My Personal Experiences of Inhuman Torture in the Wuyuan County Forced Labor Camp, Inner Mongolia

Nov. 8, 2002

October 23, 2002

(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Mongolian and I started practicing Falun Dafa in 1997.

On July 23, 1999, police arrested all local Dafa practitioners in the area and detained us in the police station without valid reason. They also confiscated our Dafa books and exercise tapes. Under instructions from the deputy chief of the County Police Department, we were detained for 15 days and each "fined" 3,000 Yuan without being issued a receipt. Because of our strong requests, they reluctantly returned the "fine."

On November 1, 2000, in order to clarify the truth, we unfolded our hand-made Dafa banner on Tiananmen Square. The police rushed over and arrested us while we kindly told them "Falun Dafa is good." We were detained at Beijing's Police Department Section No. 9, where between three to four hundred Dafa practitioners were detained. Later, persons from the Wuyuan County Police Department took me back from Beijing, interrogated me and ransacked my home. Eleven days later I was sentenced to three years of forced labor.

On November 14, 2000, I was sent to the Wuyuan County Forced Labor Camp, Division No. 3 and assigned to the "closely monitored" group. Though my legs were swollen very badly, the guards still forced me to participate in military training non-stop, every day. In addition, since I refused to recite the camp regulations, guard Liu Jun forced me to stand outside in the freezing weather.

On February 4, 2001 I was transferred to Division No. 4, and was abused more severely. The guards tortured me by not allowing me to sleep. In the cold of winter, guard Liu Baohua and division director Wei Yuzhi woke me up every night at midnight and forced me to stand by the court wall to recite the so-call law regulations. This went on continuously for more than ten days.

On April 9, 2001, I was transferred to Division No. 1. I was monitored by specially assigned persons, and neither allowed to practice the exercises nor talk to others. They forced me to read materials and books defaming Falun Gong and fabricating lies against Falun Gong and my sentence was extended by three months because I refused to read them.

On January 31, 2002, with the excuse of performing a safety check, the guards took away Dafa materials from fellow practitioners Ma Yingchen, Li Zhenjiang and me. We requested them to return the materials to us and told them the principles of Dafa. They said it was ordered from higher authorities and refused our request. We went on a hunger strike to emphasize our request to get our materials back. They locked us up in separate rooms on the first floor with no blankets, beds or chairs. We had to lie on the floor.

On February 6, they tried to persuade me to take food and undergo a medical examination, but I refused. Guard Zhao Naiwei instigated two people to carry me to a solitary room and torture me. The vicious guards gagged me with a hand-towel, tied my hands and arms tightly and lifted them behind my neck. Instructed by guard Zhao Naiwei, eight to nine guards, including Zhang Qian, Wang Donglei, shocked me all over my body with four electric batons. When the electricity was used up, they would recharge the batons and keep shocking me. This went on for a long time. Then they tortured me by pulling the strings that tied up my arms. If the strings became lose from the pulling, they would tie me up tightly again. This went on for another hour. Failing to get what they wanted, the vicious guards cuffed my hands behind my back on a chair for one whole night.

On February 7, Chen Lei, Zhang Qian, Yan Hui, Zhang Dahua, and four or five other guards inserted a glucose transfusion bottle in between my back and two arms to further torture me, because this made the already tight binding even more painful to bear. In the meantime, they randomly shocked any part of my body with four electric batons in order to force me to write a statement that I would give up Dafa.

There will be retribution for evil and rewards for good deeds. I hereby solemnly warn those evil people that persecute and have persecuted Dafa practitioners: do not follow Jiang's regime and do evil anymore! If you do, the laws of man and the principles of heaven will definitely punish you in the near future.
