(Clearwisdom.net) On December 20, 2002, the police from the Zhuichuan Police Station in Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, illegally arrested a female practitioner from out of town. Around 6 a.m. on December 21, she jumped out of the second floor window of the police station in order to resist the persecution. She was severely injured from the fall and could not walk by herself. The police dragged her to the second floor of the station, dislocating her shoulder in the process and causing her excruciating pain.

Inside the police station, she had to lie down on the ground. The police again dragged her to the interrogation room and then beat and kicked her. It was not until 5 p.m. that they sent her to the hospital to examine her injuries. The x-ray showed that her hipbone was fractured in two places and her right foot was also fractured.

She asked the doctor to hospitalize her, but the doctor told her that the police made the decisions. The deputy director of the police station angrily said, "Watch how I will fix you later!" She was taken back to the police station. She sat on a chair and moaned in pain. The police still ignored her.

She was finally sent to the supervised hospital on the third day of her detention. In the No. 5 cell, ten other people were crammed into the small room with her. Her bed was next to the washroom and less than one meter from the sink. The cell was dark, and the stench was overwhelming. The other patients in the room were sick with all kinds illnesses such as tuberculosis, hepatitis, syphilis or scabies. There were blood and urine stains on her bed sheet.

She was bedridden and couldn't move. She refused to cooperate with the authorities and did not take part in roll call. The person in charge of the prisoners didn't allow anyone to help her relieve herself. She had no clothes to change into and no toilet paper to use. She was even deprived of her basic right to see her family.

After three months she was still in therapy, but the police wanted to send her to the forced labor camp for further persecution. Since the doctor didn't agree, they had to relent.

During seven months in the hospital, she was poorly taken care of and poorly fed. This caused her feet to lose feeling, and she developed neuralgia in her toes for 24 hours. The pain was excruciating.

During the eighth month, the police sent her to the forced labor camp, but the camp refused to accept her. Instead, the police sent her the No.1 Shenyang Detention Center. The next day, they sent her to the police hospital for an examination. An X-Ray showed that she needed immediate hospitalization. Only under these circumstances did they inform her family to arrange for her medical parole.
