Mr. Bai Tianshi, 63, Seriously Tortured at the Xishanping Forced Labor Camp in Chongqing City
By a practitioner from Chongqing city
(Clearwisdom.net) Mr. Bai Tianshi from the Guojiatuo area of Jiangbei
District in Chongqing City was seriously tortured by the Second Squadron of the
Seventh Brigade of the Xishanping Forced Labor Camp. He had been crippled and
lying in bed for over twenty days due to the torture. He was unable to move
freely for the two to three months, and is missing most of his teeth due to
torture. Mr. Bai Tianshi, 63 years old, had been working in the Wangjiang Factory in
the Chongqing City. Because he practiced Falun Gong for about one year, the
factory authorities discharged him. He was once sent to the Xishanping Forced
Labor Camp by the Jiangbei Division of the Chongqing Police Department. In
August 2005, because he passed out truth clarification materials, he was again
detained in the Xishanping Labor Camp for 21 months. In November 2005, after the "group training" in the First Squadron
of the Seventh Brigade of the camp, Mr. Bai was transferred to the third
strictly controlled team of the Second Squadron of the Seventh Brigade to be
further persecuted. When the criminal "assistants" asked him to agree
to a compromise, Bai Tianshi always answered, "No way." On February
15, 2006, Fu Yaqiang, who is the head of the criminal inmates, closed the cell
door and required Mr. Bai to answer his question: "Will you write a
guarantee paper or not?" When Bai replied "No," several criminal
inmates immediately circled around him and two of them lifted his legs and two
others lifted his arms and carried him onto a bed. They separated his feet and
tied them to the headboard at the end of the bed. They also inserted a short
stool below his hips, causing his legs to rise up. Then Fu shouted, "If you
do not write the guarantee statement, I will let you have a taste of
this treatment." Then he and Gou Changhua together pressed down hard on Mr.
Bai's leg joints. One can not imagine how painful this must have been! Later in
the afternoon, criminal inmate Huang Xiaodong brought in steel needles to prick
into Mr. Bai's feet and hands. They tortured him until six o'clock that
afternoon. In March 2006, Lei Kejin, head of the second squadron of the seventh brigade
instructed "assistants" to forcibly transform Bai Tianshi. For the
next twenty some odd days, the evil Fan Shuanshuan, who is in charge of the
assistants, utilized many dirty tricks to torture Mr. Bai. One torture method
used was "sitting upright." The waist is straight with both hands on
both the knees. Between the knees is a piece of paper which needs to be held
tightly. If the paper is dropped, the person is then be punched and kicked
violently. This torture method is usually done for a good half a day. One day during the two-hour break time at noon, a so-called assistant forced
Bai Tianshi to hold his head with both hands and then perform a 90-degree bend.
Mr. Bai passed out twice but was not allowed to stop. Inmates forced him to sit
on a tiger bench and an assistant lifted his legs violently causing
such a tremendous pain that Bai Tianshi started to sweat all over his body. During another day, "assistants" knocked Bai Tianshi down to the
floor. They held down his head and pushed him underneath the lower layer of a
two layer bed. Mr. Bai is almost six feet tall and his body looked totally
deformed under the bunk. "Assistant" Fan sat in the bed sneering,
right above Bai Tianshi's head, to hold it down. After suffering twenty days from torture, Mr. Bai looked very exhausted and
his eyes had a stiff expression. He was unable to stand up, and had to spend his
time in bed like a paralyzed person. As soon as Mr. Bai was able to get out of bed, he was transferred to the
so-called "general control" group for further tortures. Because he
suffered from continuous tortures, Mr. Bai was not able to move around easily,
and when he walked, he had to hold on to the wall. One time the evil Jiang Zeng,
who was an "assistant," told him to report about what he was thinking,
and then he forcibly slapped him five times. Tian Xin, the head of the Seventh Brigade, along with Lei Kejin, head of the
Second Squadron in the Chongqing Xishanping Forced Labor Camp, were in charge of
torturing Dafa practitioners like Wu Qun, Chen Changjun, Kang Hong and others
who were still not "transformed." These evil guards tortured
practitioners both physically and mentally. The practitioners were locked in
small cells for a long time and were also monitored by inmates around the clock.
Practitioners were asked to write "improvement reports" every day. If
they did not comply, inmates would torture them. Their families would be denied
visitation and money from their families would be given to others. These
practitioners became very weak due to insufficient food, which only kept them
from dying, and continuous tortures. Xishanping Forced Labor Camp Evil people who participated in the persecution: November 28, 2006
