Jiamusi Forced Labour Camp Brutally Tortures Ms. Wan Shuying

Dafa practitioner Ms. Wan Shuying was illegally detained in the Jiamusi Forced Labour Camp for not giving up her belief in Falun Dafa.

Shortly after 8 p.m. on October 27, 2002, prison guards Chen Chunxiang and Sun Limin handcuffed Wan Shuying to the edge of a bed in a "forced backbend" position (This is a very painful form of torture in which one arm is reaching down the back behind the head and the other hand meets it from the lower back. The two hands are cuffed together to cause unbearable pain). The prison guards loosened the cuffs a bit at midnight, but Ms. Wan's hands were still painfully cuffed behind her back in this excruciating position. When it was breakfast time, she remained handcuffed. The guards asked someone else to feed Ms. Wan, but she was in too much pain to eat. Around the same time, prison guard Li Yongbo violently shook Ms. Wan's extremely sore arms to cause her further suffering.

At 12 p.m., three male prison guards attempted to transfer Ms. Wan to the men's cellblock. Female prison guards: Li Xiujin, Xun Limin, Zhang Xiaodan and several collaborators [Former Falun Gong practitioners who have renounced the practice due to brainwashing and torture and assist in persecuting Dafa practitioners.] used both threats and brainwashing to attempt to force Ms. Wan to write a "renunciation of belief" statement. Ms. Wan firmly refused. As a result she was cuffed into the "forced backbend" position again. The prison guards asked the collaborators to continue the brainwashing until later that evening. Later that night, prison guards Li Xiujin and others came many times to force her to sign on the "renunciation of belief" statement. Ms. Wan still refused. After 24 hours of both psychological and physical torture, she could bear no more, so she signed the statement with great pain in her heart. Only when she agreed to sign were the handcuffs removed.

On March 5, 2003, Division Leader Hong Wei brought Ms. Wan to a big room and forced her to write "Five Statements," which is a series of statements to further renouncing belief in Falun Dafa and even attempting to force her to write defamatory statements regarding her belief. When Ms Wan refused, she was handcuffed in the "forced backbend" position to the bedside again by prison guards Hong Wei, Wu Xiaoping and Wang Guizhen. Prison guards Wu Xiaoping and Wang Guizhen exerted all their effort to raise Ms Wan's hands and tighten the handcuffs so that Ms. Wan's hands were suspended in the air. Ms. Wan was screaming in pain. In a short while her hands turned black. Seeing this, the prison guards released the handcuffs. However, they took the handcuffs off in a manner to deliberately cause Ms. Wan extreme pain. After they released the handcuffs they pretended to show concern to Ms. Wan by applying hot towels to her injured wrists. This actually caused more pain to Ms. Wan. Not long after this incident, the prison guards handcuffed her in a forced backbend with one palm facing up and one facing down. After torturing Ms. Wan for more than two hours she was wet with perspiration and her face was sickly pale. Prison guard Hong Wei then came in and unlocked her handcuffs and ferociously said to her, "You could not bear it even if you were tough and strong." Then the prison guard switched the position of her hands and tightened the handcuffs as tight possible and walked out of the room. The pain was so much that Ms. Wan shrieked in agony. Prison guard Hong Wei was called in again to unlock the handcuffs. It took him quite some time to unlock them because of how tight they were. He found that there was a big lump on Ms. Wan's hand. It looked like her wrist had broken. The skin on her wrists was torn apart by this time as well. Even under these circumstances, the prison guards still attempted to force her to write the so-called "Five Statements."
