(Clearwisdom.net) The Heizuizi Women's Labor Camp not only tortures Falun Dafa practitioners using cruel means but has also forced them to do hard labor for 16 to 18 hours a day, fabricating artificial butterflies and birds for export and making large profits of foreign currency for the labor camp. The photos below are examples of the feather butterflies made by the Falun Dafa practitioners.
The white feathers used to make the butterflies are dyed different colors. Sometimes, the workload cannot be completed in time because the foul smell from the stored feathers causes nausea and headaches. The noxious feathers also cause rashes, itching, and swelling of the face, hands, and body.
In 2004, the second and fifth divisions of the labor camp brought in various colored feathers from different birds and forced Falun Dafa practitioners to make artificial birds. The dyes that came off the feathers had a very bad smell. After breathing in the dust from the dyed feathers, practitioners' spit turned red. The dust caused nausea, headaches and vomiting, and the practitioners' urine even had a slight red color. Because the butterflies were made for export and they feared being exposed, the authorities assigned practitioners to wrap the butterflies in small boxes. Only the large boxes were addressed. Practitioners were not allowed to pack the large boxes. When packing the small boxes, practitioners placed a piece of truth clarification material in nearly every box. Overseas practitioners and people with righteousness, please pay attention to these products. They are evidence of forced labor.
In the last six years, the Heizuizi Women's Labor Camp of Changchun City has illegally detained several thousand Falun Dafa practitioners. It has employed inhumane and despicable means to torture determined practitioners, including: shocking them with 10,000 volt electric batons, sleep deprivation, allowing no bathroom time, no visitation from family members, and forbidding writing letters home or calling home.
Often, five or six people took turns punching and kicking practitioners. Practitioners were forced to watch videos and read books that slandered Falun Dafa. Some practitioners were locked in solitary confinement. Some were forced to sit on a small stool for 17 or 18 hours with a fixed posture. Many people's buttocks were sore and bleeding and their legs were paralyzed from sitting on the small stool.
Under the brutal torture of prison guards and the "collaborator"", some practitioners became mentally unstable, sick, disabled, or even died.
