogation room (torture room) and two "repentance rooms." The repentance room is rectangular in shape and is less than two square meters. An iron ring is bolted to the ground, used for handcuffing the practitioners. The door has steel bars. It is managed entirely as a prison. The authorities force practitioners to "attend classes," do exercises, do forced labor, and wear numbered uniforms.
Practitioners are imprisoned in cells when they are not being tortured. Each cell is about 8-9 square meters in size and is used as the place for eating, drinking, and using the toilet. The windows are boarded up with plywood. Monitors are assigned to guard the practitioners around the clock. The director of the local 610 Office, Tong Taibin, has attended conferences in Beijing, and has twice gone to Nanjing Forced Labor Camp to learn brainwashing techniques. The brainwashing center was twice assessed as a "model unit" for the province. The other director of the 610 Office, Yang Shuguang, said once that the national 610 Office would notify them directly whenever a TV program slandering Falun Gong was to be aired.
The practitioners who were brought to Suining Brainwashing Center come from various districts, cities, and counties in Jiangsu Province. The evil would extort money from practitioners. The practitioners from outside Suining County had to turn in two thousand yuan each month and the locals pay 700 yuan. Some practitioners from the countryside had no money, so their crops would be plundered by the officials as payment. Practitioners who refused to give up Falun Gong would be forced to walk the street with a big sign hanging from their necks.
So-called "attending class" is to force practitioners to listen to, watch and read propaganda against Dafa and to sing Chinese Communist Party songs. So-called "doing exercises" is to get the practitioners out of the cell at 6:00 a.m. and have them run two laps in the yard first. Then they are forced to walk military style, with their legs extending straight out and lifted at a 45 degree angle. If one cannot do it well, he is whipped from behind. If practitioners refuse to comply, the punishment can range from being beaten to being dragged into the "repentance room" where one would be handcuffed for up for 48 hours. The brainwashing center forces practitioners to do hard labor planting vegetables. The vegetables are consumed only by the prison officials who never let the practitioners have any. Practitioners are forced to wear numbered uniforms.
The practitioners asked, "We follow Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance to be good people. We did no wrong and committed no crime. Why do you imprison us and abuse us? Aren’t you violating the law and committing a crime yourself?" One staff person named Zhou Bao said shamelessly, "You did not commit any crime, but practicing Falun Gong is treason. We are going to defame you, and break you financially... So what if we did commit crimes and violate the law. Why don’t you go sue us?"
The practitioners protested and refused to go to the "class" or do exercises, and went on a hunger strike instead. The perpetrators then persecuted the practitioners like mad. Some practitioners were handcuffed to the basketball hoop and some were handcuffed to chairs in the "repentance room."
Mr. Xu Chunlong was handcuffed in the "repentance room" for 48 hours. He was beaten and had bruises all over his face and body.
Ms. Yuan Ling was beaten until her eyes swelled and could not open. Her eyes were badly bruised. The perpetrators also forced water into her nostrils to torture her.
Ms. Jia Huili was beaten and was bedridden for two weeks as a result. She needed help to walk even after two-and-a-half months.
Ms. Xie Hengjie was beaten and blood covered her face. She was dragged to the "repentance room" and handcuffed for 48 hours.
Mr. Wei Xingshe was beaten unconscious, but the evildoers poured cold water over him to wake him up and continued with their beating. Afterwards they dragged him into the "repentance room" and handcuffed him with his arms behind his back for 48 hours. Mr. Wei did not come to until after four hours.
Ms. Bian Guiju was handcuffed in the "repentance room" for nine days straight, including nights.
One night in Mid-December, they stripped Mr. Zhou Dongshan of his clothes and tied him to a tree to let him freeze. He refused to wear the numbered uniform and was beaten, and now walks with a limp.
Mr. Tong Pengkai was arrested because he printed, "Falun Dafa Is Great" on utility poles. Several policemen took turns beating him for 24 hours. He almost died from the beating.
Ms. Chen Li, Liu Fang, and Xu Chunling were tied with both hands behind their back and then suspended from trees with thin nylon ropes. They were hung in such a way that their feet barely touched the ground. They were barefooted in the middle of the cold winter. They struggled because of the pain. The monitors taped their mouth shut. Policemen Yan Hongjun and Cao Guangfeng molested the female practitioners who were handcuffed.
To cover up its crimes and to continue with its lies, the 610 Office, along with the Jiangsu Province TV station came to the brainwashing center to make some films in July and August of 2002. They dragged the practitioners out and forced them to play badminton, chess, and cards. Brainwashing class instructor Bai Suping pretended to wash clothes for the practitioners. After the filming, the practitioners were immediately locked back up in the cells.
