Cruelties in A Private Prison In Hengshui City, Hebei Province
(Clearwisdom.net) Since March of 2000, there has been a place in
Hengshui where innocent Falun Gong practitioners are detained. They have been
deceived, threatened and taken here against their wills. Layers and layers of
security equipment have been installed and monitors are everywhere. Activities
such as eating, sleeping or using the toilet are monitored. Practitioners are
deprived of their basic human rights. Their families are not allowed to visit
them. Half a month is counted as one term. Detainees have to pay 3,500 yuan per
term (average 230 yuan per day). If they refuse to give up their belief,
practitioners are detained for an extended time and more money is extorted from
them. Innocent people are brutally tortured here. Sometimes practitioners would
be sent to even more vicious places such as the provincial brainwashing center
or forced labor camps. This place is known as the "Hengshui City Law Education School" and
is actually the brainwashing center in Hengshui city and Taocheng district. It's
located in the former Hengshui middle-level court-building complex on the
southern-most end of Baoshe Street This is where the Hengshui "610 Office" (an agency specifically
created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of
administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems),
legislative system and various work units torture Falun Gong practitioners. The
following is an account of crimes they committed since 2001: In March of 2001, Hengshui City "610 Office" and Taocheng District
"610 Office" started holding brainwash sessions. Several dozen people
were forced to attend the first session and leave their families behind. In
order to avoid this torture, many more had to leave their work and home to avoid
arrest and further persecution. In April of 2001, the following people were abducted from their work place
and taken for brainwashing: Rong Dacui (in her seventies, a farmer from Zhaoquan
Town), Zhang Jiuhui (a farmer from Masen Village), Tian Guixiang (a teacher from
Zhaoquan Town), Li Jing (official from Taocheng District Entertainment and
Sports Bureau) and Yin Chunmei (a worker in the City's chemical industry). Li
and Yin were sent to a detention center later because they refused to renounce
their belief. They were detained for months and only released when their lives
were in danger due to the torture. In September of 2001, they once again started abducting practitioners. They
broke into practitioners' homes and took them away. Guo Suling's husband was
very ill and hospitalized. The vicious thugs still took her away. They also
broke through a security door and took Song Yunbo, a teacher from Hengzhong,
from his home. During the National Day period (Around October 1st),
Sun Liangsheng, a teacher in the city's second middle school, and Kang Yanxiang
from the city's scientific committee, were both taken to the brainwashing class
after being deceived by their work place. In early June of 2002, Yuan Qingai, a teacher in the city's forth middle
school completed her term in the labor camp. Without allowing her to see her
family, the city's "610 Office" directly took her to the brainwashing
class where she was beaten. Liu Dongmei, a teacher in Wuyi County, was twice sent to the brainwashing
center in 2002. Refusing to denounce Falun Gong, she was sent to the
Shijiazhuang brainwashing center and later transferred to a mental hospital
where she was injected against her will and forced to take large doses of
nerve-damaging drugs. She suffered physical and neurological damage as a result,
making her disoriented and slow witted. Her husband later divorced her. On November 14, 2003, Li Jingyun who works in the school administration
office in Hengshui Normal College, was deceived and taken to the brainwashing
class after being falsely charged with taking material from the city's education
committee. Left behind were her elderly in-laws and one-year-old son. Her
husband has to stay at home to take care of them. At present, practitioners are still being persecuted in the brainwashing
center. They abduct practitioners from various counties and districts, use
collaborators (former practitioners who have turned against Dafa under
pressure) to torture them and do not allow them to sleep. The head of the
brainwashing class, Wang Changxin, claimed: "Deprive them of sleep for
three days straight. They will be transformed by then!" One practitioner from Jing County has completed his (or her) term in labor
camp. He (or she) was sent to the brainwashing class directly to be further
persecuted. For those very determined practitioners, vicious thugs use every
possible means to torture them and even send them to the provincial brainwashing
centers or forced labor camps. The above cases represent only a small fraction of the abuses being committed
here. For the sake of brevity, I have only listed a few examples. Since March of 2001, Hengshui City has been holding brainwashing sessions
every year. Countless practitioners have been abducted and detained here. Many
others are forced to leave their family and wander around to avoid persecution. The following is a list of some people who are responsible for the torture: Tian Jieshi: former secretary of political and law committee in Hengshui
