1. Captain Yan Lifeng Tortured Ms. Zhang Bo

On July 3, 2007, Yan Lifeng, First Brigade Captain in Heizuizi Women's Forced Labor Camp, along with guards, tortured Ms. Zhang Bo with electric batons for over three hours. Yan also borrowed another electric baton from the Seventh Brigade. The borrowed baton was still hot when it was returned.

When Zhang Bo was being tortured, even from upstairs she could be heard shouting, "Falun Dafa is good!" The torture went on for ten days, from July 3 to July 12. Shouts of "Falun Dafa is good" were heard intermittently until September 8, when she was carried out for forced feeding. On September 11, Yan Lifeng and his henchmen took her to the police hospital. Zhang Bo hasn't been seen since then.

2. The Sixth Brigade Enforces Ten-Hour Work Days

The Sixth Brigade of Heizuizi Women's Forced Labor Camp has been forcing practitioners to work for more than ten hours a day. It has also been torturing the practitioners by forcing them do "bench sitting" from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

3. Practitioners in the Seventh Brigade Are Forced to Work Overtime; Guard Zou Jialin Tortured Ms. Liu Xiuzhi

Practitioners have been forced to work from 7:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., or even 10:00 p.m. if more work needed to be done.

Because she spoke out in defense of others, practitioner Ms. Liu Xiuzhi was tortured by guard Zou Jialin. She used a plastic instrument to hit Ms. Liu on the head. Ms. Liu's head swelled up and hurt for several days.

In the Seventh Brigade, Zou Jialin was in charge of two small teams doing forced labor production. As long as she was on duty, practitioners were closely monitored.

Qiang Tongqin is the production captain in this brigade. In his labor record book, he wrote down that every Wednesday is his interview day, that Saturdays and Sundays are rest days, and that labor is done only five to six hours each day with rest breaks taken at noon. But these records do not reflect the true situation at all.

On Chinese New Year's eve in 2007, Hou Zhihong, the Seventh Brigade captain, assaulted practitioner Ms. Ming Yongling with an electric baton and verbally abused her for no reason.
