Daqing Prison Guard Li Fajie and Others Torture Falun Dafa Practitioner Zhang Zhong to the Brink of Death (Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Zhang Zhong is illegally
detained at the Daqing Prison in Heilongjiang Province. Because he refused to
write a "Guarantee Statement" (1) denouncing Falun Dafa, and persisted in doing
the Falun Gong exercises, he was tortured to the brink of death by Daqing Prison
policeman Li Fajie at the No. 3 Ward of this prison. The prison authorities are
currently ignoring the fact that his life is in danger. Around 9:00 a.m. on January 15, 2004, when Mr. Zhang Zhong was doing the
Falun Gong exercises in his cell, the deputy chief for the No. 3 Ward, Li
Fangjie, called him to the guards' room and scolded him. Mr. Zhang Zhong told
them that Falun Dafa is a righteous way, and that there is nothing wrong with
practicing Falun Gong, and it should not be prohibited. Li Fangjie, along with
policemen Yu Qingjiang and Liang Shuyi, together beat him about the head and
caused him to fall unconscious onto the floor. They then used needles to prick
Zhang Zhong's head and hands, but got no response. They kicked his back and then
had two inmates carry him away. After many police officers came in, Li Fangjie
lied to them by saying, "He was doing the exercises. As soon as I started
scolding him, he laid down on the floor and acted shamelessly." After Mr. Zhang
Zhong was transferred to the No. 6 Ward, he spit up blood and vomited everything
he had eaten. On February 26, 2004, Mr. Zhang Zhong was sent to the prison hospital, which
is not at all adequate for treating patients. The doctor used an obsolete
ultrasound machine and diagnosed him with cholecystitis. He's still at the
prison hospital right now, but is closely watched by inmates, and is not allowed
to talk. He is unable to walk, as his leg muscles are not functioning. He still
vomits whatever he eats. His life is in danger. Daqing Prison enforcers have used violent methods to mistreat Falun Dafa
practitioners for a long period of time, but for the practitioners illegally
imprisoned there, no matter how high the pressure is and how brutal the
persecution is, their rock-solid faith in Dafa will never change! (1) "Guarantee Statement" - A statement to
declare that one is remorseful for practicing Falun Gong and guarantees not to
practice Falun Gong again, not to go to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong, and
never again associate with any Falun Dafa practitioners. Posting date: 5/19/2004 |
