Practitioner Mr. Wang Shengbiao Persecuted at the Beijiao Prison in Shijiazhuang City (Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Wang Shengbiao was illegally sentenced to 11 years in prison in October 2004. Agents of the Communist regime detained him in the Strict Control Division at Beijiao Prison (also called the No. 4 Prison of Hebei Province). The guards there have insulted, abused and tortured Mr. Wang. They have deprived him of sleep for up to one month at a time and isolated him from the outside in an attempt to make him give up his belief.
Wang Shengbiao is 47 years old and a worker from the Hebei Chemistry and Industrial School. The positive changes in him were very obvious after he learned Falun Dafa. He became very energetic, hardworking and tolerant toward others. His colleagues and superiors liked him. He was a good father, son and husband.
After the evil persecution against Dafa began, Wang Shengbiao was persecuted in various ways for persisting in his belief in Truth-Compassion-Tolerance. He left home to avoid further persecution in October 2001. Agents from the Shijiazhuang City 610 Office tried to arrest him and posted a large reward for his capture. They closely monitored his family, tapped his cell phone and arrested his family members.
On July 31, 2003, National Security officials stationed at the Dakaihe Police Inspection Station in Yunnan Province illegally arrested Wang Shengbiao. On September 2, 2003, Wang Shengbiao's wife learned about the arrest and inquired about her husband's whereabouts at the Changan Police Department in Shijiazhuang City. Police department deputy chief Liu reluctantly acknowledged the arrest. He refused to tell her why Wang Shengbiao was arrested, nor did he tell her where he was being held. Mr. Wang's family was anxious because they didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
After being arrested in Yunnan Province, Wang Shengbiao was taken back to Shijiazhuang City and held at the Luquan City Detention Center. The jailers interrogated him many times and tried to persuade him to give up his belief by promising him favors. Hebei Province 610 Office agents organized a group of collaborators to work on him, but they failed to achieve their goal.
Ma Wensheng, from the Shijiazhuang City 610 Office, could not come up with evidence against Wang Shengbiao, but he didn't want to release Wang Shengbiao, so he accused him of "refusing to reform" on December 31, 2003, and sent him to Group 202, Division 2 of the Shijiazhuang City Forced Labor Camp (later named Special Control Group of Division 3). Wang Shengbiao was unjustly sentenced to three years of forced labor.
Right after Wang Shengbiao arrived at the labor camp, Special Control Group leader Bian Shuqiang at the Shijiazhuang City Labor Camp ordered Zhang Li and Dong Xinguo, deputy group leaders, to torture Mr. Wang by depriving him of sleep and hitting him if he closed his eyes. Because Wang Shengbiao refused to give up his belief, the guards forced him to half-squat [half-squat is between standing and squatting, it's an extremely exhausting posture and can result in significant pain after a short period of time] for more than 20 hours at a time. Wang Shengbiao still refused to sign the guarantee statement as they demanded. The group leader then ordered some inmates to beat him mercilessly and forbid him to use the restroom. They also organized collaborators to verbally barrage him in attempts to brainwash him.
Once, they tortured Wang Shengbiao continuously for nine days, during which time he was allowed only one period of sleep. He was then tortured again for nine days in a row, with the exception of Chinese New Year's day. He was forced to squat and was allowed to sleep briefly every five days. The guards said, "This torture feels even worse after you have had a taste of lying in bed."
Their goal is to destroy Dafa practitioners' wills, and their methods are extremely wicked. They repeated this torture cycle of inhuman treatment for over 40 days - until February 12, 2004, at which point they locked Wang Shengbiao into solitary confinement and put him under "strict control." Mr. Wang was not allowed to sleep until 2:00 a.m. and he was forced to get up at 5:30 a.m. each day. He was also completely separated from human contact.
As a result of such savage torture, Wang Shengbiao lost feeling in all of his toes and could not lift one of his legs. His other leg was weak, and he had high blood pressure. His life was in danger. The labor camp authorities refused his request for medical parole.
On June 7, 2004, Wang Shengbiao was transferred to the No. 1 Detention Center of Xingtai City.
At 8:00 a.m. on August 19, 2004, the Qiaoxi District Court in Xingtai City, Hebei Province held an illegal trial of Wang Shengbiao. They accused him of "tapping into the Xingtai City TV network in Hebei Province and broadcasting an interview with Wang Xinzhong." Only three trial "audit permits" were issued to his family. The rest of his relatives and friends were restricted from approaching the court. The trial proceedings were strictly blocked. One family member attempted to take notes during the trial with a pen, which a security officer confiscated.
Wang Shengbiao was illegally sentenced to eleven-and-a-half years in prison. He was sent to the Strict Control Group at the No. 4 Prison in Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province, where he has been held up until now. The guards at the Strict Control Group brutally beat detainees, humiliate them and use other torture on the practitioners, including sleep deprivation. They also isolate practitioners from others in an attempt to "reform" them.
