Mr. Wang Zhankun from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, is Tortured to the Brink of Death

Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Wang Zhankun from the Hailar District, Hulunbeir County of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, was arrested on October 9th, 2006, and has now been tortured to the brink of death. According to the doctor, his liver and kidneys have failed, and his corneas looked jaundiced. If he does not receive medical treatment, his life is in peril.

At about 4:00 p.m. on October 9th, 2006, while Mr. Wang was explaining the facts about Falun Dafa face to face to the owner of the Ling Dian Bar in San Dao Street in the Hailar District, the owner instructed two or three of his staff members to hold him down on the floor while the owner reported him to the Hulun Police Station. Mr. Wang was then arrested.

Mr. Wang had with him only one copy of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party¹ and several leaflets exposing the persecution. Zhang Xuzeng, 610 Office² deputy head from the National Security Team, and policeman Xuan Wei, both of whom were directly involved in this case, searched his home that day. They were quite rude but failed to find anything. On October 10th, Mr. Wang's family went to the National Security Team to request his release. The policemen threatened that they would send him again to forced labour or sentence him since he had been previously sentenced. Mr. Wang had twice been sentenced to forced labour for going to Beijing to appeal and spreading leaflets exposing the persecutionmaterials. He was released in April of this year.

Wang Zhankun started a protest hunger strike on October 10th and stayed on it until October 26th. During these 16 days, the officers attempted many times to violently force-feed him. He resisted firmly. Unfortunately, this led to him being unable to walk or look after himself. The officials finally sent him to the police hospital when he was already at the brink of death. They notified his family on October 28th, 2006. Rushing to the hospital, Mr. Wang's wife was agonisingly aware that her husband's physical changes made him difficult to recognise. He was skeleton-like and in a coma. His mouth was full of pus and blood. He was handcuffed and could not speak. His shackled feet were swollen. He was chained to the bed and appeared to be at death's door.
