  2007-04-16
  Mr. Zou Guoyan, 53, was arrested on Tiananmen Square when appealing for justice for Dafa. In the detention centre, the police chose those most vicious criminals to ruthlessly persecute and forcibly “transform” Mr. Zou Guoyan. Whoever persecuted Mr. Zou most cruelly would receive a reduction in their detention time. One time, the criminals held Mr. Zou Guoyan's five fingers together tightly and then inserted a toothbrush between his fingers and viciously twisted it around. Very quickly the skin on Mr. Zou's hands was lacerated and his muscle were exposed and blood flowed. The criminals still continued twisting the toothbrush. Mr. Zou felt such sharp pain that it seemed to gouge his heart and penetrate to his bones. The bones of his fingers were exposed and a large amount of blood flowed out. Mr. Zou let out several cries of pain and then lost consciousness.

  2007-04-15

The "inmate care" personnel were very quick in understanding the intentions of the camp guards, prison doctors and nurses. Towards those inmates they did not like, they would inject the entire length of the syringe needle into the buttocks. They also competed with each other for the fun of injecting inmates in various ways to inflict pain. Sometimes they would repeat intravenous injections back and forth several times although the injection was successful on the first try.
