1. Ms. Wang Wenjuan was handcuffed continuously for four months

On the evening of April 7, 2002, Wang Wenjuan tried to write down Teacher's articles from memory and was seen by a spy who reported her to the captain. The captain asked her to go to the office but she refused. The next day the captain had a talk with her and asked her to agree to the conditions the captain laid out. Ms. Wang rejected them. On August 8, Wang Wenjuan was brought to the first floor and handcuffed to a heating pipe. She was handcuffed there day and night for an entire month until finally a guard handcuffed her to the bedside. From then on she was able to rest on the bed, but remained handcuffed, sometimes with one hand, sometimes both. One day, Team Leader Zhang Yan was annoyed seeing her sitting on a chair and said maliciously, "It is too easy for you to sit. Get up. Don't sit there. Stand up and stay standing until this evening." The team leader then had a person take the chair away. Ms. Wang stood there until after 3 a.m. Finally, she could not bear it anymore and she used her foot to pull a military overcoat over to her and used it as a cushion to sit on. (Her arm was handcuffed too high up for her to sit comfortably on the floor). Ms. Wang remained handcuffed for four months this way.

In December 2002, Masanjia Labor Camp began to implement the so-called "forced conversion" of those steadfast practitioners. During that period, Masanjia sent for brainwashing helpers from many places in Liaoning Province to help in converting practitioners. Practitioner Wang Wenjuan would not comply with their demands to renounced Falun Dafa and was ordered to squat. Five days later she was sent back to the branch team after they found that she did not waver in her belief at all. The branch team kept trying to force her to convert. First, they ordered her to squat again but she refused. Then they handcuffed her to a heating pipe that was so high that her feet barely touched the floor, even with her arm straight. She was hung there this way for two days and a night. They also tried other ways to torture her. They dragged her onto the bed and tied up each of her hands separately for several days. On the third day they stopped her meals, and let her starve for the next three days. Then they brutally force-fed her. Later, they forced her to squat, with both hands shackled to the bed, and she was forced to maintain that position for a day and a night. Afterwards, they made her cross her legs in a full-lotus position and tied her up for a day and a half.

2. Ms. Wang Suxia was handcuffed and hung up for many days and deprived of sleep

During the forced conversion campaign in December 2002, the camp guards tied practitioner Wang Suxia's legs up for a whole night. The next day they handcuffed her to a radiator pipe, at such a high position that she was barely able to stand on the ground. They kept her in this position for many days and would not let her sleep. Only one restroom visit was allowed per day. Ms. Wang was very steadfast. The guards kept her on the first floor where all the steadfast practitioners were held, but eventually they stopped trying to convert her.

3. Ms. Pan Jing's legs were tied up for 26 hours

Pan Jing was taken to Masanjia Labor Camp in November 2002. During the forced conversion period in 2002, the guards tied her legs up for 26 hours, causing long-term damage to her legs. They also forced her to squat, and handcuffed her. Her legs have still not recovered.

4. Ms. Xia Ning was put in solitary confinement for over 40 days, causing infections to her buttocks

Xia Ning was taken to Masanjia in July 2001. During the forced conversion period, the guards forced her to stand with a bucket of water on her head. They also made her kneel on a ribbed board. They stripped her shirt off and pulled her outside. She was deprived of sleep for an entire week. Once, several people grabbed her hand and forced her to sign and press her fingerprints on papers denouncing Falun Gong.

Xia Ning was put in solitary confinement for a month in 2001, during which time she kept reciting Dafa teachings, sending forth righteous thoughts, and doing the exercises. When her hands were shackled, which was the usual situation, she would send forth righteous thoughts. When the guards released her during lunch, she would do the exercises. To stop her from doing anything, the guards handcuffed her to the bed frame and made her stand continuously for a week, causing her legs to swell badly. The guards gagged her with socks and broke her jaw while she was trying to recite Dafa teachings. They also gagged her as hard as they could using a towel, causing her to shed tears. They even smothered her, and they tied her up and forced her to stay in the bathroom. She was placed in solitary confinement several more times. The longest time lasted over 40 days. Her buttocks were seriously infected and festering. However, no matter how they tortured her, Xia Ning did not waver in her belief.

When Xia Ning went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong, she was beaten by the police for a whole night because she would not tell them her name. The police took turns beating her. They poured cold water onto her clothes, and then left her outside in the cold to freeze. She did not tell them her name even when they burned her face with cigarettes. (She still has the scars from cigarette burns on her face.)

5. Ms. Liu Baoyu was tied up painfully for 26 hours

When the "Brainwashing Helpers" in Liaoning Province tried to convert Liu Baoyu, four people forced her to cross her legs backwards and then tied them up. They held her down and did not let her move, taunting her, "Are you going to do the exercises? We are helping you."
