Enslaved Falun Gong Practitioners Make Wigs Sold Worldwide [China]

Hair products manufacturer Henan Rebecca, Inc. is contracting work to notorious Chinese labor camps that buy Falun Gong practitioners as slave labor, reports the Falun Dafa Information Center (FDI), an organization dedicated to publicizing details of the persecution of Falun Gong...Company officials have denied using followers of the banned spiritual movement as slave labor. A source in China who is familiar with forced labor contracts told the FDI: "Many of these wig product factories don't hire a lot of employees outright.” Instead, they rely heavily on the slave labor of detainees in forced labor camps, jails and detention centers, including many illegally detained Falun Gong practitioners."
