The Brutal Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners in the Jiangxi Provincial Women's Labor Camp

June 26, 2005 |   By a Falun Dafa practitioner in Jiangxi Province

(Clearwisdom.net) Since July 20, 1999, the beginning of the persecution against Falun Gong practitioners, the Women's Forced Labor Camp in Jiangxi Province has followed Jiang Zemin's orders to "ruin their reputation, bankrupt them financially, and destroy them physically." The labor camp has carried out cruel persecution against Falun Gong practitioners in the name of achieving "unity, reeducation, safety, and influence."

All of the Falun Gong practitioners illegally detained at the Women's Forced Labor Camp have experienced various degrees of brutal persecution. Fa study and doing the Falun Gong exercises are forbidden. The detainees range in age from 20 to 70, but regardless of age, all of them are forced to work from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.; some of them have to work until midnight to meet the daily production quotas. Many of the practitioners have developed heart disease and high blood pressure due to the relentless persecution.

The following are accounts of the cruel persecution inflicted upon Falun Dafa practitioners, which I have personally witnessed.

Wang Shuying, in her forties, was an employee of Nanchang Airplane Manufacturing Company. She was illegally sent to a forced labor camp just after hysterectomy surgery. In the labor camp, Ms. Wang developed several illnesses including heart problems, indigestion, and insomnia. The authorities are still detaining her in spite of her poor health.

Fu Jinfeng, in her thirties, worked at the blood donation station in Nanchang City. Ms. Fu has been detained in a small, windowless cell, where she has not been allowed to take a shower for an entire week, even when the temperatures are around 40o C [104 oF]. Eating, drinking, and defecation all take place in this small space.

A Falun Gong practitioner named Xian Nu was beaten until her head was bleeding and she suffered a mental collapse. She now wears a thick jacket even in the summer. However, even under these conditions, Ms. Xian is still illegally detained.

Liu Yubin, a Falun Gong practitioner from Jian City, in her sixties, was diagnosed with tuberculosis and severe cough during the physical examination prior to entering the forced labor camp. Due to the excessive workload and inhuman treatment in the labor camp, Ms. Liu became emaciated and very ill.

Long Hongying, from Wanzai County, in her fifties, was severely beaten by the police because she clarified the truth about Dafa. A wound on her leg is still visible. Her mother could not withstand the sudden misfortunes brought about by the persecution, and passed away. The police did not even allow Ms. Long to see her mother for the last time, causing Long Hongying great mental and physical distress.

Yuan Xianyun, from Xinjian County, in her fifties, was illegally sent to forced labor because of distributing truth-clarification materials. She was cruelly tortured until she vomited blood and had vaginal bleeding. In addition, she suffered bladder incontinence, and pain and numbness in the left side of the body. Ms. Yuan can no longer take care of herself.

Another practitioner who works for the Nanchang Airplane Manufacturing Company, Shu Juan, sustained a severe beating in which several of her front teeth were knocked out, simply because she did not comply with the guards' unreasonable orders. The guards also instigated common prisoners to severely beat Ge Manzhen, another practitioner from Xinjian County.

These cases offer a glimpse of the Chinese Communist Party's evil nature and the savage persecution of innocent Falun Gong practitioners.
