2. Wu Tainxing from the National Security Bureau of Guangde County, Anhui Province Arrests and Extorts Money from Falun Dafa Practitioners

Wu Taixing from the National Security Bureau of Guangde County, Anhui Province made a fortune by arresting practitioners and extorting money from them for several years. Almost 50 Falun Dafa practitioners have been illegally arrested, sentenced and had their homes searched and ransacked by Wu Taixing. Wu sentenced practitioners who did not compromise and give him money. For example, Wu Taixing wanted to extort money from Tang Deheng's family, circumventing the normal release procedure. Wu got nothing during Tang Deheng's four-month detention, therefore he was very angry and sent Tang Deheng to a forced labor camp on December 9, 2004.

3. The Barbaric Slavery at Anhui Women's Forced Labor Camp

In the Anhui Women's Forced Labor Camp, inmates were forced to work from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. and often worked until midnight and 1 a.m. in the morning. Accidents like workers' hands being injured by machines have occurred repeatedly, due to inmates getting insufficient sleep. Falun Gong practitioners were treated even harsher. Shao Bixia, Ji Bangxia, Tang Deheng, Wu Jufeng and Nie Yinzhen were forced to work more than 18 hours every day. They are all in their 50s. The police ordered them to move heavy goods back and forth between the second and third floors. Wang Ping was put in solitary confinement for a long term. Duan Gunhua was shocked with an electric baton on her face, leaving a permanent scar. At the end of 2004, police officer Chen Xiaolin, tied Shao Bixia's hands and feet and force-fed her medicine four times a day and poured cold water over her head.
