In the following report, a Falun Gong practitioner who was subjected to gross, persecution-related abuse at Jiamusu City Labor Camp, exposes the incidents he witnessed and verifies the tragic death of Falun Gong practitioner Wu Chunlong, who died at the hands of Jiamusi Labor Camp persecutors over a year ago.

Mr. Wu Chunlong was illegally sentenced to three years of forced labor for practicing Falun Gong.

During the winter of 2000, the police removed all his clothing and poured cold water on him outside, when the temperature was 20 degrees Celsius below zero (-4 degrees Fahrenheit). When another detained Falun Gong practitioner questioned guard Guo Gang about this atrocity, Guo lied, saying, "I cannot believe this happened. I vouch with my life that this is not so!"

Wu Chunlong was later sentenced to another three years of forced labor. This time he did not survive. Guards Liu Hongguang and Guo Gang killed him because Wu Chunlong was discovered carrying Falun Gong articles. Guard Liu Hongguang issued a command to torture him at will. Liu asked whether Mr. Wu would agree to obey their instructions. Wu Chunlong said, "Falun Gong practitioners did not violate any criminal law, why follow unreasonable instructions?" Liu Hongguang ordered, "Since he will not obey, torture him!"

Wu Chunlong was detained in Room Eight on the north side of the building. Two criminals, Wang Fu and Zhao Yancai, tortured him for more than a month. He suffered much during that time. Someone always guarded the door, to keep people from seeing what took place inside. Only at meal-time or clean-up time could one take a glance. I often saw the guards shutting the wide-opened windows and door when I got off work. I was eventually subjected to the same persecution, and I realized that they did this purposely to freeze Mr. Wu but were afraid of others seeing this. Every day, Wang Fu and Zhao Yancai carried Wu Chunlong to the washroom, took off his clothing and poured cold water over him. Being doused with water during the winter is extremely cruel! One freezes instantly.

Because Wu Chunlong maintained a continuous hunger strike, the evildoers kept the inserted nasal tube in place and filled it with a large amount of a mixture containing powdered milk and lots of saline-solution. They eventually handcuffed Wu to a bed so that he could not move. The concentrated saline solution was toxic to Wu Chunlong's internal organs, which were severely injured. He lost control of his bowels and bladder. However, Guo Gang told everyone, "Wu Chunlong is so bad that he intentionally urinated on the bed." Wang Fu and Zhao Yancai also deprived Wu Chunlong of sleep during the night. They tortured him if he fell asleep.

We often heard Wu Chunlong shout, "Falun Dafa is good!" A couple of time these shouts were suddenly interrupted, because criminal Wang Fu had taped his mouth shut with adhesive tape.

Wu Chunlong was released when he was close to death, but he was suffering from renal failure. He died shortly after his returning home.

Practitioner Wu Chunlong had suffered from inhuman persecution for such a long time. In addition, two criminals often used brutal methods to choke him, blocked his mouth and dug at his eyes. Abuser Zhao Yancai also used a bed board to beat him. This caused Wu Chunlong to lose consciousness. He was abused to the point of being at death's door. Massive, concentrated saline-solution force-feeding caused Wu Chunlong renal failure, and he died shortly after returning home. The labor camp team leader, however, fabricated a rumor saying, "Wu Chunlong developed neurosis and was bailed out for medical treatment."

Once, when the guards had beaten prisoner Wang Fu, he said that the guards were responsible for Wu Chunlong's death as a result of the persecution, but they made him be the scapegoat.

Liu Hongguang is the most evil person in this camp. When he was the women's team leader, two practitioners were hung up and beaten. When he became leader of the male team, he sent practitioner Zhang Changming to the collective training team. The guards and criminals there ended up beating him to death.

This time when Wu Chunlong was persecuted so severely, it eventually resulted in his death. Liu Hongguang was the primary murderer. He was later promoted to be the Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary of the labor camp. He said, "I got this promotion because I made contributions to persecuting you Falun Gong practitioners."

Guo Gang is an evildoer who was extremely vicious toward the practitioners. Supported by the evildoing Party, he persecuted practitioners through brainwashing. He said, "I was chosen by the team leader and am responsible for "reform" work." He was very pleased with this and devoted himself to the persecution. He often sang, "The Party has unlimited expectations for me." When Wu Chunlong's life was in danger, Guo Gang was afraid of getting into trouble that would prove disadvantageous for him. He told practitioners, "Persecuting Wu Chunlong was done by Wang Fu! We police were not involved in it." He also said, "You said that I will meet with karmic retribution. I do not believe that the Communist Party is going down. What can you do about me!" When he chatted with a criminal, he was heard to say, "I also admit that Falun Gong is good, truly good! The only thing is that a few people went on the wrong path."

