CAMPS
NEW YORK (EPOCH TIMES)--Photos showing festering burns on a female [Falun
Gong] practitioner's breast, made by shocks from electric batons, have

HUNGER STRIKES IN CHINA PROTEST WIDESPREAD ABDUCTIONS BY
POLICE
NEW YORK (FDI)--Eight Falun Gong practitioners at the Daqing Detention Center
have been on hunger strike for two weeks. They were among at least 30
practitioners abducted by police on September 23 without a warrant or due
legal process as part of a series of mass arrests throughout China that were
first reported on September 7 from Hegang City, Heilongjiang Province. Days
before the October 1 National Day celebrations, what locals described as a "manhunt for Falun Gong practitioners" took place in Qingdao city. Police
first arrested individuals who had previously been "reeducated" during
forced conversion through brainwashing and torture, and then forced them to
assist the police in arresting other Falun Gong practitioners in the area.
