• Torture in the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp Causes Ms. Lin Li'na to Become Mentally Unstable

  2005-11-09
  "I got acquainted with a fellow practitioner. Her name was Ms. Lin Li'na and she was about 35 years old. The guards there initially showered her with false compassion and later tortured her by forcing her legs into a crossed position and tying up her hands and legs with rope. She could not withstand the brutality of their torture for very long and was "transformed" against her will. She experienced feelings of guilt inside in addition to the physical and mental torture from outside. The sudden collapse of her mental state made her unstable, resulting in her release from the camp. Thereafter, her husband divorced her and he secured custody of their children."