Though he clearly knew that Falun Gong was good, he still betrayed his heart and soul. Later, Guo was promoted to become a team political head. Once, because I did not call him by his title, he was very irritated and ordered me to go to his office, "From now on, you call me 'Political Head!' If you don't, it means you do not respect me." I replied, "Do you respect others? You make me sit on a stool until my buttocks are festering! Do you respect me? You open a Falun Gong book and put our Master Li's portrait under my buttocks. Does that mean you respect me? Are you persecuting me or respecting me?"

Afterwards, I learned that practitioner Wu Chunlong had already died as a result of the persecution.

Yang Chunlong, originally a political head, succeeded Liu Hongguang as team leader after his transfer. Yang is hypocritical with the local practitioners. He manipulated people behind their backs. However, with those from other counties he is brazen regarding the persecution. In 2005, a Falun Gong practitioner from Daqing City who was over 60 years old was found meditating on a bed. He slapped this older practitioner on the face as soon as he saw him.

Yang Chunming is a person good at telling tales. He worked hard for the persecution. It was said that he was in the collective training team before and was one of the guards who incited the criminals to beat practitioner Zhang Changming to death. He is also a gambler, which led to his divorce.

Li Fuguo, another evildoing individual, frequently slandered Falun Gong and Master Li. He did so many evil things that not only he but also his family members suffered several kinds of illnesses. His wife contracted encephalorrhagia at age thirty. However, he was unrepentant and dared not acknowledge that this happened as karmic retribution.

Wang Fu is a thief who was a fugitive for many years. He was good at cheating. He was in his forties, and a vicious persecutor. He was used by guard Guo Gang and was one of the murderers who abused Wu Chunlong so severely that he died.

This labor camp has two rooms on the north side, which are specifically used to persecute steadfast Falun Gong practitioners. During incidents of abuse, no one was permitted to be present. Once, when they tortured Zhao Qingxiang, I tried to look through the small 10 cm x 30 cm window. Guard Yang Chunming roared at me and stopped me. I even had an argument with him because of this. Wu Chunlong had been tortured in Room Eight on the north side for more than one month, until he was at death's door and was sent home, as stated above. Then they used similar methods to persecute me and wanted to make me into the second Wu Chunlong.

In September 2004, I had worked in Hegang City. Officers from the Nanyi Police Station in the Xiangyang District in Hegang City arrested me. My wife and I were both sentenced to three years of forced labor and sent to the Jiamusi Forced Labor Camp. We suffered from brutal persecution at the hands of guards Guo Gang, Yang Chunming and others. To make me give up my belief in Falun Gong, they roughly handcuffed me onto a bed. My cotton trousers were taken off and I was forced to sit on a large thread spool. They also brought a Falun Gong book, opened it to the page with Master Li's portrait on it and put it under my buttocks. Later, Guo Gang and criminals took turns smoking and then blew the smoke toward my face. They said, "You, Falun Gong do not smoke. We let you smoke!"

They forced me to sit for a very long time on the thread spool. Because there were some protruding screws, my buttocks were bruised, and blood and flesh stuck to my underwear. Later when they forced me to sit on a small stool, I refused. They forcibly handcuffed me to the bed headboard. Yang Chunming lifted my legs up, put the stool under my buttocks and threw my legs into the air. They tried to make me to fall but failed twice. At this time Liu Hongguang came by and said, "What do you want to do? Your Falun Gong is nothing!" I said, "You are a ghost from hell. When the time comes, you all will go to hell!" Liu was so angry that he beat me rampantly. After he had slapped my face several times, saying I didn't yield at all, he squatted before me and hit my nose with the back of his hand, over and over. My nose bled.

I began shouting loudly, "Falun Dafa is good!" Liu Hongguang made a criminal gag me with a cloth strip and wiped the blood off of my face, nose, body and floor. Because I refused to sit on the small stool, they handcuffed me onto a bed. Guo Gang had by then urged Liu Zhimin, who gave up Falun Gong and went to the opposite side, to persuade me to give up Falun Gong. I drove him away assertively. Guard Li Fuguo often opened the window to freeze me. It was 20 to 30 Celsius degrees below zero (-4 to -22 degrees Fahrenheit). The window would be open for more than half an hour. This lasted for twenty days. The Chinese New Year was approaching. They still could not "reform" me so they gave up.

