Four Falun Dafa Practitioners Are Being Brutally Force-fed in Detention
2006-01-06There are many persecution cases indicating that the force-feeding of Falun Gong practitioners in forced labour camps takes place not out of humanity, but rather is intended as one of the most brutal methods of torturing those who hold hunger strikes. With this method, a thick and dirty tube, without lubrication, is inserted repeatedly into a practitioner, first through one nostril many times, then taken out and inserted into the other nostril. During this process, the tube is intentionally pulled out and pushed back down to intensify the torture. These actions cause the hunger striker to experience nausea, a choking sensation, violent coughing, and also excruciating pain. -
