(Clearwisdom.net) In the Baoding City Forced Labor Camp, the guards have been severely persecuting Falun Gong practitioners who are firm in cultivation. Practitioners are not allowed to call their families, their family members are not allowed to come and visit them, they are forbidden to go to sleep until 11 p.m. or even later if there is a lot of work to do.

The very first thing Dafa practitioners encounter when they are sent to this labor camp is that the guards will attempt to force them to renounce Falun Gong and to write a 4-page statement. The 4-page statement is to write abusive words on four full pages to defame Master and defame Dafa. If one refuses to write the statement, he or she will be tortured. The form of torture is to force practitioners to stand 24 hours a day for many days, depriving practitioners of sleep, and making the practitioner stand still even while eating meals. As time goes by, the whole body will become swollen. Not only that, the guards also routinely use "leaning against a big board," (1) electric batons, "holding and squatting," (2) depriving practitioners of sleep by having two prisoners watch a practitioner in turn so as to not let the practitioner close his eyes. Practitioners will suffer from being beaten, kicked, and struck with sticks as soon as they close their eyes. The fourth floor in the female division is an evil place dedicated to torturing Dafa practitioners.

To protest such inhumane torture, detained Dafa practitioners went on a hunger strike. The guards then adopted even more vicious torture methods: force feeding with the feeding tube extending to the stomach, force feeding human excrement and urine, force feeding concentrated salt solution.

Ms. Zhang Yiqin was a native of Baoding City in her sixties. She went on a hunger strike to protest the guards persecuting innocent Dafa practitioners. The guards force-fed her with a concentrated salt solution. Zhang Yiqin vomited blood after the force feeding and felt extreme pain in the chest. Twenty days later, she had a high fever of 40 ^o C for a long time. After physical examination, it was found that the salt solution went into her lungs. She vomited a large amount of blood stained with purulence. All rescue measures were ineffective, and she died shortly afterwards.

Ms. Ma Qingyun is a native of Baoding District. She went on a hunger strike to resist the cruel torture. The guards pinched her nose and pried her mouth open to forcibly feed her, and the solution went into her lungs. Ma Qingyun vomited a lot of blood stained with purulence and suffered from severe pain in the chest.

Ms. Liu Jun'ge is a native of Baoding District in her fifties. The guards attempted to force her to renounce Falun Gong. She refused to write the 4-page statement, and the guards shocked her with electric batons. They couldn't find sticks so they hit Liu Jun'ge with stools. Because Liu Jun'ge was forced to stand for a long time and was deprived of sleep, her blood pressure went way up and she developed symptoms of a stroke.

Ms. Wang Junxian is a native of Baoding District. The guards attempted to force her to renounce Falun Gong. First, they applied the torture method "leaning against a big board" against Wang Junxian for more than ten days. Several guards took turns watching her and forbade her from sleeping. In the second round, the guards forced Wang Junxian to "hold and squat" and tied up her knees. Wang Junxian was forced to maintain the squatting position 24 hours a day and could not close her eyes. Later, Wang Junxian was forced to stand. During this time, the vicious guards adopted an even more malicious torture method. Several guards pushed Wang Junxian to the ground, gagged her with a towel and then stabbed her palms and feet with needles. They taped her mouth with adhesive tape to silence her so that people downstairs could not hear her cry from pain. After they silenced Wang Junxian, they beat and kicked her fiercely with sticks and leather shoes.

Because Wang Junxian had her knees tied up for a long time before, her left leg was disabled for several months. The guard who was monitoring her was Guo Shaohua. Guo once said, "I really want to cut the main veins on her legs." How evil! Later a guard told Wang Junxian, "If we ask you to go downstairs to work, don't tell others it was because anything we did that your leg is crippled when they ask you about it!" The guard asked another prisoner to warn Wang Junxian, "Don't tell anyone what happened on the fourth floor, otherwise..."

Ms. Yuan Guihua is a native of Baoding District. Because the guards tried to force her to renounce Falun Gong, she went on a hunger strike to protest. One day, suddenly, guard Guo Shaohua, who had been monitoring her, came downstairs with a pair of broken scissors. She asked for glue to fix the handle of the scissors. When asked how the scissors were broken, Guo replied with abusive words, "It was she who caused the scissors to break." At that time, Guo Shaohua was torturing Yuan Guihua on the fourth floor to try to force her to renounce Falun Gong. Yuan Guihua didn't have any freedom and could not move at all; how could she break the scissors?

To date, more than 1,000 practitioners have been tortured to death all over the country. Whoever has done evil deeds against Dafa and Dafa disciples will repay their debts in the near future. None of those who have committed evil deeds will be able to escape karmic retribution.

Notes:

(1) Leaning against a Big Board: The practitioner is forced to lie down on a bed made of a wooden board without any padding. His feet and hands are handcuffed tightly to the headboard of the bed.

(2) Holding and Squatting: The detainee is forced to squat on a squared floor brick measuring 30 by 30 cm [approximately 1 ft by 1 ft] for a long time. The head must be raised and the feet, the knees have to stay close to each other. As time goes by, if the detainee can't hold the two knees together, the police will tie the knees with a rope tightly and force the detainee to squat with knees tied up for a long time.
