Paralyzed Legs, Life in Danger: Shocking Facts of Female Falun Dafa Practitioner in Masanjia Female Prison

The authorities in Masanjia Female Prison, Liaoning Province, have been carrying out horrendous persecution against Falun Dafa practitioners. The police there have claimed, "We can make it so Falun Gong practitioners will find nowhere to appeal, and nowhere to redress injustice. We can even make a healthy person go insane. We'll kill you for no reason and your family members won't even be able to find your bodies." It's no surprise, then, when they act on these words and commit all kinds of wicked deeds.

Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Han Xuejun, who is about twenty-eight years old, has been locked up in the Prison Hospital. Under the horrendous torture, her lower limbs have become paralyzed and she is currently incontinent. Furthermore, there are force-feeding tubes in her nostrils, her mouth has been forcefully stuffed, and her arms are fastened onto the bed. Nevertheless, as soon as she gets a chance, Ms. Han shouts out, "Falun Dafa is great! Falun Dafa is righteous." Two criminal offenders responsible for monitoring Ms. Han have stuffed her mouth in order to keep her quiet, and they constantly swear at her and beat her.

In Masanjia Female Prison, as soon as a Falun Dafa practitioner arrives, the police instruct a few criminal offenders to "discipline" her. The only responsibility these prisoners have is to force the practitioner to give up her practice. The police and the criminal offenders take turns trying to brainwash her and to prevent her from sleeping. If the practitioner does not give in, they do not hesitate to use violence. They seal her mouth and cover her eyes, and dozens of them take turns beating her and shocking her with electric batons. They often torture the practitioner until she is nearly dead. In addition, they instruct two people to monitor the practitioner wherever she goes and whatever she does -- when she works, eats, or even goes to the toilet. The practitioner is not allowed to talk to anyone. At night, they continue the brainwashing by her bed. As these people do not go to sleep, they do not let the practitioner sleep either.

Practitioners like Han Xuejun who refuse to give up their belief are sent to the Prison Hospital for more violent torture and horrendous force feedings. To prevent the practitioners from shouting, they stuff their mouths and seal them.

Once a practitioner is sent to the hospital, she is not allowed to have her family members visit her. As a result, the hospital can easily intensify the persecution because nobody will know even if the practitioner is tortured to death. For that reason, Han Xuejun's family members haven't been able to visit her for the past month.
