Ms. Zheng Cuifang Insulted and Tortured in Jiangsu Women's Forced Labour Camp

Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Zheng Cuifang was brutally tortured in Jiangsu Women's Forced Labour Camp in Judong. She was humiliated when ordered to take off her clothes to be inspected by the guards, and during March and April 2010, the guards forced her to lie on the cold cement tiles without any clothes on.

Within several months, she was as thin as a stick. Her original weight was around 165 lb. In order to avoid being held responsible for her condition, the authorities at the forced labour camp secretly sent Ms. Zheng elsewhere. Nobody knows if she is still alive or not.

Ms. Zheng is from Beiguoxin Village, Nantong City, Jiangsu Province. She was arrested by local police as she was heading back to her parents' home. She was ordered to serve two years in the forced labour camp by the 610 Office in Nantong City.

Once at the camp, Ms. Zheng was forced to participate in training every day. Guards only allowed her to sleep for one hour, and inmates kicked and beat her any time they wanted to. They put a piece of paper between her legs, demanding that she raise one of her legs to a very high level. If the paper fell, they would beat her.

Ms. Zheng believes steadfastly in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and won't give up cultivation. She went on a hunger strike, but the police designated inmates, including drug offenders and gamblers, to treat her brutally. During her hunger strike, she was dragged from the third to the first floor many times. When the weather was hot, she was always covered with bloodstains from being dragged.

About 50 practitioners are detained in Jiangsu Judong Women's Forced Labour Camp. Some time ago, a leader in the education section, Tang Guofang, who is in charge of "transforming" [forcibly renounce Falun Gong] and torturing Falun Gong practitioners, again came to the forced labour camp and held a 100-day brainwashing session, but to no avail. In the past ten years, Tang Guofang has employed all kinds of sinister and ruthless methods of torture on Falun Gong practitioners.
