(Clearwisdom.net) An insider who had once been to the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp because of business, gave the following statements:
First, there is no one in the entire (Liaoning) province who does not know about Masanjia, where people were frequently beaten to death in the1950's and 60's since its establishment. Masanjia is infamous for its ruthlessness. There is no limit as to how far the punishments can go in China.
Second, once when I passed by a yard, I saw from afar that in the courtyard a police officer was whipping a male Falun Gong practitioner with a bamboo stick. This Falun Gong practitioner had on only a white undershirt, and he was bleeding where the stick hit. I really could not bear to watch, and I also did not dare to look longer.
Third, in a big courtyard, there were people holding a male Falun Gong practitioner from both sides, forcing his body to bend forward while standing, with his head pointing towards the ground and his spinal cord bent. It definitely had gone on for a very long time, otherwise his face would not have been that swollen when he raised his head. While the practitioner was forced to bend, a guard stood behind him with an unknown object (maybe an electric baton) in hand and hit the practitioner's lower back with it. (Note: the people who held the practitioner on both sides were usually the inmates.)
Fourth, on summer evenings, Falun Gong practitioners were firmly held by people from both sides, and wore only an undershirt, with a lamp on top of their heads (to attract mosquitoes). The guards (quite a few had retired from the armed forces, and their quality generally was very bad) said viciously, "If they do not follow orders, fix them."
Fifth, in 1999, the Falun Gong practitioners were all sent to one window to get their food. What they ate was plain vegetable soup, and corn paste.
Sixth, the son of the manager from the Shenyang Huanggutun District Meat Processing Factory was a practitioner, and was beaten until his brain tissue came out. He later became mentally retarded after surgery. I know him.

Here we appeal to all the insiders who have a conscience to provide first hand or relevant information, (see April 8, 2006 Clearwisdom.net article "Notice on the Scope of Investigation and Evidence Collection by the "Committee to Investigate the Facts") and join us to fight against the persecution and stop the slaughter! We call for conscience and justice for humankind.
