Hong Haoyuan 01.05.2003
In the spring of 2000, HONG went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong and was detained in the basement of Guangdong’s office in Beijing. He was force-fed drugs and locked in a mental hospital among mental patients for one month. In May 2000, HONG was transferred to the Sanshui Forced Labor Camp for a two-year term.
While there, he kept practicing Falun Gong. He and several other Falun Gong practitioners went on a hunger strike for the right to practice Falun Gong. They were tortured, confined inside a tiny, completely dark room, subjected to electric shocks and beating, which resulted in severe internal injuries.
In former Division 7, the guards forced HONG to write a pledge promising to give up Falun Gong; otherwise, they would use two to three electric batons of more than ten thousand volts to shock him for over ten hours a day.
In the second half of 2001, HONG practiced the exercises openly. Guards openly beat him so fiercely with a bench that they broke the bench in two and severely injured HONG’S internal organs. The forced labor camp did not release him until April 2002.
At that time, a formerly healthy young man had been tortured to skin and bones, with severe injuries. Relatives, friends and neighbors could not recognize him. In the early morning of January 5, 2003, HONG passed away.
