Police at Chaoyang County Detention Centre Brutally Beat Practitioners

Police at Chaoyang County's Detention Centre very brutally mistreat Dafa practitioners. I was taken there while sharing experiences with several fellow practitioners. The policemen were very cruel while arresting us. They grabbed our hair, beat and kicked us at the same time and threw us to the ground. A practitioner was thrown so hard that he was out of breath on the spot. They even hired several roughnecks who used very cruel means to take us to Chaoyang County's Police Department. A vicious guy said, "I just want to kill somebody." They also cursed us using very dirty words.

The police forced us to sign [a guarantee statement to stop practising Falun Gong]. I said, "It is not wrong for me to practise Falun Gong and be a good person. I will not sign." The roughneck who arrested me beat me up. He grabbed my hair and threw me to the ground. It took me a while to get up. In the detention centre, as we insisted on doing the exercises, they beat, cursed and shocked us with electric batons at will. At one time, they tortured some fellow practitioners with electric batons so badly that we could hear the sizzle from the next room and could even smell burning skin. Even then, they felt that they hadn't vented their anger enough. They got a group of 17- or 18-year-old men to mistreat practitioners with an unknown torture instrument. We heard a crackling sound but couldn't figure out what it was. After a long period of time, we heard the young men say, "Thank you, Officer!" They don't treat practitioners as human beings at all. Such cases have happened numerous times in the county's police department.
