• The Guards Tortured Ms. Liu Shanzhen, a Disabled Farmer, Broke Her Legs and Drove Her to a Mental Collapse

  2011-09-04
  Ms. Liu Shanzhen was just released by Tumen City Police Department. Prior to being persecuted, Ms. Liu was an articulate speaker, but now she responds with laughs, just like someone suffering from dementia. On December 14th, 2008, Domestic Security Division agents from the police department arrested her simply because of her faith in the principles of Falun Gong, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. While Ms. Liu was held in the Anshan Detention Centre, guards broke her already disabled legs and tore a tendon. Now her foot dangles from her leg, because the tendon was never repaired since she was injured three years ago. In July 2009, the Tumen City Court secretly put Ms. Liu Shanzhen on trial. The Court, under the control of the 610 Office (an organisation of special agents just for persecuting Falun Gong), sentenced Ms. Liu to four years in prison.
