Australian Matthew Radalj details five years of harsh imprisonment in Beijing No. 2 prison. He alleges wrongful conviction, beatings, sleep deprivation, forced labor, food deprivation, and psychological torture, including a manipulated 'good behavior' points system. His account is corroborated by other former inmates who fear retaliation. Radalj secretly kept a journal, smuggled it out, and is now speaking publicly about his ordeal. The Chinese government hasn't commented.
