By a Dafa Practitioner in Mainland China

(Clearwisdom.net) I am a female Dafa practitioner in a southern city. Because I went to Beijing to clarify the truth to the Central Government about Falun Gong, I was illegally arrested and detained at a local police station in Beijing. We were handcuffed to metal (iron) chairs for one day and one night and denied food. After I was escorted back to our local police station, I was very hungry and took some food out of my bag. A policeman saw this and kicked the bag away from me. He said, "I'll starve you to death!" He then asked me to tell him who had organized the trip to Beijing. When I replied that we don't belong to any organization and we went to Beijing on our own, he said, "I will kill you!" I was then handcuffed to an iron door and forced to remain standing. The local police chief then punched me repeatedly in the head, causing me to spit up blood. Even several months later, my throat was still bleeding.

I was handcuffed to the iron door for two days and two nights, and during this time I was denied food and sleep. My family brought some food to the police station, but they were told that I was being given food already.

It was very cold at the time, with the temperature hovering around zero degrees Celsius (32^oF). They handcuffed my hands behind my back and forced me to stand on the ice-old concrete while barefoot. Then they poured cold water on my feet. After a while, they pulled me to another place and poured cold water on me again. I didn't say anything during the whole ordeal. They became extremely angry and said that I was not afraid of death. They took me to the third floor, opened the window, and told me to jump. I refused and said that I'd rather be beaten to death than jump. Finally I was sentenced to one year in forced labor camp.

Because my husband went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong, he was also illegally sent to a forced labor camp. The police tried to force him to write a pledge to give up cultivation and tortured him brutally. Several policemen used five electric batons to shock him at the same time, and my husband lost consciousness several times. The police even pushed his head into a chamber pot. They also forced him to carry human feces in his bare hands from the station to the fields, causing his hands to become infected.

I call for all the kind people of the world to stop Jiang Zemin's regime from persecuting the innocent Falun Gong practitioners.
