Police in Sichuan Province's Nanmusi Women's Labor Camp Ferociously Retaliate Against Dafa Practitioners Who Expose the Truth of the Persecution

(Clearwisdom.net)

On January 25, 2003, female Dafa practitioners Peng Shiqiong, Luo Meng and Gao Huifang suffered intense persecution while detained in Room 9 on the third floor, No.8 Team, in Sichuan Province's Nanmusi Women's Labor Camp. The police were retaliating against them for exposing the truth about how the labor camp persecutes Dafa practitioners.

At night, the labor camp authorities cruelly tortured the three Dafa practitioners. Police officer Li Qi and chief Kang Feng instructed several common prisoners to brutally beat practitioners Peng Shiqiong, Luo Meng and Gao Huifang in their room. Gao Huifang immediately fainted.

Peng Shiqiong and Luo Meng were dragged to their feet one by one, upside down, and then thrown to the ground. Officer Li Qi covered their mouths with three layers of wide bandages and then handcuffed Peng Shiqiong to a tree beside the front door, with only her toes touching the ground. Under Li Qi's instruction, all the common prisoners rushed over and kicked and beat her. Officer Li Qi said while beating her, "If I beat you to death, the worst thing that can happen to me is that I will no longer be a police officer."

Luo Meng was tied to a large tree; the other end of the rope was fastened to her handcuffs and tied to another branch of the tree. As a result, Luo Meng's arms, shoulders and back were all tightly bound. She was beaten even more brutally. Gao Huifang was not untied until she had fainted for half an hour and her body had turned cold. Only then did they send her to a hospital. The three practitioners were brutally tortured for a whole night, in icy cold wind.

On February 14, 2003, the No.8 Team enforcers established a "Strict Monitoring Team." They detained Dafa practitioners in rooms No.9 and No.10 and forced practitioners to loudly read books slandering Dafa, or they would not be allowed to go to the toilet. As practitioners would rather die than do this, practitioners Huang Huaimin and Tang Min had to relieve themselves in their pants. But the lawless police didn't allow them to change their clothes. Zhan Min was deprived of the right to go to toilet for over ten days, because she refused to read a slanderous book. She was further brutally beaten to the point of vomiting blood, and was sent to a hospital. Now she cannot sit upright on her own.

As practitioners were not allowed to go to toilet, rooms No.9 and No.10 were foul smelling. Furthermore, the practitioners were forced to eat more and were force-fed with a cup of water every two hours. In order to torture Dafa practitioners, lawless police even blocked their rectums and vaginas with strips of cloth. Their violence is extremely inhuman and despicable.

Since October 2002, Dafa practitioner Zhang Shiqing has been locked in a small cell without any natural light since she was sent into No.8 team. She has been continuously tortured by a group of drug addicts. On top of this, police officer Yin Dan not only ignored this but also handcuffed Zhang Shiqing. On the night of February 11, 2003, Zhang Shiqing and Huang Yufang were brutally beaten again. Practitioner Zhang Yi from Xichang City, Sichuan Province, who was detained on the second floor, shouted, "You can't beat Dafa practitioners!" As Zhang insisted that Li Qi should uphold the law according to law and should not persecute Dafa practitioners, Li Qi's shame turned to anger and he verbally abused Zhang. Two days later, deputy chief Liu Ping handcuffed Zhang behind her back. Furthermore, he inserted a thick quilt between her back and her handcuffed hands, which caused Zhang Yi great pain. Then, Liu did not allow her to rest for five continuous days.

Because of firmly practicing Dafa, practitioner Sun Fenghua from northeast China has been forced to keep standing since December 10, 2002. During this period, she has not been allowed to have any rest. Ms. Sun fell down from being too tired, and her eyes were black and blue. She was not allowed to sit down until being forced to stand like this for over 50 days. However, they still have not allowed her to rest in bed. Because of this long-term standing, she can't straighten her back.

Dafa practitioner Xiao Hongjun from Leshan City, Sichuan Province should have been released in July 2002 when her term expired, but is still illegally detained in the forced labor camp. Dafa practitioner Yu Bin has also been illegally detained an additional nine months after his term had expired.

Since October 28, 2002, the lawless police in No.8 team have only allowed practitioners under "strict monitoring" to rest six hours a day or did not let them rest at all. Practitioners are only allowed to wash clothes once a month, to take a bath once and to wash their hair once. They are not allowed to change or wash any clothes. There is also a water dungeon in Nanmusi Women's Labor Camp. It is a small cell filled with water, with a doorsill about two bricks high. They force practitioners to sit in the water. If someone comes to inspect, they drain the water, so no one is able to find it.
