Exposing the Crimes of Police Officer Song Lili at the Beijing Women's Labor Camp

By Falun Gong Practitioners in China and Overseas

(Clearwisdom.net) Police officer Song Lili in Division 2 of the Beijing Women's Forced Labor Camp has tortured and poisoned Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Liu Guifu and deprived her of sleep. Song stated the abuse was to "keep her mind clear longer." Ms. Liu has bruises all over her body. She is very weak both physically and mentally due to the abuse she has suffered.

Song Lili never listened when Falun Gong practitioners clarified the truth to her. In spite of what she was told, Song invented many cruel tortures in order to force Falun Gong practitioners to give up their belief. For example, she stabbed Falun Gong practitioners with awls, stabbed their scalps with the tips of ball point pens and pointed out, "Doing it this way, torturing people like this does not make noise." Other inmates who were instructed to monitor Falun Gong practitioners could not even stand watching her torture them; they called her the most evil police officer in the division.

Officer Song Lili became worse since she was transferred to the "closely restricted unit." Song came from Inner Mongolia. She was in the Administration Sector of the Beijing Women's Forced Labor Camp and was sent to Division No. 4 as a helper in 2003 during the SARS outbreak. Drug abuser Wang Jing was then in Division No. 4. Song encouraged Wang to abuse all of the Falun Gong practitioners. She often urged drug abusers to torture Falun Gong practitioners as well. Song is responsible for the persecution Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Liu has suffered.

Practitioners in the "closely restricted unit" are all firm Falun Gong practitioners. After suffering long-term inhuman persecution in other divisions, they did not give in, so they were transferred to the "closely restricted unit" for more intense persecution.

After Ms. Liu Guifu was sent to the No. 2 Unit (the closely restricted unit), the labor camp would not allow her family members to visit her. Recently, under pressure from international community, the labor camp allowed Ms. Liu's family members to visit. When they did, they saw bruises and scars on Liu's arms, many of which had healed. It was not hard for them to imagine how many more bruises on Liu's body were covered by her clothing. This might be why the Beijing Women's Forced Labor Camp officials forbade any family visits for several months. Yet, some bruises turned into permanent scars that could not be covered up. Ms. Liu was healthy and youthful looking before her arrest. When her family visited her, she looked emaciated and old and had lost at least 40 pounds.

Song Lili monitored practitioner Ms. Liu's meeting with her family members and stopped her conversation several times. Yet, Ms. Liu was able to tell her family some details about her suffering, such as: that the bruises were the result of the police inciting drug abusers to torture practitioners; that the drug abusers gagged her with rags when torturing her to keep her from crying out; that she was force-fed unknown drugs; that she felt dizzy, weak and vomited dark fluid after taking the drugs; that she was only allowed to sleep for four hours each night, from midnight to 4:00 a.m.

Song Lili's explanation for force feeding Ms. Liu drugs and forbidding her from sleeping was, "This way she can keep her mind clear longer." Song also said to Ms. Liu's husband, "How could you tell others that I asked you divorce your wife? I was just kidding." Her husband said, "You were not kidding."

Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Liu Guifu lives in the Haidian District in Beijing. She started practicing Falun Gong after listening to a speech by the founder of Falun Gong. Since she persisted in her practice, the police arrested her at home again on February 28, 2005. The police did not find any information on her personal PC, nor did they find any Falun Gong materials at her home; yet, they sentenced her to two and a half years in a labor camp for "possessing 21 Falun Gong flyers." Ms. Liu's daughter Ms. Meng Xiangji, is a student at Purdue University in the USA. She has been working to rescue her mother since she learned about the arrest.

Ms. Liu Guifu is in critical condition! We hereby strongly request the following: first, stop all kinds of persecution against Ms. Liu Guifu; second, unconditionally release her so that she can seek medical treatment; third, hold Song Lili and the authorities behind her legally responsible for all of the persecution and torture.
