(Clearwisdom.net) The following are truthful descriptions of the conditions that Falun Dafa practitioners were subjected to in Zhangshi Brainwashing Center, Shenyang City, Liaoning Province.
An unknown substance was then poured into the tube. Some police threatened to use beer. Others incited the perpetrators to prepare very dry and salty corn paste, which is hard for the stomach to bear, and leaves the mouth completely dry after the feeding. During the process, the people involved rotated the tube or yanked it back and forth to increase the pain.
Every time a practitioner was force-fed, she sent out a heart-rending, painful groan. The accomplices giggled and laughed wildly. These two sounds echoed throughout the entire small building of Zhangshi. It was beyond description.
Practitioners were thrown down onto a bed. A guard pressed his legs against the body and held the arms down with his hands. At the same time, another persecutor violently forced the upper and lower jaws apart. Practitioners were often beaten severely on the face during the process. After an extended period of such torture, the stainless-steel tool was pushed between the teeth, and twisted to open up very large. Dafa practitioners' mouths were opened so that they could be opened no further. The joints in both jaws were almost torn apart.
The accomplice would then rapidly pour bowls full of water into the mouth, while holding the practitioner's nose. If the practitioner made an effort to spit it out, he or she would be beaten. Usually water was poured quickly, and the next bowl would be pouring before the first one was finished, causing the practitioner to gasp for air and feel weak. Some teeth were broken or torn out by the tool. This happened three or four times every day, and sometimes the personnel even filled the bowl with unknown drugs.
