Police of the No.3 Forced Labor Camp of Henan Province have been aggressively pursuing all means possible to force Falun Gong practitioners to renounce their belief. They have held brainwashing classes, forced practitioners to read books and materials and watch videos that slander Falun Dafa in order to delude the practitioners. They have also used some people who take the path of evil enlightenment to do the so-called "help and teach" whereby some practitioners with many attachments who do not have a deep understanding of Dafa have been fooled by false "instruction". On some determined Falun Gong practitioners who had resisted the brainwashing, the evil thugs used methods of coercion, cruelly torturing and persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners mentally and physically. Their means are very contemptible and there are different kinds of methods: physical abuse, beating, tying up, electric batons, police clubs, standing and facing the wall, "Roasting a Whole Sheep" [The guards handcuff the practitioner's hands and feet, and then hang the handcuffs from a horizontal stick. They have subjected practitioners to this cruel torture for as long as 11 hours], denying practitioners sleep for long periods of time, inciting the prisoners who are drug addicts and thieves to torture Falun Gong practitioners, and more. They induced the practitioners to write "guarantee statements", promising to give up the practice of Falun Dafa, and if the practitioners refused, they would force them to stand facing the wall and paste humiliating cartoons and pictures onto the practitioners' faces, while at the same time denying them rest for several days and nights. They used all kinds of contemptible and dirty means and dirty language to abuse Falun Gong practitioners. For example, several people would surround and beat a practitioner. They stripped off practitioners' clothes and dumped cold water over their bodies as well as pressing their heads into the water and holding them under for a long time. They used needles to prick practitioners' bodies, burned them with cigarettes. They brushed their anuses very hard with a toothbrush causing the anus to bleed, then put the toothbrush into the practitioners' mouths. They torture Falun Dafa practitioners inhumanly.
