For a long time, captors at the Daqing Prison have been cruelly tortured illegally detained Falun Dafa practitioners. At least 46 Dafa practitioners have been tortured to death [while in the prison] since July 1999. The jailers at the Daqing Prison continue to commit crimes against Dafa and Dafa practitioners. Since October 2005, the newly appointed head of the prison Wang Yongxiang has personally directed guards and inmates to torture and abuse Dafa practitioners.
Below is a list of some of the crimes Wang Yongxiang has committed against Dafa:
Since November 2005, Wang Yongxiang has forced Dafa practitioners to do slave labor for extended periods of time. The work includes weaving flax for more than 13 hours a day. Some practitioners are forced to work even when they are ill and are not given any breaks.
Wang Yongxiang ordered his subordinates to detain Dafa practitioners in solitary confinement, tie them in a metal chair and savagely torture them. With his encouragement, Dong Menghuan, Li Fengjiang, Li Hongda, Li Liancai, Guo Liyang, Zhang Dezhi, Wang Anhui and others who tortured Dafa practitioners Xu Jishan and Yuan Qingjiang to death are still grossly abusing persecuting Dafa practitioners.
Wang Yongxiang physically and verbally abuses Dafa practitioners and also withholds their food.
Since January 26, 2006, more than 20 Dafa practitioners held at Daqing Prison went on a protest hunger strike and demanded an end to the persecution. These practitioners are still on hunger strike: Jin Sheng, Yao Bin, Bo Fanwei, Deng Qingshan, Jiang Derong, Wang Junfeng, Wang Yudong, Wu Chunwen, Wu Chunwen, Liu Guifu, Zhang Xingye, Li Ronghong, Zuo Guoyan, Zhao Yu'an, Sun Tienong, Qiu Xuezhi, Li Huifeng, Li Hai, Zhang Zhi, Li Zhanbin, Di Zhibin, Li Chao, Zhang Xiufeng.
