Since November in 2004 it has been increasingly difficult for the perpetrators at Masanjia Forced Labour Camp to sustain the persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners.
On March 31st, 2005, Su Jing, Head of the Second Female Sub-Camp, Political Head Wang Naimin and other administrators devised a "three-part" persecution method to employ against Falun Dafa practitioners.
They hold practitioners who refuse to wear the labour camp uniform and refuse to do the camp exercises and slave labour in a Strictly Controlled Division, or Division No. 1 on the second floor. This division consists of six teams; the practitioners are held in 12 cells. Each team consists of two cells. One male and two female perpetrators are in charge of each team. More than 160 people are held here, among them are 140 Dafa practitioners and more than 20 collaborators1. The collaborators are called "disciplinarians" and "guards' assistants." They are assigned to monitor steadfast practitioners. About 200 other practitioners are held in Division No. 2 on the third floor. More than 200 former practitioners who succumbed to torture and brainwashing are held on the fourth floor. Determined Falun Dafa practitioners are given coarse food and soup with rotten vegetables for all three meals. They are not allowed to leave their cells, except to use the toilet and for personal hygiene. They are not allowed to hang their clothes to dry, to drink hot water or to meet with their families. They are not allowed to have pen and paper.
On May 14th, 2005, Team Leader Shi beat Dafa practitioner Ms. Zhu Yun, who had been on hunger strike for one year. Shi was drunk and hit Ms. Zhu's head and slapped her repeatedly until she lost consciousness and collapsed on the ground. After she came to, Ms. Zhu discovered the guards had covered the mirror in the toilet with paper so she could not see herself. According to witnesses, her eyes were bloodshot and her face was seriously swollen and deformed.
On June 2nd, 2005, practitioner Dong Jingzhe from Shenyang City was carried off to a so-called "psychological consultation session." Also taken along were practitioner Zhang Guixia, who held a hunger strike for seven months to protest the six-month extension to her term, as well as practitioner Zhu Yun. Practitioner Dong Jingzhe would vomit every time the guards force-fed her, which the guards have done for over a month. Practitioner Zhu Yun has a low blood pressure reading of 80/50 due to torture. She walks slowly and has blood in her stomach because of the long-term force-feeding. Practitioner Zhang Guixia is emaciated from torture and shows symptoms of emphysema. She has been detained for three and a half years.
Team Head Zhang Huan, a woman in her twenties, beat female practitioner Wang Jinfeng many times, only because Wang Jinfeng refused to cooperate with the perpetrators' demands. In April 2005, Wang Jinfeng held a hunger strike to protest the detention and extension of her term. Zhang Huan wouldn't allow her to lie on the bed, so she had no choice but to lie on the ground to sleep. Zhang Huan violently kicked her. In late May 2005, guards tried to give Wang Jinfeng an IV infusion but she refused to cooperate with them. Zhang Huan slapped her face and dragged her from the second floor to the first floor while kicking and beating her.
In May of 2005, practitioner Xie Dewen shouted, "Falun Dafa is good!" Guard Cui Hong taped her mouth with yellow tape to silence her. In June of 2005, Xie Dewen was detained in solitary confinement. Guard Cui Hong force-fed practitioner Dong Jingzhe. Cui Hong did not allow Dong Jingzhe to vomit. She gagged Ms. Dong with mopping rags and hit her teeth until they loosened and the inside of her mouth bled. She yanked Dong Jingzhe's hair and pulled it out in bunches.
Practitioner Xia Yulan, 57 years old, from Shenyang City has been illegally detained for three years and two months. Guard Liu Hui, a woman in her twenties, force-fed Ms. Xia and slapped her face. Xia Yulan's head hit the tiles on the floor. As a result, she had many painful bumps on her head. Cao Yujie pinched the acupuncture points on Xia Yulan's face so she could not move. Xia Yulan is currently being held in solitary confinement on the ground floor.
In April of 2005, guard Xie Chengdong slapped the face of practitioner Lin Xiuqin until she developed heart problems and almost lost consciousness. She was tortured because she refused to submit to an IV infusion and shouted, "Falun Dafa is good!" Lin Xiuqin has been held in solitary confinement.
On April 25th, 2005, the practitioners held at Division 1 shouted, "Falun Dafa is good!" Guard Xie Chengdong led a group of male guards as they barged into the female cells and dragged the practitioners off to solitary confinement cells. The guards banged the practitioners against the steps in the stairway. The sounds could be heard from a long distance. Xie Chengdong said, "Beat them and slap them! I'll take care of it if anything happens!"
On April 19th, 2005, Li Mingyu, Head of Division No. 1 and Xie Chengdong, a guard at the labour camp, dragged Jinzhou City practitioner Xu Qingyan to the office. They beat her until her back was injured; she lost her hearing and some of her teeth became loose. They tortured her because she exposed the brutal force-feeding administered at the labor camp. They handcuffed Ms. Xu to the heating pipe so she could neither stand up nor squat. She was denied her right to use the toilet despite numerous requests. She was forced to hold her bowels and bladder for fourteen hours and her heart rate increased. Later, Ms. Xu was diagnosed with a tumour in her abdomen that quickly increased in size due to the torture and lack of medical attention. Xu Qingyan was in critical condition, yet guard Xie Chengdong said he would beat her even more if she told others about the beating.
On April 25th, 2005, Division Head Li Mingyu and a group of guards burst into the cell of practitioner Xie Xiulan and beat her. Li Mingyu pushed Xie Xiulan's head against the floor, hit her face and yanked her hair. Xie Xiulan confronted Li Mingyu about the illegality of the beating. A few minutes later, Xie Jiaquan and several other male guards dragged Xie Xiulan to the office and tortured her in solitary confinement for five days.
The guards at the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp are extremely frightened of phone calls and letters that expose their crimes. Fellow practitioners are tortured day in and day out.
