• Jilin Province Women's Prison Tortures Practitioners with Death Bed

  2010-07-24
  Jilin Province Women's Prison, also known as Heizuizi Women's Prison of Changchun City, is currently detaining over 260 Falun Gong practitioners, most of whom were sentenced by the authorities within Jilin Province. To try to force practitioners to give up their belief in Falun Gong, the guards subject them to brainwashing and force them to stand or sit in the same posture for extended periods of time. When these methods do not produce any results, guards tie practitioners to a "death bed". They suspend the victim in the air so that she does not touch the bed. In this position, she has to eat, urinate and defecate on the bed. This inhuman torture method is extremely agonizing.
