The Criminal Acts of Policemen from the Number Two Forced Labor Camp in Shandong Province

Aug. 14, 2004 |   By a Falun Dafa practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) On March 14, 2004, the No. 7 brigade leader Sun Fengjun (badge # 3731211) grabbed Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Du Yihe's head and smashed it against the wall for no apparent reason. Sun Fenjun is a policeman well known for his cruelty and is stationed at the No. 2 Forced Labor Camp in Shandong Province.

On April 4 and 5 of 2004, Mr. Yan Shulu was dragged to the back of the office, handcuffed and beaten by a group of policemen because he persisted on practicing the Falun Dafa exercises. The policemen involved were No. 7 brigade leader Qing Xusheng (badge #: 3731210), Zhang Tao (badge #: 3731221), and police officer with the surname of Feng (badge #: 3731254). Two of the officers violently dragged Mr. Yan by the arms when he was still handcuffed, while the third policeman continuously stuck his face.

In May 2004, Mr. Sun Haidong suffered brutal beatings from brigade leader Qing Xusheng because he openly declared he would continue to practice Falun Gong. Mr. Sun did not renounce his belief while being subjected to the beatings, but loudly shouted, "Falun Dafa is good!" For that, his hands and other parts of his body were shocked with electric batons.

On May 27 and 28, police officer Song Nan (badge #: 3731122) from the No. 7 brigade shocked practitioner Mr. Du Zhi's hands with electric batons until they were severely swollen. Also, the back of his hands developed large blisters that were so painful that he could not use his hands for his daily necessities such as eating or using the toilet.

On July 1, 2004, the labor camp again organized a so-called "intensive transformation group" in order to intensify the persecution against the detained practitioners. The labor camp adopted even crueler methods to torture practitioners, which included sleep deprivation, verbal abuse, beatings and other brutal methods to force practitioners to renounce their belief. Practitioners Du Zhi, Che Qicong, and others are currently being subjected to severe persecution.

In June of 2004, Yan Shulu was transferred to the "strict enforcement room" because he persisted in practicing the Falun Dafa exercises. The room, which is similar to a dungeon, is in the basement of No. 2 Forced Labor Camp. Still, Yan continued to practice the exercises. When he was brought back to the cell, fellow practitioner Du Yihe saw Yan's condition, and immediately went on a hunger strike to protest the inhumane persecution. Shortly after going on a hunger strike, Du Yihe suffered from force-feeding. Before this incident, the forced labor camp only gave the two practitioners one or two corn cakes every meal and no protein in their diet. The corn cakes contained very little nutritional value.

Practitioners detained at the No. 2 Forced Labor Camp in Shandong Province are forced to do hard labor regardless of their age. Beginning June 28, they have been given only half hour lunch breaks. However, many in some brigades are not given any break time during lunch. But when preparing the monthly report, the police always lie and record that Sundays and holidays are rest days for practitioners, when in fact they never get a day of rest. The police fear their brutal persecution of Dafa practitioners will be exposed and go to great lengths to cover up the truth.

Currently all the practitioners illegally detained at the forced labor camp have the courage to shout, "Falun Dafa is good!" For that, the police have been depriving the practitioners of sleep, and punching and kicking them. A policeman from the No. 7 brigade, Gao Wei, beat up practitioner Qin Zhenquan because he courageously shouted, "Falun Dafa is good!"
