(Clearwisdom.net) In order to "transform" Falun Dafa practitioners, the guards in the Zhongba Labor Camp in Guizhou Province torture them inhumanly by forcing them to do things such as stand without clothes in the winter, run great distances while wearing heavy coats in the summer, or stand for days on end when deprived of the right to sleep. They have also done things like pouring icy cold water on them in the winter, burning their faces by pouring boiling water over them, beating them brutally, and forcing them to sniff heroin. The guards (all male) openly said, "It is nothing to kill several, we have a quota of practitioners we are allowed to kill." Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Cheng Huazheng's life is in danger due to torture he suffered.

Mr. Cheng, in his 60s, is from Anshun City, Guizhou Province. In July 2002, he was arrested, detained, and later sentenced to three years of forced labor. He received three years of unthinkable torture in the Zhongba Labor Camp until he suffered a nervous break down due to the torture.

In 2005, Mr. Cheng was very weak and was released. He often vomited blood as the result of internal injuries. All of his teeth fell out due to the cruel beatings he had received, and it remains very difficult for him to eat.

Soon after Mr. Cheng was released, on December 3, 2006, local policemen secretly took him to a detention center, sentenced him to another two years of forced labor, and imprisoned him again in the the Zhongba Labor Camp.

According to information from inside the camp, Mr. Cheng's health deteriorated after being locked up in the camp, and he is now in critical condition. In order to block information, the Camp Administration refused to allow his family to visit him, no matter how well they met the procedures or how many times they went to the camp. The camp refuses to release him.
