Repost: Horrifying Conditions in Jilin Prison's "Naked District" - Second Urgent Appeal to Rescue Dafa Practitioner Yang Guang
(Clearwisdom.net) Mr. Yang Guang, 50, is a
Falun Dafa practitioner from Changchun. Because of his steadfast belief, he was
severely persecuted, and became paralyzed from the waist down from a cruel
torture used to extort evidence from him. He is currently being held in Jilin
Prison's "naked district," where he suffers humiliation and misery in
the company of psychotic, disabled inmates.
Mr. Yang Guang was held at the7th Division of Changchun City Police Department, where officials
brutally tortured him in order to extort evidence. The police beat him
ruthlessly, using all kinds of torture devices and broke his right leg. Later
his hipbone became necrotic. The police had to carry him into the prison. Now,
his right leg is disabled, his toes are deformed and festering, and he can no
longer take care of himself. He is fifty years old but looks like a frail old
man with his white hair and emaciated body.
Mr. Yang Guang is held in the "naked district" of the prison, where
inmates are forbidden to wear pants all year long. Because of his paralysis,
inmates made him a special chair, similar to a wheelchair. It has a steel pipe
structure with four wheels, and a board for the back and sides, and with a big
hole in the seat. Whenever he needs to relieve himself, other inmates wheel him
to the toilet area, but because the side of the chair is blocked by a board, he
cannot clean himself afterwards. He is surrounded by urine, feces and filthy
smells continuously.
This district where Yang Guang and other disabled and psychotic inmates are
being held never receives any sunlight. The conditions are intolerable, and it
is extremely hot in the summer and cold in the winter. The sleeping quarters
measure less than 60 cm (24 in.) in length, and the food is very poor, with no
fat or oils used. When it is time to clean, they wheel Yang Guang to the water
room, spray him with a pressure hose, and wash him with a mop, calling it a
"cosmetic shower."
Mr. Yang was recently sent to the Province Center Hospital. His old injuries
have not healed, and now his upper extremities are also disabled from
intensified persecution. He is now completely disabled, yet the police are still
persecuting him. They sent him back to prison from the hospital.
