During his term as governor of Liaoning Province from January 2001 to February 2004, Liaoning had one of the worst records for persecuting Falun Gong. Masanjia Forced Labor Camp and Longshan Forced Labor Camp, where Falun Gong practitioners are persecuted severely, are located in Liaoning. This March, several witnesses came forward to expose the atrocities happening in Sujiatun, a secret concentration camp in Liaoning Province, where several thousand Falun Gong practitioners were locked up to have their organs harvested while they were still alive. These heinous atrocities took place during the term of Bo Xilai. Ms. Gao, a Falun Gong practitioner, said that Bo is responsible for the severe persecution happening in Liaoning Province. In April 2006, Falun Gong practitioners in New Zealand filed a lawsuit against Bo for the persecution of Falun Gong, and Bo has been sued in several countries for the same reason.
