Jianxin Labor Camp Authorities in Tianjin City Enslave Detainees to Produce Contaminated Food January 2, 2004 (Clearwisdom.net) Jianxin Labor Camp of Tianjin City was expanded
especially for tormenting Dafa practitioners. Since the inception of the Sixth
Division for female detainees, several hundred Dafa practitioners have been
detained there. Most were older than fifty years of age, the oldest being
seventy three years old. Some older people, despite hypertension and poor eyesight, were still forced
to do delicate, vision-stressing, intensive work at night under poor lighting
conditions. They fell from their beds, time and again. Some people who have
serious illnesses and cannot take care of themselves are detained there. Under
those severe conditions, some Dafa practitioners developed pus-oozing scabies.
Nonetheless the labor camp forces them to process food, even though they should
not come in contact with food. The camp even ordered criminal prisoners with
scabies and prostitutes with venereal diseases to pick melon seeds, pack
chocolate and other candies, and to fold cake boxes. The food processing work is
performed by people sitting on their beds. Good sanitation is especially critical for food processing, and these
unsanitary practices jeopardize the public's health. Detainees with contagious
diseases are also forced to assemble items that contain edible items for
children, putting children's health at serious risk. The labor camp forces Dafa practitioners to work for as long as 17-18 hours
each day and the practitioners are not allowed to sleep. If they cannot finish
their assigned work load the Dafa practitioners are not allowed to sleep; some
of them even have to work through the night without sleep for several days. At
most they are only allowed to sleep for one or two hours a day. Many of the Dafa practitioners, especially the older ones, began Falun Gong
cultivation to heal their illnesses and improve their health. Because of the
vicious environment in the camp, the practitioners are forbidden from reading
Dafa books and from practicing Falun Gong. Not only that, in addition to
prolonged work hours and exhausting work, they endure intolerable mental and
physical pressure. That is the reason why some of them have relapses of their
illnesses, which were cured before they were abducted. One older woman with the
surname Li had high blood pressure of over 200 and had serious heart problems,
but was still forced to finish her daily assigned workload. One night at 12
o'clock she collapsed in the bathroom. They tried for over one hour to
resuscitate her in the bathroom but could not bring her around. The camp had to
send her to the hospital for emergency medical intervention. She was diagnosed
with a massive cerebral hemorrhage. After her skull was opened, the doctors
found three out of the four cerebral ventricles had massive hemorrhages.
Afterwards, the police tried to avoid responsibility by inciting criminal
prisoners and those people who had turned against Dafa under pressure of the
persecution to create false evidence to deceive her family and keep the facts
from them. Head of the division: Liu Yuxia Head of the Second team: Mu Xizhi Head of the Third team: Ci Ying, Cao
