(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Zhu Hongbin, formerly an employee at the Seventh Oil Extraction Plant of Daqing City Petroleum Bureau, died on June 18, 2009, after being brutally tortured during his illegal detainment in the Hongweixing Prison in Daqing City.

While being detained in the Hongweixing Prison, Mr. Hong was injected with an unknown drug which caused him to lose consciousness. When he regained consciousness, he experienced severe memory loss, including the loss of short term memory.

On December 29, 2001, Mr. Zhu was in his office when former Party Secretary of Seventh Oil Extraction Plant, Liu Dianlin and former Party Secretary of the Number One Mine of Seventh Oil Extraction Plant, Nie Xiaohui, and policemen Li Kun, Gao Xiaodong, and others from the Seventh Oil Extraction Plant Police Station used the excuse of paying a "follow-up visit" to check on Mr. Zhu. They wanted Mr. Hong and others to write a guarantee statement and repentance statement, which Mr. Hong refused to do.

Li Kun searched Mr. Zhu's body and found that he was carrying truth clarification materials with him. Li led some people to ransack Mr. Zhu's home and took away Falun Gong materials and books, and used them as "evidence" to illegally sentence Mr. Zhu to seven years in prison.

When Mr. Zhu was in prison, the guards deprived him of food, sleep, and use of the restroom. Five days later, they forced a feeding tube in through Mr. Zhu's nose, down his throat and into his stomach, though there was no need for such measures. A guard once forced a bowl of milk powder down into Zhu's lungs, causing ulceration in his lungs, which then led to heart trouble.

The prison guards constantly incited inmates to beat Mr. Zhu, especially when their superiors came to inspect the prison. Because Mr. Zhu refused to wear the prison uniform, they grabbed Mr. Zhu's head and slammed it against the wall or the ground repeatedly until he passed out.

The prison guards also hung Mr. Zhu on the wall for three days with his hands and legs spread apart. When they took Mr. Zhu down, his arms were so swollen that he was unable to walk normally for several days.

When Mr. Zhu was released from the prison on December 29, 2008, he was too weak to walk out of the prison himself, but the guards wouldn't let his family go in to pick him up. An inmate who was also just released put Mr. Zhu on the back and carried him out of the prison. Mr. Zhu died six months later after his release.

A few days before Mr. Zhu died, his family received several anonymous phone calls to inquire about his health. When asked to identify himself and state the purpose of his call, the caller would not say anything
