1. [Yueyang City, Hunan Province] Newlyweds Mr. Zhou and Ms. Liu Dan Are Imprisoned in a Forced Labor Camp
Ms. Liu Dan and Mr. Zhou used to live on the Luowang Garden Ranch in Yueyang City, Hunan Province. They were married in January 2004 and were arrested at the end of May. At that time, they were doing business and exposing the persecution in Zhuzhou City, Hunan Province. They were sentenced to three years and two and half years of forced labor, respectively.
Ms. Liu Dan (also known as Liu Meiling) was imprisoned in Zhuzhou City Baimalong Forced Labor Camp (a.k.a. the Hunan Province Women's Forced Labor Camp). She refused to wear signs and would not stand up and answer when being called. The guards cuffed her hands behind her back, hung her up with the handcuffs on for many days and wouldn't let her sleep. They denied her use of the toilet and asked the imprisoned drug abusers to scrub her body with hard brushes, and to "shower her." She had bloody stripes all over and her legs and feet were severely swollen.
According to Ms. Liu Dan, she had not had her period for five months and wanted to eat some citrus fruit. A kind prisoner gave her oranges to eat. She often vomited and had apparent signs of pregnancy. However, the clinic in the forced labor camp insisted that she was not pregnant and wouldn't allow her to have any examinations done at an outside hospital. This labor camp has a record of making 7-8 month pregnant prisoners have drug-induced abortions. We are very concerned about Liu's current situation.

The hospital announced her to be permanently disabled. The Dehui City Public Safety Bureau sent Wang home to avoid responsibility if anything happened to her. After she got home, she was immobile on the bed and couldn't take care of her daily needs. She continued to have faith in Teacher and Dafa and insisted on reading Falun Gong books and doing the exercises. In less than three months, she recovered from her injuries. The villagers in the neighborhood who witnessed this were amazed.
After the officers from Dehui City learned about this, they wanted to arrest Wang again. They did not succeed the first time and left. However, they came back after 4 p.m. and broke into her house, but couldn't find her. The police ransacked her home from top to bottom.
