Mr. Li Shimin Suffers a Torture-Induced Nervous Breakdown

(Clearwisdom.net) [Note: The following is a shortened version of a longer and more detailed article that appeared on the minghui.ca website (Chinese version of Clearwisdom.net).]

Mr. Li Shimin, in his 30s and is from Hongqiangzi, Yi County. All of his numerous illnesses disappeared after he began practicing Falun Gong. Because he went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong, Qianmen Police Department officials in Beijing arrested and beat him. Hongqiangzi Police Station head Liu Xiangjun eventually took him back and held him at Yi County Detention Center where a doctor injected him with unknown substances. While this was happening, the local police ransacked his home and arrested his wife, leaving his two young children home alone. Officers from the Hongqiangzi Police Station extorted 2,300 yuan from his father before releasing his wife. Li Shimin was illegally sentenced to 18 months of forced labor and was taken to the Jinzhou Forced Labor Camp where he was brutally tortured. He was locked in solitary confinement, had to endure the Tiger Bench, and was subjected torture with electric shock batons, savage beatings, the "Big Hang-up" and sleep deprivation as well as injections with unknown substances, among other forms of abuse. He was released after 16 months of detention but then suffered a nervous breakdown as a result of unspeakable and long-term cruelties.

The officials responsible for grossly abusing Li Shimin include Liu Xiangjun from the Yi County Police Department, Li Songtao from the Jinzhou Forced Labor Camp, and police officers Bai Jinlong and Zhang Chunfeng.
