3. [Jilin Province] Wang Huilian and Zhao Shuqin are Extremely Weak Due to Torture at the Jilin Province Women's Forced Labor Camp

For the past few years, personnel from the Jilin Province Women's Forced Labor Camp have been persecuting practitioners and carrying out the inhumane policy of so-called "reformation," inciting inmates to monitor practitioners and torture them around the clock.

The morning of July 12, 2005, inmate Yan Shuyan from the No. 4 Division beat practitioners Li Yongjun, Zhang Xiuling, Jin Min and Ms. Wang Huilian, a lecturer at Northeastern China Normal University. She was tortured the most severely. Since April 21, 2005, Ms. Wang has staged a hunger strike. To date it has been five months. Ms. ang has become extremely weak. Her term expired on September 8. When her family members came to pick her up, however, the personnel at the labor camp refused to release her. A few days later Yang Shuyan beat Ms. Wang badly again. At present, Wang Huilian's life is in peril.

Policeman Liu Zhiwei handcuffed practitioner Ms. Zhao Shuqin, in her 50's, put pills in her mouth, hung her up and shocked her with electric batons. Ms. Zhao Shuqin has become extremely weak.

4. [Heilongjiang Province] Ms. Wang Rongyuan Sentenced to One Year of Forced Labor at the Jiamusi City Forced Labor Camp

Practitioner Ms. Wang Rongyuan from Dongfeng County, 26 years old, graduated from the Computer Department at Jilin Province International Language & Culture University in 1999.

At present she is being held at the Jiamusi City Forced Labor Camp in Heilongjiang Province.

6. [Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province] Ms. Li Hua Sentenced to One Year of Forced Labor for Clarifying the Truth of Falun Dafa to Coworkers

During the afternoon of July 15, 2005, personnel from the Security Section at the Xi'an Electrical Capacitor Factory and from the National Security Team in the Lianhu District Branch Police Department accosted practitioner Ms. Li Hua, an employee of the factory. They took her to the Security Section of the factory and threatened her. Their justification for this action was that Ms. Li was clarifying the truth of Falun Dafa and showing Falun Dafa truth-clarifying materials to her colleagues. They put her into the Xi'an Switch Factory Hotel for interrogation the whole night. The next morning they took Li Hua home and ransacked her home. They didn't notify any of her family members and none of her family was present during the illegal search. Her husband came back afterwards. People who ransacked the house told Li Hua's husband that they didn't find anything. They took Ms. Li to the Lianhu District Detention Center that same day. On August 18 Ms. Li called her husband and told him that she had been transferred to a forced labor camp for three days and she was sentenced to one year of forced labor.

11. [Baoding City, Hebei Province] Baoding Forced Labor Camp Authorities Enslaved Detained Practitioners

All female practitioners detained in the Baoding City Forced Labor Camp were forced to work overtime at night after a full day of work. The authorities claimed that the practitioners didn't finish their work in the daytime, so they had to work overtime. The authorities showed a fake timetable to the leaders who came to inspect and said that practitioners only worked six hours a day, but in fact the practitioners were forced to work over 10 hours. The police guards in that camp threatened the practitioners that they would extend their detention terms by one day for every day the practitioners refused to work. Thus, the guards would profit from the additional work.

Seven practitioners are being held in the "Restricted Administration Class," including Ms. Zhang Lanfen, Ms. Guo Guiju, Ms. Dong Chunling, Ms. Dang Huiying, Ms. Liu Huiyun, and two others. One of them is a senior practitioner from Baoding City. They were forced to work from 5:00 a.m. till 11:00 p.m. The guards don't allow practitioners to talk to each other. A few months ago a female practitioner from Yi County was sent to the Baoding City Forced Labor Camp. Nine people tried to brainwash and reform her, but this fellow practitioner went on a hunger strike to protest her illegal detention. The guards force-fed her and tortured her with the "dead-person's bed."
