Jinzhou District Detention Center has been torturing illegally detained Dafa practitioners for a long time. In order to protest the illegal persecution, Dafa practitioners went on hunger strikes one after another. As a result, they were all brutally force-fed.

Prison doctors Zheng Shiyue, Zhang Shuquan and Zhao Yang instigated prisoners to force-feed Dafa practitioners on hunger strike. They beat and curse practitioners at will. Zheng Shiyue even used a stick to pry open Dafa practitioners' mouths. If he still could not get a practitioner to open his mouth, he would use an awl to drill into the mouth. Many practitioners had their teeth broken; some even lost their teeth permanently.

Dafa practitioner 'A' has been on a hunger strike for over 40 days. Due to long-term force-feeding, he suffered from severe stomach hemorrhage. Each time when the force-feeding tube was pulled out, it was covered with blood. One time 'A' firmly refused to cooperate with the force-feeding request, and his teeth were pried open, which caused his mouth to bleed profusely.

Dafa practitioner 'B' has been on a hunger strike for over 70 days and has severe hematuria. Under such circumstance, he was injected with some unknown medicine against his will, which caused him to lose consciousness for several days. Even after he woke up, his mind was still not clear. He is in grave danger now.

At present many Dafa practitioners are still being held in Jinzhou District Detention Center. Dafa practitioner Liu Guichun has been hunger striking for over 50 days.

We call upon Dafa practitioners to send forth righteous thoughts together to eliminate evil factors in other dimensions.
