Ms. Zhang Chenglan Persecuted in Shandong No. 1 Women's Forced Labor Camp (Photos)

(Clearwisdom.net) The Fourth Division of Shandong No. 1 Women's Forced Labor Camp now detains around thirty practitioners. Ms. Zhang Chenglan is under block-out supervision there.

Two drug criminals supervise her, and force Ms. Zhang stay awake until midnight and restrict her freedom of movement. We often see Ms. Zhang's face and mouth bleeding and swollen, even unable to eat. One night, the block-out room added an additional person. With six beds full, Ms. Zhang couldn't sleep at midnight. When Ms. Zhang asked how she could sleep, the criminals beat her. Since Ms. Zhang was illegally detained at the Fourth Division, her family went to visit her. No matter who went to see and send clothes and money to her, the prison guards said they had never persecuted or beat her. However, they refused to allow Ms. Zhang to meet with her family members, and they didn't tell her who came to visit her. Even when Ms. Zhang's husband and son went to see and send clothes to her, the guards not only refused to let them see her, but also retained their letter to her. The guards and other prisoners block all news from the outside.
