(Clearwisdom.net) Practitioners at Panjin Forced Labor Camp, Liaoning Province, have been subjected to many different kinds of tortures. To resist the persecution, practitioners Xin Minduo and Feng Baojia have been on a hunger strike for 110 days and are near death. During the hunger strike, policeman Tang Xiaobiao punched and kicked them on their lower backs, backsides, and faces, until they bled.

Feng Baojia became unconscious as a result of the torture and being force-fed. The details are unknown because the police have been blocking the flow of information.

Policeman Chen Changli kicked and punched practitioner Liu Guangqing. Led by Chen, inmate Zhong Gang also joined in, hanging Liu Guangqing by his hands from the top of a gate. Even under such brutal torture, Liu continued to clarify the truth to them.

We, practitioners from Panjin City, urgently demand the staff of Panjin Forced Labor Camp to stop the brutal persecution, and release all practitioners. We also appeal to international human rights organizations and righteous people all over the world to voice their concern over this issue and help stop the killing.

Practitioners who read this, please send forth righteous thoughts and help our fellow practitioners leave this forced labor camp.
