Yang Lidong and his wife are Falun Dafa practitioners from Ningjiang District of Songyuan City in Jilin Province. They were kidnapped just one day before the 2002 Chinese Spring Festival. They were sent to Jiutai Forced Labor Camp of Jilin Province on March 15, 2002, and on the same day assigned to the Education Team, also called the Heavy Discipline Team. Because Yang refused to write a letter denouncing Falun Gong, the lawless police instigated criminal offenders to torture him.

February 20, 2003

(Clearwisdom.net) Hundreds of Falun Gong practitioners are being illegally detained in the Shibalihe Women's Forced Labor Camp located in Zhengzhou, Henan Province. The persecution of Falun Gong practitioners is particularly severe in Squads No. 3 and No. 4. Squad No. 3 is brutal, where illegal brainwashing sessions are held continuously. They've tortured Falun Gong practitioners using sleep deprivation for days and detained them until they give up practicing Falun Gong. Various other tortures used by the police against Falun Gong practitioners include electric shock, Tiger Bench [Practitioners are forced to sit on a small iron bench that is approximately 20 cm (6 inches) tall with their knees tied together. see illustration on http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2001/11/24/16156.html], Tying the Ropes [The police tie up the practitioner with a thin rope, circle the rope around his neck, and tie his hands behind his back], and shackling the hands or feet.
