I am a female Falun Dafa practitioner. In mid-February, I went to the National Appeals Bureau. I wanted to appeal for justice for Falun Dafa and our beloved teacher. Our teacher has saved the lives of my whole family, including myself.
I was detained immediately when I stepped into the Appeals Bureau. After a little while, the Beijing office of Zhang City took us away. Later, the police from troop 51 of Zhang City transferred us back to Zhang city. We arrived at the police station at about 11 p.m. They interrogated me immediately after I got out of the car. Director Deng ordered us to kneel on the floor and at the same time stretch our forearms parallel to the ground. We also had to wear metallic helmets. The police punched and kicked us when we could not maintain this exact posture. They cursed and tortured us until dawn. They then cuffed one of my arms to the upper deck of a bed in the messenger's room. The next morning when they came to work, they cuffed my hands high up in the outdoor garage. They did not give me water or food for a whole day.
At about 11 p.m., they took me to the assistant director's office. I was cold and hungry. Secretary Wang and the director had come. Without saying a word, they slapped my face a couple of times, which made me feel dizzy. At this time, director Deng handcuffed me, putting a handkerchief inside each cuff. He then held the handcuff firmly and swung me back and forth till he was exhausted. He then stomped on the handcuff with all his weight. One of the policemen who stood at the side rushed over to open the handcuff. He thought that my wrists would have been broken from the torture! Director Deng was constantly trying to shock my hands with a stun baton, but it still would not work after several trials, and he had to give up.
He said, "Let's see how tough can a Falun Gong practitioner be!"
He then frenziedly shocked my face. The minute I got up, they forced me to stretch my arms horizontally. They even put the helmet on my forearms. They ridiculed and insulted me. Secretary Wang and the director did not think this was enough. They ordered me to bend down and pulled down my pants and underwear in front of all the people. There was no woman at the site. They spanked my buttocks with their leather shoes. The secretary and the director took turns hitting me. My behind was all bruised. I heard from the office afterwards that their shoes had broken during the beating. Later, they ordered me to hold the wheel over my head (the 2nd exercise). At this time, blood came out of my mouth. They did not allow me to clean up the blood, so I was left with no choice and swallowed it. At that moment, I only wished that my display of endurance and compassion could wake up their conscience. However, they had already lost their humanity. They thought that I was stupid and ignorant. They laughed at me and tortured me even more. The director brought over a basin of water. They again pulled down my pants and spanked my naked buttocks with a washing board. They asked me if I would continue to practice Falun Gong.
I said, "Yes."
Their inhumanity and thuggish acts had strengthened my belief. Only because I am a cultivator of Falun Dafa, could I understand the profound principles and have the heart of compassion and tolerance. At dawn, they were tired from torturing me. They handcuffed me to a chair. In the morning, they sent me to the Thirteen Mile detention camp. Many practitioners were held there. They cried when they saw the bruises all over my body. Fifteen days later, I was transferred to Xuanhua detention camp. I was released after a month of hunger strike. I had spent 45 days in prison. After being discharged from prison, I paid a 1,000 Yuan fine, for which no receipt was given. This is how I was rewarded for my appeal.
The reason that I have written down my experience is to wake up those kindhearted people. This abnormal condition needs to be corrected. Right now I am still under surveillance.
There were two other practitioners whose pants were pulled down and buttocks were spanked. One had already been sent to a labor camp; the other was also supposed to be sent to a labor camp but has eluded police.
Witnesses: All the practitioners of Zhang City that were being detained.
