Revealing More Information about the Persecution After Reading the Clearwisdom Article, "Former Head of the Shenyang City Judicial Bureau Exposes the 610 Office"
2005-08-04I deeply appreciated former head of the Shenyang City Judicial Bureau, Mr. Han Guangsheng's courage to speak out and expose the truth about the persecution of Falun Gong. What he said is true but not quite complete; I want to add more information. In the case of practitioner Ms. Han Tianzi, Mr. Han only mentioned that the police shocked Han Tianzi with electric batons but he did not describe the result of the electric shocks. The fact is, because of the electric shock torture, Han Tianzi was in a coma with a high fever. Her body twitched and jerked and she suffered both bladder and bowel incontinence.
