  2006-10-10
  Because of my belief in "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance," I was arrested in 2001 and detained in a detention centre in Jilin Province. In order to regain my freedom, I started a hunger strike on the fifth day of the detention. Five or six prisoners held me down, and I could not move at all. Some of them pinched my nose and pried open my tightly closed teeth. Doctor Chen, who participated in the forced-feeding, dropped his mobile phone out of his shirt pocket into a basin of water. The doctor didn't care about my critical condition caused by the forced-feeding. He was more concerned about his mobile phone than me. He took it out of the water, cleaned it, wiped it off, and shook it.
