Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp Claims to Be the "Palace for the King of Hell"

(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Falun Gong practitioner. The following is what I saw, heard, and experienced in the Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp, Hebei Province.

To earn bonuses for transforming Falun Gong practitioners, the labor camp police took practitioners out into the woods in the middle of winter. They shocked and beat them in the freezing cold until past midnight. Sometimes they took the Falun Gong practitioners to an empty room behind the building and handcuffed them to the ground for several days of torture. Several police officers simultaneously applied electric batons to the practitioners' bodies, beat their faces with their shoes, used a syringe to force chili pepper mixed with water into their noses, shot hard objects into their faces with a slingshot, kicked them with their boots, and tied them up with ropes. After this treatment the practitioners were often injured to the point of being unrecognizable.

The police tied one female practitioner 14 times--until her shoulders were bleeding. They also said, "If you don't transform, we'll drive you insane!" They let criminals beat this Falun Gong practitioner, and put used feminine napkins into her mouth. For several days she wasn't allowed to sleep. As soon as she closed her eyes, the criminals beat her face with their shoes again and again, and pulled her up to walk in the hall so that she could not go to sleep. They also used wet towels to snap at her buttocks, causing bleeding. Because they tortured this Falun Gong practitioner so brutally, she stopped speaking. Then she wasn't allowed to use the bathroom. When she was no longer able to hold back, she released into her trousers. The criminals then soaked up the urine with a toothbrush and squeezed it into her mouth. Afterwards they poured rice gruel into her clothes. The prison police also took her into the woods where they put her into a pit that they had dug and filled it in with dirt. They also forced her to sieve sand and do other hard work.

The police applied electric batons to practitioners' bodies without restraint, causing pus to run from their hands and feet before hard skin formed. They also applied several electric batons simultaneously to one practitioner until she lost consciousness, unaware that she had wet her trousers. In the empty room behind the building they even put snakes on practitioners' bodies. Those working outside heard the horrible shrieks coming from that room. Because one practitioner shouted, "Falun Dafa is good," they pushed dirty socks into her month and then sealed her mouth with tape. They also took her out into the snow and buried her. The police forced the criminals to pound nails into practitioners' feet and pinch their nipples until they bled. One practitioner's blood pressure was as high as 220, but the police didn't allow her to sleep for five days and nights, until she was unable to bear the torture. The police tore Master's picture as they tortured the practitioners.

In the Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp, practitioners are routinely beaten and shocked. One female police officer told the Falun Gong practitioners, "When you come here, you come to the Palace of the King of Hell."
