Ms. Zhao Qiumei Brutally Beaten by a Group of Policemen in the Changchun Hezuizi Labour Camp (Photos)

Around 9 a.m. on February 14, 2003, some policemen called Falun Dafa practitioner Ms Zhao Qiumei to the guards' room and cruelly beat her because she refused to write a "thought report" [the authorities require certain slanderous words against Falun Gong in the "thought report"]. As soon as Zhao Qiumei entered the guards' room, she saw an electric baton on the table. Right away, Wang Limei walked into the room and picked up the electric baton from the table and started to shock her. Xiao Aiqiu quickly went to get some handcuffs, and put them on Zhao Qiumei by force. Wang Limei continued to shock Ms. Zhao. Group leader Wen Yin, along with Li Wenna and Zhang Lihong then entered the room and beat and kicked Zhao Qiumei down to the ground. Once she was on the ground, Li Wenna removed the handcuffs and proceeded to handcuff her hands behind her back and bound her legs with three leather belts. Wang Limei shocked Zhao Qiumei's head and neck. Xiao shocked her hand, back, face, neck and head. While they tortured her with electric batons, Wang violently kicked Zhao Qiumei's chest and shoulder and Xiao fiercely kicked Ms. Zhao's back, shoulder and side for over two hours.

After the beating, someone had to help Zhao Qiumei walk back to her room. Her hands were swollen, black and blue, and her right eye and right eyebrow were bleeding. She could not raise her right arm. She could not straighten her back to stand up and walk straight. Her left leg was lame. Zhao Qiumei was beaten to this extent simply because she did not follow the wicked orders to write a "thought report."

The following photos are reenactments based on Zhao Qiumei's description.
