2. [Liaoning Province] Practitioners Tortured in the No. 2 Women’s Prison
Ms. Wang Xueling of Dandong City and Ms. Zhang Jingchun are incarcerated in the Fourth Ward, Liaoning Province No. 2 Women’s Prison. Guards removed their clothing and shoes. Barefoot and wearing only their underwear, the practitioners were made to stand on the concrete floor. The guards opened the windows and exposed them to freezing winter temperatures. As a result, their feet became frostbitten, and the skin on their legs turned black.
Guards forced practitioners who refused to be transformed (refused to renounce Falun Gong) to stand from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., and sometimes until 2:00 a.m. on Sunday. They deprived the practitioners of visits with their family and the right to phone them. Inmates have to buy their own daily necessities. The guards capped the money that practitioners could spend to 50 to 100 yuan per month, and did not allow them to contact anyone or others to give them anything.
