1. Jilin Third Municipal Lockup shackled together the hands and feet of practitioner Dong Lihua for as long as eight days
On October 15, 2004, when Ms. Dong Lihua from Longtan District, Jilin City, Jilin Province was distributing truth-clarification materials in Shulan County, she was arrested by the local police. That very evening, she was sent to Jilin Third Municipal Jail. The wicked police used handcuffs and foot-shackles to curl Ms. Dong up into a ball for as long as eight days. Ms Dong fasted from food and water to protest. Facility personnel force-fed her and added drugs into the food. During force-feeding, they inserted the feeding tube anywhere from two to five times, causing severe pain and injury to her esophagus. Sometimes, repeated insertion of the tube made people suffocate. During these eight days, Ms Dong lost 20 lbs and her heart was seriously injured from stressful periods of the torture. Her heartbeat was 150 times per minute. The wicked police still sent Ms Dong to Heizuizi Female Forced Labor Camp in Changchun City. Because she was extremely weak, the labor camp did not dare to accept her. She was sent back to Jilin City the same day.
