Yongchuan Women's Prison of Sichuan Province Brutally Beats Falun Dafa Practitioners
(Clearwisdom.net)
Yongchuan Women's Prison of Sichuan Province continuously persecutes Falun
Dafa practitioners who persist in their belief of "Truthfulness,
Compassion, Forbearance." I have personally witnessed the following cases
of persecution.
Practitioner Yin Suqing, 62 years old, was restricted from using the
restroom, monitored around the clock, and kept from doing any physical
activities.
Yang Xiaoli, 39 years old, was from Wulong District, Chongqing City, and a
teacher at the Southwest Normal University. Yang was forced to clean the
restroom, squat for long periods of time, denied sleep for two days and two
nights, punched and kicked by a group of thugs, threatened and cursed at, and
kept in solitary confinement. Policemen tied her two thumbs onto an iron bed for
over two hours. Her shoulders were beaten black and blue, her entire body was
swollen, and she suffered pain in her legs and feet.
Xiong Yuzhen is 49 years old. When appealing in Beijing for Falun Dafa she
was beaten so badly that her lungs suffered serious injury. Later, Xiong was
kidnapped and taken to a labor camp, where she was sentenced and detained in the
Yongchuan Prison. Because she firmly believes in "Truthfulness, Compassion,
Forbearance," her daughter was restricted from going to school, and her
paralyzed husband now has no caretaker.
Zhou Xuxia, from Nan'an District, Chongqing City, was detained for over 20
days. While in detention she was verbally abused and not allowed to clean her
body.
Zhou Qunying, 27 years old, from Hechuan County, Chongqing City, was taken to
the Yongchuan Women's Prison on December 28, 2001. After writing an appeal
letter against her illegal detention on March 1, there was no response. She is
watched 24 hours a day. Policemen do not allow her to converse with anyone and
restrict her movement. The police guards threatened her with various methods
such as handcuffing and electric shocks. When she refused to write a
"disclosing and criticizing" statement against Dafa, she was
forced to clean the bathroom, squat for long periods of time, and deprived of
sleep for many days and nights. Also, criminals were instigated to beat her,
verbally abuse her, and stuff dirty socks in her mouth. Police also instigated
criminals to harass and intimidate her.
She was not allowed to use the restroom and the abuse by criminals was
constant. When she was sleeping, criminals would come up to her, take off the
quilt, and then punch her to wake her up. Police randomly made up excuses to
lock her in a cell. During break times, the police would issue roll call every
15 minutes so that she could not have any rest.
During June and July, she would not be allowed to shower for over 20 days.
This practitioner was rock-solid in her faith in Dafa. Police guards clamored:
"It does not matter if you want to give up your belief or not, you must be
transformed." Immediately after that, they started a new round of
persecution. They did not allow her to sleep, use the restroom, or to eat, and
they forced her to remain standing day and night. After a few days, her feet
were so swollen that she could barely stand. Because she was not allowed to use
the restroom, she could only urinate all over her pants. They brutally beat,
abused, threatened, and tortured her. When she was too tired, she took a nap.
Police would spray cold water on her face, stuff used q-tips into her mouth, use
sticks to poke her, and verbally abuse her. After ten days and ten nights, she
was tortured to such an extent that she could not see straight. Her two feet
were so swollen that they felt as if they would explode. After 3 nights of rest,
the police once again tried to force her to write down the prison regulations.
She was not allowed to move or use the restroom. A group of criminals physically
punished her by choking her and applying pressure to her collarbones.
While in solitary confinement, some practitioners would lose consciousness
under the harsh conditions. After regaining consciousness, they would be placed
right back into solitary confinement.
One practitioner is now disabled due to being tortured to such an extent.
The evil is still running rampant and controlling people to persecute Dafa
practitioners. Please use your righteous thoughts to eliminate all the evil
factors behind this persecution.
