• The Torture I Suffered in Baishan City Detention Centre

  2006-07-13
  They tortured me on the "death bed" for five days. My body was seriously weakened and I was hard to recognise. I carried very heavy shackles. When they started to force-feed me, the criminals all came together. They consider torture and killing entertainment. The prison police really enjoyed the criminals force-feeding me. The criminals knocked me down and held me down firmly. Then six or seven criminals used their thumbs to firmly press my ribs, they pinched my crotch, stepped on my hands, twisted my belly and forcefully squeezed my head. The criminals pried open my mouth in turn, inserted the plastic bottle into my mouth and corked my mouth with a toilet cleaning rag. Then another criminal would take a turn to force-feed me. I nearly suffocated several times.

• Jilin Province Prison Guards’ Outrageous Treatment of Practitioners: Stabbing Their Ribs, Freezing Them, and Hanging Them Upside Down

  2006-07-13
  In the Nanshan Detention Centre prison guards ordered other prisoners to "transform" those practitioners who firmly believed in Falun Dafa. They beat the practitioners until they fainted and then revived them with cold water and continued beating them. These beatings left practitioners’ faces covered with blood and their mouths filled with blood. The cooperating prisoners used combs to scratch practitioners’ sensitive areas, including fingernails and toes. They used pointed wooden sticks to stab practitioners’ ribs. Some were stabbed until they bled. In the winter, they stripped off practitioners’ clothes, forced them to squat down on the floor of a toilet, and poured cold water on them over and over.

• Recent Incidents of Persecution in the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp

  2006-07-13
  Approximately 200 practitioners are jailed in the Second Women’s Section. The police guards use a special tool to abuse practitioners during force-feeding in particular. It is a round tool, augmented by two sharp ends. When force-feeding, the guards insert the sharp ends between the practitioners' front teeth and try to pry their mouths open. Some practitioners’ teeth have been broken and some practitioners’ lips have been torn. Ms. Cui Defen was tortured to the point of extreme weakness. She could not walk unaided, but the guards still forced her to do labour. Since she walked slowly, guard Zhao Jinghua beat her severely and locked her up for three and a half days. Zhao handcuffed her to a metal pipe in a room with her face against the pipe. She could not bend down or stand up.
