(Clearwisdom.net) Several police officers at Suihua Forced Labor Camp in Heilongjiang Province have committed horrible crimes against Dafa practitioners. Police officers Yang Bo, Gao Zhonghai, Fan Xiaodong and Zeng Lingjun, together with some who betrayed Dafa under pressure by the authorities, relentlessly worked to brainwash determined practitioners. They let criminal inmates torture practitioners and forced practitioners to pay different kinds of fees. Their ultimate goal is to force practitioners to renounce their belief in Dafa and write the "three-statements" and "one-denunciation," documents indicating a rejection of Dafa.
In March 2003, under the direction of police officers Fan Xiaodong, Liu Wei and Gao Zhonghai, criminal inmates Wang Rong, Ma Chunli and four others took turns beating practitioner Zheng Shuzhong. Mr. Zheng almost died from the severe injuries. He remained in bed over 20 days. He would vomit up whatever he ate. During a period of more than three weeks, Mr. Zheng endured unimaginable pain. He maintained the strongest righteous faith and survived the brutal ordeal. Even when Zheng was near death, however, the police did not slow their terrible campaign. They forced inmate Ma Chunli to provide false testimony. (Ma testified that, in order to reach consummation, Zheng Shuzhong hit his head against a radiator and headboard, causing himself harm). The authorities who tortured Mr. Zheng hoped to escape responsibility for his injuries by fabricating a cover up. Police officers Yang Bo and Fan Xiaodong openly declared, "The higher authorities ordered us to transform Falun Gong practitioners by whatever means. If any Falun Gong practitioner is killed, we can call that suicide." It's evident that many Falun Gong practitioners have been killed by Jiang's evil regime's persecution.
In November 2002, 30 police officers led by Yang Bo, Fan Xiaodong, Zeng Lingjun and Li Jian launched a torture campaign against Dafa practitioners. They brutally tortured over 20 practitioners, including Ren Zhongliang and Pan Yingkun. The police used punches and kicks, hanging by handcuffs, the tiger bench* and electric batons. Several police officers shocked Ren Zhongliang's entire body with four batons for six hours. His feet were badly burned by high voltage electricity and his legs were bleeding. He suffered a heart attack and nearly died. The police forced medicine down his throat and hung him up with handcuffs for three days and two nights. In the end, however, the police were unable to force Ren Zhongliang to renounce his belief in Falun Dafa. Also, they forced practitioners Li Shuwen and Pan Yingkun to sit on the tiger bench 24 hours a day. The police played loud music and denied them any sleep for days. This torture campaign lasted about 10 days.
Under such cruel persecution, Dafa practitioners maintained their righteous thoughts and acted according to the Fa. Zheng Shuzhong and Ren Zhongliang eventually walked out of the labor camp with their heads held high.
We appeal to all kind-hearted people in the world: Let's put our efforts together to end the evil persecution. May the principle of Truth-Compassion-Tolerance rise in people hearts.
Note: Those who know the police officers' addresses and phone numbers, are implored to share them with everyone so their crimes can be exposed to the world.
*Tiger Bench*
Practitioners are forced to sit on a small iron bench that is approximately 20 cm (6 inches) tall with their knees tied together. With their hands tied behind their backs or sometimes placed on their knees, they are forced to sit straight up and look straight ahead. They are not allowed to turn their heads, close their eyes, talk to anyone or move at all. Several inmates are assigned to watch over the practitioners and force them to remain motionless while sitting on the bench. Usually some hard objects are inserted underneath the practitioners' lower legs or ankles to make it harder for them to tolerate this abuse (see illustration on <http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2001/11/24/16156.html>)
