Ms. Wang Jinfeng Suffers Cruel Torture and Abuse at the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp

Practitioner Ms. Wang Jinfeng was arrested and incarcerated at the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp in Liaoning Province on March 5th, 2008. This time she was sentenced to two years of forced labour.

On her fifth day in the No.3 Division she refused to be "reformed¹". Team leaders Zhang Jun, Zhang Zuohui and two other guards dragged her to the triangle atrium on the third floor where they handcuffed her and hung her up. They handcuffed Ms. Wang to a metal torture device and stretched her arms. They gagged her and tied her legs to benches and then pulled the benches apart. Wang Jinfeng was in a great pain. Her cries echoed through the building. She could not move her arms, and the handcuffs injured her wrists, cutting into the flesh and exposing the bones. She had difficulty writing later on, had high blood pressure and suffered a mental collapse.

Wang Jinfeng had already been incarcerated for more than three years, between May 23rd, 2002 and July 2nd, 2005. She was exposed to and had suffered from various torture devices at Masanjia. The tortures included tying up and hanging from the ceiling, sleep deprivation, electric baton shocks, solitary confinement in "small cells," prolonged periods of squatting or standing, being exposed to freezing conditions, and being locked up in a water dungeon. Vicious guard Zhang Changuang had tortured her three times. He tied her up and hung her from the ceiling, shocked her with electric batons, and deprived her of sleep for a month at a time, once in 2001 and another time in 2003. He also force-fed her until she lost consciousness.

In 2005, more than one hundred practitioners were under close surveillance. They were forbidden to go to the canteen for meals; forbidden to speak or wash their clothes. They were made to sit on benches and not allowed to go out. Wang Jinfeng went on a protest hunger strike.

Now she is once more incarcerated at Masanjia and is suffering a new round of torture and abuse.
