  2007-06-17
  The inmates, taking orders from prison guards, forced practitioners to read slanderous materials, watch videos slandering Falun Dafa and write so-called "experience sharing." The prison guards and inmates would hit and curse practitioners when they refused to comply with their unjust demands. In order to further persecute practitioners, the perpetrators used a brutal torture method called "wrapping dry-rice dumpling." First they roped practitioners' hands behind their backs, then, they tied the rope around their legs, and then they pulled the roped legs upward towards the bound hands.

Guard Li Gongming (male) cuffed this practitioner with his arms tightly crossed (left hand cuffed to the right corner of a bed and right hand to the left corner), which made the practitioner suffer excruciating pain, and he could not move at all. Because his lower back was twisted, he was unbalanced, but he could not stand or crouch down; it was unbearably painful.
