Crimes Committed in the Xinkaipu Forced Labor Camp

October 22, 2005 |   By a Falun Dafa practitioner in Hunan Province

(Clearwisdom.net)

All Falun Dafa practitioners sent to Xinkaipu Labor Camp in Hunan Province are forced to take off all their clothes and are searched as soon as they arrive. They are then immediately isolated. Three drug addicts are selected by the guards to closely monitor the practitioners. They don't step away from the practitioner even for a second, and start a systematic persecution.

These monitors tell lies and ridiculous theories to Dafa practitioners in an attempt to convince them and convert them. They couple threats with promises to force Dafa practitioners to write the so-called three statements and "one script" (i.e., Guarantee Statement, Repentance Statement, Exposure and Criticism Statement, and an exposure and criticism speech script). If the practitioner refuses to comply, he is beaten and kicked, deprived of sleep, and forced to stand for a long time.

If the practitioner goes on a hunger strike to resist the persecution, guards He Jun, Dou Xianglin and Liu Pingliang order the monitors to tie the practitioner to the operation table in the clinic. Dr. Yu in the labor camp then pries open his mouth with an expander. He turns the screw rods to hold the jaws open. Then he clamps the practitioner's tongue with a surgery grip. He inserts a bamboo tube into the mouth, and fills it with fluid, such as gruel or soup mixed with the rhizome of Chinese goldthread, an herb that tastes extremely bitter, salt or chili powder. After the forced-feeding, the guards order the monitors to slightly loosen the expander, move it a little bit to hold the front teeth, then they twist the screw rod to expand it so as to open the practitioner's mouth to its limit. When the Dafa practitioner can barely tolerate the pain, they force him to write the "three statements." Dafa practitioner Zhang Xianzhao's jaw was dislocated by this torture.

The guards frequently used high-voltage electric batons to shock the sensitive spots of Dafa practitioners who refused to compromise, or confine them in a solitary compartment. The Seventh and the Tenth Brigades in the labor camp specialize in torturing Dafa practitioners. Political instructors Li and Xiong in the Tenth Brigade shocked me with electric batons many times because I practiced the exercises and shouted "Falun Dafa is Good." They also tortured me with the "strait jacket." [1] They crossed and tied my hands and arms behind my back with handcuffs.

The guards ordered the monitors to hang up practitioner Zhang Xinjiang with his hands tied behind his back with a rope. They also tortured practitioner Yu Shaoqi until his ears were festering with sores. They shocked practitioner Xu Zuoyou on his legs with electric batons until he couldn't walk.

Now the guards in the Seventh Brigade organize the monitors to watch DVDs such as the staged "self-immolation" incident [2] to brainwash and poison them, and to stir up their hatred against Dafa and Dafa practitioners. They sing the Chinese Communist Party's evil songs.

The above is just the tip of the iceberg that I have personally witnessed. There is much more that I haven't witnessed.
