    Ms. Wu Xiaohong Tortured until She Loses Consciousness

    On January 26, 2010, Ms. Wu Xiaohong, a Falun Gong practitioner from Qiqihar, Heilongjiang Province, was arrested. At approximately 3:00 p.m., five police officers, including Han Dai and Li Xianfeng, arrested Ms. Wu at her store inside Huibo Shopping Mall. Later that day, the police went to Ms. Wu's apartment, hired a locksmith to unlock the door and then ransacked the apartment, taking away a number of personal items.

    The police interrogated Ms. Wu overnight at Wenhua Road Police Station in Jianhua District. In order to make her talk, police officers tortured her until she bled severely. Ms. Wu lost consciousness, then the police took her to the emergency room of the local hospital. When Ms. Wu regained consciousness, the police brought her back to the police station where they resumed torturing her. On the morning of January 27, she was again unconscious and bleeding heavily. Not wanting to draw attention to what they had done, the police sent for a doctor to come to the station this time rather than sending Ms. Wu back to the hospital.

    Early in the afternoon of January 28, relatives of Ms. Wu went to the hospital to see her, but were not allowed to visit. At approximately 5:00 p.m. on the same afternoon, at least five police officers dragged Ms. Wu to a police vehicle and moved her to Qiqihar Detention Center. Witnesses said that she was barely recognizable.

    On the 27th of January, 2010, before 10 a.m. another practitioner, Ms. Wu Xiaohua, was arrested at home by Jianshe Road Police Station in Qiqihar City. On January 28, Ms. Wu was released. However, the police continued to put her under surveillance.
