Gang Torture Method Used at Zhanjiang City Brainwashing Center

Zhanjiang City Police Department and the City 610 Office not only use the method of "gang torture" to brutally abuse Falun Gong practitioners, but also is the major concentration base for the persecution of Falun Gong in Guangdong (Canton) Province.

It is believed that the method of "gang torture" was learned from the Hainan Province 610 Office. The gang torture, literally called "flesh instrument of torture" in Chinese, works as follows: A victim is taken to an isolated room where he or she is forced to stand up and surrounded by a group of perpetrators. Some of them strike the victim's head, while others beat the his or her body. When hitting the head, some guards push the victim with an open palm, others punch with their fists. At the same time they constantly curse and bully the victim with nasty words. In order to prevent the victim from falling down, some of them hold the victim's hands and simultaneously push and pull him or her around and around. By this way, they can actually punch the victim's body and head from different angles and directions, but especially target the head.

The injuries from this torture are not immediately visible. When the perpetrators concentrate on striking the victim's head while turning the person around, the victim will experience internal hemorrhaging, lack of oxygen to the brain, dizziness, and weakness. During this torture the victims with less injuries will vomit, incur neck injuries, fierce headaches, and be unable to eat. Those who are severely injured will lose consciousness, go into a vegetative state, or even die from cerebral hemorrhaging.

One of victims is Ms. He Zhiwei. Her symptoms indicate that she was gang tortured. The Chinese version of clearwisdom.net reported her case on June 21.

Ms. He Zhiwei, 40, was born in Nanhai City, Guangdon Province. She was a department manager of an enterprise in Zhuhai City. After the CCP and former dictator Jiang Zemin started persecuting Falun Gong in July 1999, Ms. He Zhiwei was sentenced to two years of forced labor, and was later taken to a brainwashing center. She was subjected to many kinds of torture, dismissed from her job, and forced to be divorced from her husband.

On April 9, 2009, the Zhuhai City 610 Office used the excuse of Ms. He being unwilling to be "transformed" to again illegally arrest her. She was imprisoned at Sanshui Brainwashing Center in Guangdong Province. No matter how severely she was mistreated she refused to relinquish her beliefs. Ms. He was later transferred to Zhanjiang City Brainwashing Center. Local CCP authorities attempt further to "transform" her using the cruel gang torture method.
