Ms. Chuai Cuijun |
Ms. Chai Junxia |
Ms. Chuai Cuijun and Ms. Chai Junxia are cousins. They have both benefited physically and mentally from practicing Falun Dafa. Since March 2004, their home has been ransacked five times. Five members of the family (Ms. Chuai Cuijun, Ms. Chai Junxia, their husbands, and mother-in-law) have been illegally detained six times.
Ms. Chuai is currently detained at the 3rd District of the Hebei Women's Prison. Because she refused to recite the prison's rules during family visits, the guards revoked her visitation rights, and none of her family members have been allowed to visit her for more than half a year.
Ms. Chai is being detained at the 6th District of the Hebei Women's Prison. In January 2009, she was brutally tortured by the guards and suffered beatings, electric shock, being locked in a small cell, and being forbidden to sleep for an extended period of time. As a result, she developed chronic eye and stomach pain, for which no medical treatment has been provided.
On November 4, 2009, several family members of Ms. Chuai and Ms. Chai traveled a long distance to the Hebei Women's Prison to visit them. However, when they arrived, they saw a notice posted on the prison gate, which said that all prison visits in the province were being canceled due to the H1N1 virus. This was not the first time the prison prohibited the family to visit.
Ms. Chuai
Ms. Chuai was arrested on May 13, 2006, while she was distributing truth clarification materials in Yuhuzhai Town, Qianxi County. She was detained and brutally tortured at the Qianxi Detention Center, including being force-fed with concentrated salt water, forced to give blood, forced to wear heavy shackles on her hands and feet, and other cruel methods. The Qianxi County 610 Office, Political and Judiciary Committee, Domestic Security Division, Procurator, and court fabricated the "evidence," and changed court records in order to illegally sentence Ms. Chuai to 5 years in prison.
Ms. Chuai's appeal to the Tangshan Middle Court was rejected, and she was taken to the Hebei Women's Prison on April 16, 2007. At the prison, she was brutally beaten and verbally abused. The guards forced her to do long hours of labor. They also forbade her to sleep for three days in a row on one occasion. Since she refused to comply with the guards' unreasonable demands to recite the prison rules during family visits or while making phone calls, the guards took away her phone privileges, and have not allowed her family members to visit her for over 6 months. Her family is very worried about her.
Ms. Chai
Ms. Chai was arrested on July 18, 2007. Zhu Zhenggang, director of the Qianxi Domestic Security Division, Zhang Yinbo, director of the Qianxi Chengguan Police Station, and a dozen police officers climbed the exterior wall and broke into her home late at night. They arrested her and her mother-in-law, ransacked their home and took a computer, a printer, books and other things. Only her elderly father-in-law, who suffered from a stroke, and three frightened children remained at home. On the same night, Zhang Yinbo brought a group of policemen to the Jinchangyu Mine and arrested Mr. Chuai Zhiwu, Ms. Chai's brother-in-law. Ms. Chai was charged with "preparing to commit a crime" and sentenced to 4 years in prison. She was taken to the Hebei Women's Prison on April 21, 2008.
On January 8, 2009, Wu Hongxia, the new director of the 6th District of the prison, using the excuse that Ms. Chai did not respect her, brutally tortured and electrically shocked Chai, and did not allow her to sleep for a long period of time. She was also locked in small cell where there was no bed, and she was given only half a bowl of cold water each day.
As a result Ms. Chai developed chronic eye and stomach pain. During a visit on October 22, her husband noted that Ms. Chai was very thin and pale, and there were many small bumps on her eyelids. He went to the prison officials, informed them about her bad health condition, and asked them to investigate her mistreatment. The political section chief agreed to investigate, promised to give him an answer at the next visit, and said that Ms. Chai could go to an outside hospital for an examination if the prison hospital doctors provide such a recommendation.
When Ms. Chai's husband arrived for the next visit, the guards refused to let him see his wife. Li Hongzhen, the head of the 6th District, showed him a note that he claimed was written by Ms. Chai. The note said: "Don't worry. I'm OK. My eyes and stomach do not hurt much." Ms. Chai's husband does not know where this note came from, and doubts that he does not need to worry.
