Persecution Suffered: Forced labor, brainwashing, illegal sentencing

(Clearwisdom.net) Forty-year-old practitioner, Zhou Yandong, was illegally sentenced to forced labor camps three times. He was then moved to a brainwashing center, where his hair turned white. Currently, he has a haggard face, an extremely weak body, and can barely walk.

On March 20, 2010, Mr. Zhou was arrested in Shuangyan District while he was exposing the persecution to a member of the 610 Office. He was sentenced on April 3 to one year in the Chaoyanggou Forced Labor Camp in Changchun City. He was abused there, began vomiting blood and had a fever for a very long period.

On March 19, 2011, his term at the camp expired, but Xu Lijun, director of the Shuangyan District 610 Office, along with some agents from Yunshan District Office, took Mr. Zhou to the Xinglongshan brainwashing center, where the authorities continued persecuting him.

Mr. Zhou became very sick at the brainwashing center. His red and white blood cell count dropped to very low levels. On March 23, officials at the brainwashing center notified his family members, the 610 Office and officials from the local community to bring him back home.

On March 24, no member of the 610 Office or local authorities went to the brainwashing center, and his family members had to find where the brainwashing center was before they could bring him back home.

Since 1999, Mr. Zhou has been persecuted in forced labor camps three times. The first time he was in a camp for three years. The second time was from January 20, 2007 to some time in 2009, where he was held longer than his sentenced period. He was sentenced for a third time on April 3, 2010.
