Guards at Beijing Women's Labour Camp Kick Practitioner in the Ribs
2010-08-31At the Beijing Women's Forced Labour Camp, in order to torture Falun Gong practitioners, the guards wear leather soled shoes to kick practitioners in the ribs. They do this because the injuries cannot be seen on the surface. However, internal organs can be seriously damaged from it. Female guard Guo Lina used this method to torture practitioners. In one instance, a practitioner in the labour camp refused to write a guarantee statement to stop practising Falun Gong. Guo Lina pushed the practitioner to the ground. Guo then repeatedly kicked the practitioner on the left side of her body. The practitioner was in so much pain that she curled into a ball, unable to breathe.