Around July 2005, I was persecuted once again by guard Yang Chunming. That day my family had just visited me. I came back to the cell and spoke with fellow practitioners about some issue of Falun Gong. The guards eavesdropped on our conversation and shouted from outside, "The labor camp has a rule, forbidding any mention of Falun Gong, don't you know?" I said, "This kind of thing is nonsense! You don't let me speak, and don't let me look into the neighboring cell. I have my mouth, my eyes and my ears. What I want to say, to look at, to hear are all controlled by my brain. This is our utmost basic right." He made me go to his office and called Guo Gang and Yang Chunlong to come in. He asked, "Do you dare repeat what you just said?" I said, "More than once -- I dare to say it ten times, a hundred times! I practice Falun Gong and think about Falun Gong and talk about Falun Gong. Each cell in my body is part of Falun Gong. How is it thus possible that you try to prevent me from expressing myself?"

Guard Yang Chunlong ordered, "What we have to do is strictly monitor you! Cuffs!" Three or four guards and three or four criminals joined together and tied me onto a chair. Guo Gang and Yang Chunming also hit me on the head with his fist and kicked me. Wang Fu also maliciously hit my head from the back with his fist. The back of my head has a large swollen area.

This gross abuse has left a permanent scar at the corners of my mouth and has become permanent testimony to my persecution at the Jiamusi Forced Labor Camp.

From then on I started to protest by going on a hunger strike. They handcuffed me to a chair for two days and one night. Later I was handcuffed onto a bed and force-fed. The solution was the same as mentioned above -- powdered milk in a strong saline solution. The saline solution was quite dark and looked dirty. I resisted the force-feeding. Three guards -- Guo Gang, Yang Chunming and Li Fuguo, urged the criminals to force-feed me. Trying to reduce his term, prisoner Wang Fu aided and abetted Guo Gang. He put one of his legs on me, and pushed on my head with his hands. Li Xuena (clinic manager) attempted to insert a rubber tube into my nose. I did not cooperate. Li Xuena wickedly shouted loudly, "This is not working! Hurry! Push! Push! Push!" So, Wang Fu put two hands on my head and pushed. The skin on my chin was broken.

Because the handcuffs prevented me from doing anything with my hands, I shouted loudly, "Falun Dafa is good!" Wang Fu choked my neck with both hands. I was almost suffocated. Li Xuena took this chance to brutally insert the rubber tube into my nose and into my stomach. Because what they fed me had so much salt, my stomach could not hold it and I vomited it all out.

This excruciating treatment was repeated every time. After several incidents like this, having too much salt accumulate in my body and being denied drinking water, excessive thirst made it difficult to breathe. I opened mouth but could barely breathe. Seeing me like this, Wang Fu choked my neck even tighter. I was almost choked to death several times. Sometimes he rolled a sock up and stuffed it in my mouth. He said, "I have ways to make you uncomfortable!" Another time, while another criminal wasn't paying attention, he secretly did evil things to me. He used his thumb to push my eyes hard. The pain went through my heart. I asked, "You are homeless. Nobody cares about you. Only our Falun Gong practitioners take care of you. Why you are so inhuman?" He answered, "Right! I am inhuman. I want to be an evil person like this. I eat you, drink you, and turn my head over to torture you. I take orders from the upper ranks and delegate to the lower level. The government will reduce my term. Let me tell you -- if you do not "reform", you will be dead. It is all right if you are dead. All I need to do is to fill out a death report. Nobody will be concerned."

The look of Wang Fu is a manifestation of the evil Party. Wu Chunlong had already been killed. The murderers did not receive a penalty. It is so common to kill a person. However, the information was tightly blocked. The death of Wu Chunlong was not known from inside at that time. So, at that time, they wanted to kill me the same way as they did Wu Chunlong. But compared to Wu Chunlong, I am lucky. During the twenty days that I was persecuted, my family knew of it and assertively demanded to visit me, so these evildoers had to stop.

Wang Fu was released before his due date for persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. Before he left he told other criminals, "Do it! You'll get a reward. Look at me! Released before the due date. These Falun Gongs deserve torture. Torture them! Look how much leaders Yang and Guo Gang reduced my term!"

Several days after this hoodlum was released, he went to a Falun Gong practitioner family for the purpose of deception, but failed. Nowadays the wicked Party is using these bad people to persecute good persons like us who follow the Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. It thoroughly exposes the evil nature of the Communist Party.

