Detained for Over a Year
Director Suo Jingdong and officers from the Nanshuangmiaoxiang Police Station ransacked Ms. Song's home on October 24, 2016. They confiscated her personal belongings and arrested her. She was held in Cell 306 of the Chaoyang City Detention Center, which is overseen by guards Bao Yingying and Xu Jing.
Relentless Torture
Ms. Song was tortured from the time she arrived in the detention center. She was forced to sit in a full lotus position for more than 14 hours each day and was brutally beaten if she moved. She developed sores on her ankles that got infected and festered.
Guards ordered inmates to beat her. They also stole her warm clothes and bedding, leaving her uncovered during the frigid winter.
She was only allowed to wear underwear during the winter of 2016. The windows were open during the day and there was no bedding for her at night. Her health deteriorated and she lost a lot of weight. Inmates also forced drugs down her throat and she was beaten until she bled.
Guard Xu Jing ordered several inmates to “wash” her on December 7, 2016. They stripped her, pinned her to the ground, poured cold water over her, and opened the window.
She was forced to stand for long periods of time starting in April 2017. Two inmates at a time watched her in two-hour shifts. She had to stand straight, and any movement prompted a beating.
