(Minghui.org) “In Jilin Prison, letting you live for six days means you would be dead by day five.” – Not only was this claimed publicly by prison guard Wang Yuanchun, but it is also a true reflection of the brutal persecution in Jilin Prison.
Eighteen Falun Gong practitioners have been persecuted to death in Jilin Prison since the persecution of Falun Gong began in July 1999, according to incomplete statistics. One of these practitioners was Liu Chengjun from Changchun. Wang Yuanchun, the responsible prison guard, has always actively participated in persecuting Falun Gong practitioners.
Wang gathered more than 40 practitioners beginning on March 31, 2013, to try to force them to “transform,” and give up their beliefs. These practitioners have now all been detained in the Education Division for more than a month and subjected to electric shock torture. They are not allowed to go downstairs. Three practitioners are in solitary confinement.
Various methods of torture have been employed on practitioners during the past years of persecution, including forcing them to sit on wood boards from 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., not allowing them to talk, restroom privileges restricted to certain times, insufficient food during meals, term extensions if any practitioner refuses to “transform,” and ordering inmates to monitor and beat practitioners. These were all Wang's ideas.
Wang contacted the 610 Office some time ago, requesting to participate in the persecution of Falun Gong. Prison director Geng Mingcai and chief of Education Section Zhao Jing, ordered the brutal persecution in the prison, and Wang executed their orders, including putting practitioners in solitary confinement. He often extended practitioners' terms and created a horrifying atmosphere by pushing practitioners' minds and bodies to their limits, then sending in collaborators to threaten and deceive them.
Wang Yuanchun was already on the wanted list published by the World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG) before adding his latest tactics. The world's human rights organizations should investigate him and bring him to justice. Here we would like to advise him to repent for his actions so as to avoid a terrifying end.
