A Two Death Allotment Given to Sanction the Persecution Against Falun Gong Practitioners at the Shibalihe Woman's Labor Camp, Henan Province
February 1, 2004
(Clearwisdom.net)
On April 20, 2003, the head of the Shibalihe Women's Labor Camp in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, received special permission from the Henan Provincial Labor Education Bureau that an allotment of two deaths of Falun Gong practitioners was issued to the labor camp. This was given to the labor camp to sanction the escalation of violence against Falun Gong practitioners in order to use any means to get them to renounce their belief and give up their practice of Falun Gong. The labor camp deployed police from the Fifth Prison of Xinxiang City, Henan Province and as well as police from the Third Labor Camp of Xuchang City, Henan Province to start a round of beatings and persecution against Falun Gong practitioners. The police said, "We'll take no responsibility even if two of you are beaten to death, because the labor camp has received permission for two people to die! Nobody will be released unless they change their stance!" etc. They assigned personal cangues (cangue is the name of torture instrument, and here it refers to the prisoner who was selected to monitor the behavior of practitioners) to closely monitor the activities of the Falun Gong practitioners in the labor camp. Having dinner, sleeping, working, using the toilet and speaking were all activities that were closely monitored. Prisoners were given sentence reductions to encourage them to persecute Falun Gong practitioners, with a larger sentence reduction given for more persecution against practitioners. Any prisoner who would not participate in persecuting Falun Gong practitioners was instead given sentence extensions. This was a method used to incite prisoners into participating in the persecution. Day and night those personal cangues took turns abusively shouting at, cruelly beating and forcing practitioners to continuously stand without a break. The practitioners were not allowed to sleep and were cruelly tortured even further for refusing to change their attitude toward Dafa.

Recollections of the Torture Conducted by Tiananmen Policemen Against Falun Dafa Practitioners
(Clearwisdom.net)
In early October of 1999, dozens of other Dafa practitioners and I went to Beijing to appeal. We were arrested in Tiananmen Square and then detained in the Tiananmen police station. I personally witnessed policemen using methods of torture that caused excruciating pain against my fellow practitioners.
