Practitioners Poisoned Intravenously at Weifang Detention Centre in Shandong Province

Since March 2006, Weifang Detention Centre in Shandong Province has used a savage method (injecting poison intravenously) to persecute Dafa practitioners who hunger strike to protest their illegal detention. At this point, at least four Dafa practitioners are known to have been injected with poison.

The perpetrators used an iron chair¹ or a cross, cuffed the Dafa practitioner to it, and then injected a poisonous solution intravenously. After the injection, the Dafa practitioner's kidney functions would shut down with no urine output that day. A prison doctor surnamed Kang once asked a Dafa practitioner: "Have you urinated today?" The practitioner asked him, "What did you inject me with?" and he answered, "Nutrition." With a guilty conscience he added, "I will do whatever the officials ask me to do."

After being injected with this poisonous material, the practitioner immediately felt dizzy with blurred vision. His feet and hands began swelling the next day and getting worse by the day. He had generalised muscle aches with worsening oedema, and he became covered with blisters all over his body accompanied by extreme itchiness. After the skin was scratched open it formed layers of scars, leaving black or brown discolouration. One month after the injection, his nails began to fall off and he experienced hair loss. In the end he lost almost all of his hair.
