Ms. Wu Xiaohong Tortured until She Loses Consciousness

On January 26th, 2010, Ms. Wu Xiaohong, a Falun Gong practitioner from Qiqihar, Heilongjiang Province, was arrested. At approximately 3:00 p.m., five police officers, including Han Dai and Li Xianfeng, arrested Ms. Wu at her store inside the Huibo Shopping Mall. Later that day, police officers went to Ms. Wu's apartment, hired a locksmith to unlock the door and then ransacked the apartment, taking away a number of personal items.

Police officers interrogated Ms. Wu overnight at the Wenhualu Police Station. In order to make her talk, police officers tortured her until she bled severely. Ms. Wu lost consciousness, after which the police took her to the emergency room of the local hospital. When Ms. Wu regained consciousness, police officers brought her back to the police station where they resumed torturing her. On the morning of January 27th, she was again unconscious and bleeding heavily. Not wanting to draw attention to what they had done, the police sent for a doctor to come to the police station this time rather than sending Ms. Wu back to the hospital.

Early in the afternoon of January 28th, relatives of Ms. Wu went to the hospital to see her, but were not allowed to visit. At approximately 5:00 p.m. on the same afternoon, at least five police officers dragged Ms. Wu to a police vehicle and moved her to Qiqihar Detention Centre. Witnesses said that she was barely recognisable.

On January 27th, before 10 a.m. another practitioner, Ms. Wu Xiaohua, was arrested at home by police from Jianshelu Police Station of Qiqihar City. On January 28th, Ms. Wu was released and returned home. However, the police continued to put her under surveillance.
