I was just released from Jilin Province Women's Labor Camp. This labor camp has detained about one thousand Falun Dafa practitioners. The persecutors there employ very brutal means to brainwash Dafa practitioners. Those practitioners who were recently jailed were not allowed to sleep. The persecutors also used those who gave into the brainwashing to in turn monitor these new practitioners, not allowing them to close their eyes and coaxing practitioners with "soft" words. They forced Dafa practitioners to write "repentance statements," or else the practitioners would have to work for 17-18 hours during the day after being allowed no sleep the previous night.

If after several days of such torture, practitioners still refuse to write "repentance statements," the guards let loose all their ferocity. They use high-voltage electric batons to shock practitioners' faces and chests, causing purple lesions and painful blisters on their skin, and even incontinence. If a practitioner tries to reason with them, they will put this practitioner in a special cell with hands cuffed onto the door for over a month. They don't provide enough food, with the excuse of reducing practitioners' needs of going to the bathroom. Some guards handcuffed Dafa practitioners onto a bed frame and then slapped their faces. They didn't even release the practitioners when they needed to go to the bathroom. They also tied up practitioners in the entrances to the stairwells, where they would suffer from the freezing cold. Some practitioners were driven to insanity and became unaware of their own excretion.

They usually forced practitioners to work for 18-19 hours a day, from 4:00am to 10:00pm. Those practitioners who were unable to work as quickly as they were expected would be cursed at, or assigned more work. Working for such long periods and with such heavy loads made many practitioners weak and caused some heart problems and high blood pressure. The guards clearly understood that these symptoms were caused by the overwhelming workload and yet they forced practitioners to have injections and take medicine. When practitioners claimed that insufficient sleep was the cause, the guards would still put the blame on the practitioners. When any authorities came to do inspections, they would force the practitioners to go to sleep at 8:30pm and get up very early in order to evade the inspection. They would also have the food prepared in advance and hid all the evidence of persecution. Some fabricated videos were produced of the detention center activities that would show the prisoners watching performances, studying, and playing games. They would air these videos on the news, scamming the people. But they would turn around and continue the brutal persecution after that. What they have done is too shameful to express in words.

Falun Dafa is an upright practice, and it teaches people to be good. Dafa practitioners are cultivators and kindhearted people. They strive to be the nicest people. Is that wrong?
