Police officers and three criminal prisoners pushed her down, held her head, stepped on her four limbs, sat on her body, pried her teeth open with a toothbrush, poured salt water from plastic bottles into her mouth, pinched her nose and almost suffocated her. In February 2002, she became disabled from the persecution. She could no longer take care of herself.

    Tian Huiying had been subjected to inhumane abuse and torture such as beatings, insults, threats and deprivation of sleep for long periods of time.

This was specifically recorded by prisoner head Gao Qing. We asked how Tian Huiying was wounded. She told me that she was beaten by the people on the fourth floor.