 On July 5, 2006, Falun Gong practitioner Mr. Shi Fafu from Changyi City (under Weifang City), Shandong Province was arrested by local "610 Officer" agents and sent to a forced labor camp where he was tortured until he was very weak. He died on November 14, 2006

Mr. Shi Fafu, 66, lived in Mengwa Village, in the Duchang Street Neighborhood Administration, Changyi City. He was illegally arrested on February 1, 2001 by policemen from the Duchang Street Neighborhood Police Station and released after being extorted out of ten thousand yuan. In 2003, Mr. Shi was reported and chased many times by the Chinese Communist Party officials. He was forced to become destitute and homeless in order to avoid being illegally arrested at home. His house was often monitored.

On July 4, 2006, Mr. Shi Fafu returned home and was immediately reported. On July 5, 2006, Changyi City 610 officers arrested him and sent him to the Wangcun Labor Camp in Weifang City. He was forced to do heavy labor, became very weak, and was released home after a doctor could not treat him any more. He died on November 14, 2006 at home.

Mr. Yu Ming was arrested on March 3, 2006. Since that time, no one had heard anything about his whereabouts until not long ago when the Minghui/Clearwisdom website published the news that he was jailed in Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp in Beijing.

This is the third time that he has been imprisoned in Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp since the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started the persecution of Falun Gong. Police officers in this camp implemented various means of brutal torture for practitioners. In the face this treatment, Mr. Yu manifested the characteristics of fearlessness and great endurance. By not yielding he showed that a righteous spirit cannot be insulted.

Yu Ming distributed truth clarification materials on January 1, 2001, and was arrested and sent to the Dongshen Police Station in the Haidian District, Beijing. Without any legal process, the authorities then sent him to the Haidian Detention Center. While in the detention center, they tortured him with a tool called the "dog chain." Both his hands and feet were chained together with thick heavy shackles that were specially made for this torture They also brutally forced-fed him in this center.

On January 25, 2001, they sent him to the dispatch division at Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp. Yu Ming and other practitioners were faced with brutal tortures, physically and mentally in this dispatch division. He described his experiences during that period in his article below:

"On January 25, 2001, I was taken to Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp located in the Daxing District in Beijing. Since then, I have performed slave labor.

"Once I entered the gate, a group of armed guards surrounded me and ordered me to squat down with my hands on my head. They forced me to stand up and squat down several times. Then they ordered me to strip off my clothes in order for them to check whether I had hidden any Falun Gong materials on me. When I was not quick enough, they shocked my head with an electric baton. They tried to force Falun Gong practitioners in the jail to write a "Guarantee Statement" announcing that they would stop spreading the practice. Those who refused to write it were shocked with electric batons. Some of them were hung upside down from the end of a bed for a few days, but they still refused to cooperate. Under the command of the deputy head Shen Xiaosheng, the drug addicts and prostitutes in the jail would separately take practitioners to a small room and beat and kick them, while they held the practitioners' arms and pinned them to the ground. Shen yelled, 'Beat him for me, and beat him to death! I want to see how hard his bones are! We'll see if he writes it or not! I will break his fingers!' Then, the inmates grabbed the practitioners' hands and made fingerprints on the Guarantee Statement that was already prepared. This included statements such as 'no practicing and no spreading Falun Gong in the labor camp.'

"It was winter when I was sent to the labor camp. A cold wind whistled over the ground of a thick bed of snow. Many of us only wore a thin layer of clothing. Our hands and feet were covered with bloodstains from frostbite. The guards forced us to perform outdoor drills in formation, and we were forced to eat cold food outside in the yard. Within two minutes after picking up the food, our rice soup started to freeze solid."

In this labor camp, Falun Gong practitioners were forced to work for the guards packing disposable "sanitary chopsticks." Almost all the detainees were forced to get up early and work late. Practitioners suffered much more than regular detainees. Once Yu Ming protested the illegal detention, and several guards rushed him and dragged him to an office. They pushed him to the floor and shocked him with four or five high-voltage electric batons at the same time. His face, neck, feet, hands, and other exposed areas were covered with blisters from these electric shocks. The strong electric current caused his heart to palpitate and he began to lose feeling and almost passed out.

Yu Ming also witnessed that women practitioners suffered more insults and tortures than male practitioners. They were also forced to pack "sanitary chopsticks" and perform other labor. If they tried--or showed any sign that they might try--to defended their human rights, they were electrically shocked. The police purposely shocked women practitioners' mouths, ears, armpits, nipples, and private areas. They even instigated drug addicts and prostitutes to sexually assault women practitioners. After being tortured, some practitioners were covered with bruises and their breathing became feeble. The police yelled wildly, "Don't think you'll get medical parole because you are injured. We have a death quota!"

