(Clearwisdom.net) Not too long ago, Clearwisdom.net exposed the facts about how former Disciplinary Committee Secretary Mr. Liao Yuanhua from Wuxue City suffered brutal abuse in the Shayang City Fanjiatai Labor Camp. Lots of people paid special attention to this matter. People are talking about all the good deeds Mr. Liao did as a government official. When Mr. Liao was the head of the Workers Safety Bureau, he personally visited the home of a ninety-year-old retiree to deliver his pension payment. When Mr. Liao was Disciplinary Committee Secretary for the Agricultural Bureau, he never accepted gifts from lower level government officials. He even paid out of his own pocket for the bottled water his co-worker sent to him while working in the flood control tent.
Mr. Liao Yuanhua was arrested in 2000. After he was detained in Wuxue City prison for more than one year, he was sentenced and sent to Shayang, where he suffered inhuman abuses. In October 2003, when some officials visited Mr. Liao in the prison hospital, they showed him fliers describing the inhuman abuses he and other Falun Gong practitioners suffered. Mr. Liao read through the flier carefully and said, "These things are all true; it was even worse than what the flyers describe." While pointing to policemen Xiao and Xiong who were monitoring him, he said, "It was they who did this." When Mr. Liao raised his feet to show the visiting officials the burned skin on his feet, policeman Xiao fiercely struck his feet to prevent him from doing so. Xiao accused Mr. Liao, "It was your fault; you leaked information about all of this. Otherwise, how would people know all the details?"
Mr. Liao was on a hunger strike for more than 30 days, yet the police continued to torture him. Three times a day they cuffed Mr. Liao's hands and feet and inserted tubes into his stomach to force-feed him. The head of the prison hospital said, "If we cannot force-feed him this way, we will cut his throat open and pour the food in him." The physical exam showed Mr. Liao to be extremely weak, yet they did not stop their savage persecution.
