Facts of the Persecution

How Jilin No. 2 Prison Persecutes Falun Dafa Practitioners

Jilin No. 2 Prison established a so-called "Correction Center" and used tortures, such as tying practitioners with ropes, brutal stretching, beatings, sitting on a hard bench for extended periods, and sleep deprivation in an attempt to break the spirit of the practitioners. The brutal stretching causes injuries to the victim's muscles and tendons. One can become unconscious after about 10 minutes of this torture. Mr. Hui Xuan, a practitioner from Dehui City, endured all kinds of torture at the "Correction Center." Some of his teeth were knocked out. In the end, he signed the statement denouncing Falun Gong since he could not endure the tortures any more.

A short while ago, all wards in the prison conducted an "Intensive Group Study to Transform." They made the practitioners sit on an iron strip one meter long and 20 centimeters wide. Those who refused to cooperate were locked up in a small cell.

Those on hunger strikes were force-fed with highly concentrated salt water. Practitioners Xin Wei, Wang Qibo, Wang Fengcai were put under "Strict Surveillance." Xin Wei's eyes have been injured and are bloodshot.
