The forced labor camps in Guangzhou City, including the male camp in Huadu and the female camp in Cuotou, employ a brutal means of torture used by police in the north, in order to forcibly brainwash Falun Dafa practitioners. To begin with, they detain practitioners separately in dark rooms. They don't provide food or allow practitioners to go to sleep for the first few days, until practitioners are totally exhausted and weak. Then they use strips of cloth or rope to tie practitioners so tightly that the bonds cut into practitioners' flesh. It makes people feel extremely miserable. People who are subjected to this means of torture may lose the use of their arms and legs from lack of blood circulation if they are not untied every single hour. Some practitioners' legs become disabled due to this torture.

During the meeting, several pages of illegal documents and a list of the names of over 100 Falun Dafa practitioners in the county were distributed. Since then, people from work units, neighborhood committees, and local police substations have harassed many practitioners.

It is in vain however, since most practitioners have left their homes with righteous thoughts. A few practitioners who didn't get a chance to leave in time clearly answered "Yes" when asked whether they were still practicing Falun Dafa. As a result, the evil failed to achieve their goal.
