Falun Gong practitioners illegally detained in Daqing Prison in Heilongjiang province were on a hunger strike for 17 days from January 27th 2006 to February 11th 2006. Practitioners Zhang Zhi, Guan Zhaoqi, Wang Yudong, Li Ronghong, Zhao Yuan, Zhang Xingye and Pu Fanwei are now unable to get out of bed; they are very weak. Pu Fanwei is in a coma, and Zhang Zhi is in serious condition.

We urgently appeal to the international community and all people with a sense of justice to support these practitioners.

An inhumane group persecution is taking place in Daqing Prison. Since July 1999, at least 46 practitioners there have been killed. The authorities continue to commit crimes upon crimes. Prison Director Wang Yongxiang, who came to the prison in October of last year, is especially cruel and merciless. He personally directs the persecution there.

On January 26th 2006, Wang Yongxiang publicly beat practitioners Jiang Derong, Jia Shenghui, Sun Jianbin, Wang Yudong, and Jin Sheng, and locked them all up in solitary confinement to torture them.

After learning of this ill treatment, other practitioners began a hunger strike on January 27th to protest. Director Wang Yongxiang instigated the prison hospital Chief Gao Qing and Deputy Chief Huang Zhiwei to force-feed these practitioners with salt water once a day. He also ordered each ward to send practitioners to the prison hospital for forced intravenous injections.

On February 8th, policemen and inmates from the first ward sent practitioner Jin Sheng to the prison hospital. Deputy Chief of the hospital Huang Zhiwei ordered several inmates to strap Jin Sheng down in a bed and thrust in a tube to force-feed him. Jin Sheng did not cooperate with the force-feeding and pointed out that this is just another form of persecution. However, the inmates force-fed him with violence. Due to the violent insertion of the tube, his nose was covered in blood and he coughed up blood in his mouth until the inmates stopped in fear. Jin Sheng continued to try to persuade the perpetrators not to participate in the persecution. Huang Zhiwei not only did not listen to Jin Sheng but personally inserted the tubes even more aggressively. He also ordered the inmates to mix salt in the milk powder to fill his stomach.

Practitioners who participated in the hunger strike include Pu Fanwei, Jin Sheng, Wang Yudong, Zhang Zhi, Guan Zhaoqi, Zhang Zidong, Jiang Derong, Li Ronghong, Zhong Zhaoqin, Zou Guoyan, Wang Junfeng, Deng Qingshan, Yao bin, Li Chao, Li Zhanbin, Zhai Zhibin, Zhao Yuan and Zhang Xingye.