On March 1, 2001, Mr. Yu was taken to the Yuanhe Forced Labor Camp. Upon his arrival, he was immediately subjected to brutal tortures, such as sleep deprivation, standing in the burning sun for long hours, intensive forced labor, being beaten by criminals, and so on. They tortured him to make him give up his belief in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance." They tried to force him to slander Master Li and Falun Gong and to admit that the persecution was justified. Mr. Yu was not allowed to appeal to higher authorities. At that time, all practitioners in the labor camp suffered from similar tortures. Lu Changjun was one of them. The guards instigated detainees to tie up Mr. Lu tightly with wide transparent tape. They taped his head down onto his knees. He was squeezed into a small space under a wooden plank bed while several people sat on the bed to press it down. The tremendous pressure crushed Lu Changjun's backbone and he became a paraplegic. Chen Gang was brutally beaten by more than 20 detainees. They used plastic shoe soles to beat his head and his feet. Then they tied him tightly and squeezed him under the wooden plank bed. Chen Gang was tortured even while his entire body was swollen and distorted. For many days, he was unable to walk and almost became paralyzed. Yu Ming sternly warned the detainees who were instigated by the guards to torture him, and he was able to stop them from committing a crime.

In June 2001, Mr. Yu Ming and many other practitioners who refused to give up their belief were made to stand in the scorching sun. When Yu Ming sat on the ground because his feet oozed pus, guard Ni Zhenxiong dragged him to an office and kicked and punched him frantically. He clutched Yu Ming's neck tightly and shocked him with an electric baton. Then he held him by his feet and dragged him down the stairs. Mr. Yu's head kept bumping on the edge of the concrete stairs, which made him dazed and he had an extreme headache. The clothes on his back were torn apart completely. Yu Ming still did not yield. Ni Zhenxiong dragged him back to the office again and warned others not to tell what he did. In the office, he started to shock Yu Ming with electric batons and pulled Yu Ming's arms behind him toward the back. Just before Yu Ming's arm was going to break, he realized the consequences and stopped. Yu Ming told him, "Although you treat me like this, I do not hate you. But what you do will never change my mind."

The "Fortification Fight Building" there is especially for torturing steadfast practitioners. In March 2002, four or five guards carried Yu Ming to the second floor of the "Fortification Fight Building" in order to torture him. The door and window in this room had been totally covered with newspaper. The policemen stripped off Yu Ming's clothes, shoes, and socks. They tied his neck to a bed board with a rough rope. His chest, waist, arms, legs, and feet were fixed tightly with about eight strips of cloth. They also gagged his mouth with rags to prevent him from shouting and tied a strip of cloth across his mouth, between his upper and lower teeth. At the same time, they had paper and pen ready beside him. They told him, "If you agree to write a statement defaming Falun Gong, blink your eyes and we will stop right away!" Then they ruthlessly shocked him with electric batons. Jiang Haiquan shocked his head and upper body; Liu Xincheng from the 2nd Group shocked his lower parts and thighs; Liu Guoxi from the 3rd Group shocked the soles of his feet. They were using custom-made electric batons with over 100,000 volts. Yu Ming was unable to move. Sharp sounds of the electric batons with occasional bursts of laughter from the guards were heard. Blue flames fluttered in the air, and the unpleasant smell of burning flesh filled the air. Yu Ming was tortured the entire morning but he still didn't give up his belief.

These long and horrible torture sessions in this labor camp did not make Yu Ming yield to the authorities. His righteousness and firmness in safeguarding Falun Gong encouraged fellow practitioners and terrified the Party and its followers.

In October 2003, not long after Yu Ming's release from the labor camp, the authorities arrested him again and took him to Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp the second time. Yu Ming and fellow practitioners in the camp started hunger strikes in order to protest the tortures. They then transferred Mr. Yu to the No. 1 Forced Labor Camp, which is located in the Kaiping District, Tangshan City, Hebei Province. He later was released with dignity.

In March 2006, National Security police officers secretly arrested Yu Ming again in an insidious way. According to Minghui news, from November 11, 2006, Yu Ming was once again detained in Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp. They detained him in a small room especially designed so that nothing can be heard from the outside. Several criminals were ordered to torture him every day. If they refused, they themselves would suffer brutal beatings by the guards. The room was equipped with a monitor and was bugged. Yu Ming was tied to a bed 24 hours a day and suffered from brutal force-feeding. Whenever they force-fed him, Yu Ming would call out, "Falun Dafa is good" to protest this savage action. The guards turned up the radio loudly in order to cover up his shouts. The police doctor, Xiao Zheng, and others mixed sedatives and sleeping medications with the mixture they force-fed him. Yu Ming was sedated all day long. He was tied to the bed and unable to move. His physical and mental condition has been severely damaged, and he is very weak.
