Practitioner Ms. Zhou Huimin Tortured To Brink of Death
(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Zhou Huimin from Sichuan
Province was arrested in Chengdu on the evening of September 26, 2007. On
February 1, 2008, personnel from the Chenghua District Police Department took
her to the Nanmusi Women's Forced Labor Camp in Sichuan Province. Ms. Zhou
Huimin has been on hunger strike to protest her arrest and the persecution of
Falun Dafa. She was taken to Qingyang District Hospital on Wanhe Road, Chengdu
City on February 5, and she is reportedly now in a coma. She cannot speak and
her life is in danger. Local Party authorities have told her family to prepare
for her death. Ms. Zhou Huimin has been arrested six times. She was imprisoned at Nanmusi
Women's Forced Labor Camp in Sichuan Province on three of those occasions.
During the 856 days of her illegal imprisonment, she was subjected to many kinds
of torture. On September 7-19, 2002, she was tortured at the Qingyang District
Hospital. For 12 hours every day, she was hung on a bed frame by foot shackles
and two handcuffs, one from her calf and one from her hand. Armed police and
wardens from the detention center took shifts monitoring her. The Qingyang District Hospital in Chengdu City, in cooperation with the
610 Office, the police department, and the detention center, have
tortured many Falun Dafa practitioners to death since 1999, when the persecution
of Falun Dafa began. The number of confirmed deaths here has reached eight. The
claimed cause of the deaths is "organ failure due to hunger strike." Rural Enterprise Bureau Deputy Director Ms. Huang Min (a practitioner) was
tortured to death in August 2007. An unknown yellow drug in her mouth spread all
over her face and emitted an irritating smell. Ms. Duan Shiqiong from Chongqing
City, also a practitioner, was tortured to death in September 2003. Her husband
was shown a corpse, but not that of his wife. Ms. Duan Shiqiong's remains are
still to be recovered. Why did the police switch the corpses? Who was the
unidentified body? Related persons and workunits participating in the persecution: Police Department Chief Mu Jiping (male), 86-28-86406401 (Office),
