Notes:
(1) The detainee is locked up in a very small cell individually. The guards handcuff practitioners with their hands behind their backs in a fixed position in which the practitioners can neither move nor lie down. The small cell is very damp and no sunshine comes in. Detainees have to urinate and defecate in the cell. Only half of a regular meal is served to detainees locked up in a small cell. During the night, rats are running around. The stench in the small cell is so bad that it is difficult to breathe.
(2) With both hands shackled, both feet off the ground or only the toes touching the ground, one is hung by the handcuffs from a basketball support or a beam. The hands and arms will soon become immovable and numb as a result of this torture.
