Currently, the greatest difficulty is gathering evidence of the organ
harvesting. The lack of

evidence prevents relevant overseas organizations from
solving the problem. I can disclose an outline of the government's process that
I had encountered, in the hopes that relevant organizations can learn tips from
it. Due to safety reasons, I still cannot disclose the entire process. Here I
will describe parts of the process.
1. Forced Means of Organ Harvesting
Overall, there are 2 types of transplant sources: voluntary
and involuntary. However, according to the government, all of the organ donors
are voluntary. What does that mean? It means that Falun Gong practitioners and
other detainees are detained using their real names, but when it comes to organ
transplants, fake names are used. In other words, a false identity is created.
And, all of this fake person's information is available, and a voluntary
transplant organ donation form is signed (of course the signature is fake). I
have encountered over 60,000 of these documents with falsified signatures. All
of them say that the individual voluntarily agrees to an organ transplant and
will be responsible for all of the consequences. Some of the forms are even for
heart transplants. Many signatures are the same person's handwriting.
These documents are kept for 18 months and must be destroyed
at the end of the 18 months. The documents are kept at the provincial-level
military regions. Reviewing these documents would require permission from the
CCP Central officials based in the local areas. One thing worth noting is that
during the entire process of an organ transplant, if the transplant is not
successful, the documents on the organ source and the body must be destroyed
within 72 hours. All of the documents and the body (sometimes even a live
person) must be cremated and the cremation certified by military management
personnel. These military personnel have the right to arrest, detain, or
execute any doctors, police, paramilitary police, or research staff who leak
the secret to the outside. The military personnel have clearance from the CCP
Military Commission.
2. Organs Obtained from Live Bodies
Any person identified to be a source of an organ transplant
is transferred from the prison, labor camp, detention center, or concentration
camp. At this point, the person loses her name and is given a code, which corresponds
to a false identity of a voluntary organ donor. The person is told that she
will go through a physical examination. The exam is followed by local
anesthesia, then organ harvest from the live body. Due to security reasons,
details relating to the military management personnel are omitted.
3. Why such a Big Discrepancy between Publicly Announced
Figures and Reality?
Many people pay a lot of attention to the transplant
statistics announced by the government. Actually, "underground" organ
transplants are many times that of the number publicized by the government. For
example, if the government says that there are 30,000 cases a year, then the
real number is about 110,000. There is an abundance of organ sources, and this
is another reason why the prices for organ transplants have decreased. Many
hospitals under the jurisdiction of the military, while reporting some
transplants to the central government and the public, are actually conducting a
large number of organ transplants in secret. The real number is much higher
than government statistics. As I said before, in the eyes of these people are doing the operations>, the people whose organs are being removed are no
longer regarded as human, but animals. When doing it for the first or second
time, some of them feel shaky and nervous. But after thousands of operations,
everything is changed. They become numb about extracting organs from live
people and cremating live people.
Since 2000, more than 85% of the world's live organ
transplanhave been done in China.
This number is from a document within the Military Commission. A few people
were promoted to generals for the "accomplishments" in this area.
4. Monitoring and Management System for Evidence
As I said before, the organ transplants are managed by the
military. This system is far superior to the government agencies. Once
something becomes classified information in the military, it is impossible to
obtain any more information, as I'm sure everyone is aware of how the military
system is operated. So we must shift some attention to many of the military
facilities. Those are the true concentration camps.
That's all I'll say at this point. I apologize that due to
security reasons I cannot elaborate on the details.
