The Inhuman Persecution Endured by Practitioner Ms. Liu Jinying from Laishui County, Hebei Province
2007-03-30Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Liu Jinying is 42 years old. During the last five years and three months, Ms. Liu has been held in custody in Laishui, and spent time in Laishui Detention Centre, the Women's Prison of Shijiazhuang City, and Taihang Prison. To protest the persecution, Ms. Liu went on hunger strikes many times. The guards tortured her with all means available. They took her to a hospital and force-fed her flour soup. They injected soup into her mouth while pinching her nose to stop her from breathing. When she couldn't hold her breath any more, she swallowed. The third time, they used a bamboo stick to pry open her teeth. After they failed to pry open her teeth, they inserted a rubber tube into her nose. The first time, they inserted the tube into her trachea. The force-feeding lasted over a month. -

Wang Gang Attempts to Sue Baoding City Prison in Hebei Province for Torture and Consequent Amputation of His Leg
2007-03-30In order to "transform" me and force me to give up my belief in cultivating Falun Dafa, defendant Gao Yin ordered policemen and inmates to abuse and torture me using various devices. In particular, he ordered defendant Fan Jianli to use torture devices on me, causing injuries that eventually led to my leg being amputated. I was forced to see Fan in the monitoring cell. I couldn't stand due to the pain in my legs so I had to crawl into the monitoring cell. Fan insisted that I stand up and walk into the cell, so I had to crawl in and out of the cell three times. Even so Fan continued to hit me and stomp on me. A medical checkup later showed that the blood vessels, bones, and muscles in my leg had become necrotic. If it wasn't amputated immediately, the toxins would attack my heart and my life would be in danger. Gao Yin forced me to submit to the amputation. -

One day a TV reporter came, and we were told to sit in a line in the corridor, while a supervisor told the reporter how good the conditions were, how Falun Gong practitioners were treated like sisters, and how we liked the place. I said to the supervisor, "You just said you treated us as you did to your loved ones, but how come you often beat us and yell at us? Look at what you did to Aunt Yuan Zeqin, who's sitting right next to me. She is over 70 and her ribs were all broken." At that moment, the reporter switched off his camera. -
