(Clearwisdom.net) On April 9, 2009, Beijing practitioner Mr. Liu Yujian was released from Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp in Hebei Province and sent to his original residence in Xinjiang. The labor camp policeman, Zhang Zhenyu, and a doctor(also a policeman) from the camp's clinic escorted Mr. Liu home. Mr. Liu's younger sister also traveled with them. Because he was tortured in the labor camp, Liu Yujian was extremely weak and all his bodily functions were near failure. On the train, he was unable to take in any food or water and had to depend on an intravenous injection to keep him going all the way to his destination.
Before Mr. Liu was released from Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp, he was given a thorough physical exam. After the exam the labor camp authorities immediately contacted his family and told them to come get him. They refused to tell the family any of the exam results Despite the family's continued requests for information, the camp did not give any clear explanation besides, "Not very good."
Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp turned an originally healthy man into a person near death. Moreover, the labor camp used Mr. Liu's critical health to force his family to accept its unreasonable demands.
Camp officials told his family that they were processing the paper work to get permission from their superiors to allow Mr. Liu to be temporarily released for medical treatment. According to them, it would take a while for the relevant documents to be mailed to his original residence in Xinjang. They allowed Mr. Liu to leave the camp now specifically to allow him some rest at home and also to visit his ill mother. The camp also made the family sign an agreement making the family responsible for covering all the medical expenses.
On April 11, Mr. Liu arrived in Xinjiang. The two officers from the labor camp went to the local police station to finish the paperwork. When the local police station learned about the state Mr. Liu's health, however, they refused to accept responsibility for him. The labor camp police officers then made some deals under the table so that the local police would accept the administrative transfer of responsibility for Mr. Liu.
Although Mr. Liu is now staying with his family, his parents, wife, and sisters are still very worried about him. The first thing the family is concerned about is when Mr. Liu Yujian will recover his health. The second issue is the ambiguous attitude of the Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp. This makes the family nervous. Will the labor camp take Mr. Liu away again if he regains his health?
Mr. Liu's mother is also very ill and confined to bed. Due to the years of the CCP's financial persecution of practitioners, Mr. Liu's family is very poor. It is impossible and beyond the family's financial ability to seek medical treatment for him, so now he is staying at home and trying to recover by himself.
The case of Liu Yujian is yet more evidence of Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp's persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. Since 1999, Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp has been known as one of the most notorious forced labor camps for its policies of persecution. During the most evil period, the labor camp detained nearly 500 practitioners. It uses cruel methods to torture practitioners, including violent beatings, electric shocks with water, force-feeding human waste to practitioners who are on hunger strike, putting snakes under practitioners' clothes, etc.. Several practitioners have been tortured to death in the camp.
