In order to force Falun Gong practitioners to give up their beliefs, the police of Group 1 in Jiutai Forced Labor Camp, Jilin Province, torment practitioners with wooden sticks, electric batons, straps, plastic tubes and other torture instruments. They have even used cigarette lighters and an electric iron to burn practitioner's feet, as well as subjected the entire group of practitioners to forcible "transformation."

At noon on March 22, 2002, the Group 1 police tortured Mr. Jin Chunlai. While he was being beaten, more than ten Dafa practitioners from No. 1 cell rushed out the door to stop the violence. All the police from Group 1 participated in the persecution of practitioners, as they were instructed to do by Meng Fanrong, Shi Chunfeng, Gao Chunbo, and clerk Lu Yanhui etc. Mr. Dong Fengshan clarified the truth to the police and was tortured with an electric baton by Lu Yanhui in the office, then was sent to the "Education Team" to be severely persecuted.

Two policemen took turns beating them with straps, and stepped on their heads while four prisoners pressed down their hands and feet. The practitioners' entire bodies festered with severe wounds.
