Camp of Shandong Province Guards Sun Juan, Liu Jianhui, and Zhang Yongmei torture steadfast
practitioners from Group No. 1 in the No. 1 Female Forced Labor Camp of Shandong
Province. In August and September of 2004, they lied to the practitioners'
family members and said, "Because we need to furnish our new building, you
cannot see them for two months." In fact, they were using some of the rooms
to torture the practitioners. The guards used tape to seal the practitioners' mouths, and then tied them
onto the iron shielding net on the windows, with their legs in the air. The
guards took turns monitoring the practitioners to not allow them to go to sleep
or use the restroom. Some practitioners lost control of their bowels and
defecated in their pants. Some lost consciousness several times, and some were
tied up this way for more than 40 days. Many practitioners' legs become severely
swollen from this type of torture. After they are released from the net, they
could not walk for some time. Even after one month, they still limped when
walking. They could not raise their arms either. A practitioner in her 70s was dragged away from her work and tortured. A
practitioner shouted at the guard, "Good is rewarded with good, and evil
meets evil; persecuting Falun Dafa is against the heavenly principles." The
guard then sealed the practitioner's mouth with tape, and tried to tie her to a
chair. The practitioner refused to cooperate with the persecutors and sat down
on the floor. The guards then stepped on her hands with their leather shoes and
beat her legs, causing black bruises on her hands and legs. She was later
confined in a small, dark cell for seven days and only released because she had
strong righteous thoughts. The practitioner's hands were so badly swollen that
she could not hold a needle. Her face also had many bruises. A practitioner, Yang Chengmei, who is a college student, was sent to the
forced labor camp in October 2003. Because she was steadfast in her belief, the
guards tied her to a bed, pulled her by the hair and knocked her head against
the wall, pulling much of her hair in the process. Her new hair had only grown
out 2 inches by June of 2004. 16. [Jinan, Shandong Province] Practitioner Ms. Zuo Yumei is Arrested for
