Torture in Pingantai Labor Camp, Gansu Province - Officials Try to Coerce Practitioners to Deviate from "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance"
(Clearwisdom.net) Pingantai Labor Camp in Gansu Province resorted to using force and
coercion with Dafa practitioners. Labor Camp guards instigated drug-addict prisoners to badly beat a
practitioner who persisted in practicing the exercises. The practitioner was hung from bars with
handcuffs, but he did not accept the persecution and refused to renounce his belief. In the end even
the drug addicts praised this practitioner for what he did. They even used his words and deeds to
judge other practitioners there. A labor camp captain, Wang Xin, forced Dafa practitioners to write the
"three guarantees." (Documents that denounce Dafa and promise to give up the practice
of Dafa) If practitioners refused to do so, they would be either hung by handcuffs or be forced
to do heavy labor work. Moreover, each practitioner was watched by three prisoners all the time.
Even when they went to the bathroom, they were monitored. Practitioners were not allowed to talk to
one another. Those who refused to write the "three guarantees" were cruelly beaten. Some
were beaten so badly that they could not walk for many days after, yet they were still required to
do forced labor. In addition, practitioners who didn't write the "three guarantees" were
not allowed to see family members. Labor camp officials forced family members who came to visit to
curse Teacher and curse Dafa, otherwise they would not be allowed to see their loved ones, whether
they had signed the 3 guarantees or not. The punishment used in the seventh women's group of the Labor Camp for those who
refused to write the "three guarantees" got people's hackles up even more. These
practitioners were hung by handcuffs, and beaten harshly, not allowed to see their family members,
and devastatingly punished. Some practitioners were tortured so badly that they could not move their
arms and hands. We are calling on Dafa practitioners to send righteous thoughts, to eliminate all
evil factors in other dimensions in the Pingantai Labor Camp, to help the kidnapped practitioners
regain their freedom, and to eliminate the evil persecuting Dafa. |
