The Weifang City Labor Camp (also called the Changle Labor Camp) is located in the eastern suburb of Changle County Seat, about 30 km from Weifang City. Since July 20, 1999, this labor camp has become used by Jiang and his regime instrument for persecuting Falun Gong. Director Xu Lihua, male; Deputy Director Zou Jintian, male; Management Office Chair Lu Yibo, male; Education Office Chair Zhu Anle, male; No. 2 Ward Leader Ding Guihua; Deputy Leader Zhu Weile; Former Ward Head (under the Leaders) Liu Jianguang, male; and police officers Han Huiyue, male, Liu Anxing, male, and others have either personally carried out or ordered prisoners to carry out the mental and physical torture of more than 200 male Falun Dafa practitioners detained in that facility.

Many torture techniques are used. Practitioners are shocked with multiple high-voltage electric batons and beaten with metal bars, wooden sticks, table legs, bed boards, and leather belts. Such treatment resulted in the death of practitioner Mr. Liu Shuchun. In his forties, he was from Changyi City. In the cold of winter, they soak practitioners in a large tub of water for long periods of time, dunking their heads under water to almost drown them, hanging practitioners upside down and then dipping their heads in the water until they choke. In winter, they drag practitioners to the bathroom, pouring cold water onto their bare bodies, then opening the windows or turning on electric fans. They tightly squeeze practitioners' private parts or whip their private parts with rulers or wooden boards, making the whole area swollen. They flick practitioners eye balls, whip their eyes with wet towels, burn practitioners' flesh with electric irons, use pliers to pinch the flesh, poke needles in the thighs and use scissor tips to scratch the bottoms of their feet. They turn tables upside down to use as a Tiger Bench; hang practitioners by their handcuffs; tie them up with ropes or tape; force them to sit with their legs straight for a long time, both hands holding their toes, while the police sit on the practitioners' heads or shoulders, severely injuring practitioners' backs. They deprive practitioners of sleep for days at a time; inject them with nerve-damaging drugs; restrict their access to a toilet; make practitioners soil their pants; force them to do innumerable squats; force them to do exercises, march or do aerobics in hot weather; and intentionally get them sunburned by requiring them to do heavy labor for up to 15 hours per day.

Below are photo illustrations based on victims' descriptions and acted out by practitioners.

Using upside down tables they tie up practitioners using it as a "Tiger Bench." The knees are tied up tight, hands taped together to the toes, and then the feet and buttocks are raised with two folding stools causing the bones to feel like they are cracking. Practitioner Mr. Jiang Guobo was tortured like this for an entire day.

In the cold winter of 2000, in order to brainwash more practitioners, four prisoners stripped one practitioner at a time and carried him to the bathroom, where they held him upside down and lowered him headfirst into the water for several minutes. They would pull the victim up and ask if he would cooperate with the brainwashing. If the answer was, "No," they would dunk him headfirst into the water again. Mr. Yao Hexing passed out while being tortured like this. It took him a long time to regain consciousness.
