Falun Gong Practitioners Suffer Inhumane Torture in Tailai Prison, Heilongjiang Province

September 11, 2004 |  

(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioners who refuse to renounce their belief are inhumanely tortured at the Tailai County Prison in Heilongjiang Province. The prison also tried to block the news from getting out.

The prison police tied ropes and chains to practitioners' arms and legs, with their faces down, and several bricks under their chests. It is similar to the ancient torture called "separating the body by five horses" (1).

The police also put an iron board under the hot sun, and then put practitioners on top of the extremely hot board. Practitioners got blisters all over their bodies. Then, the police would pour cold water on them to shock their systems.

A month ago, Harbin Prison in Harbin City sent over 20 Falun Gong practitioners to the Tailai Prison to torture them. Further details are being investigated.

Note:

(1) Separating the body by five horses is a torture where the victim is tied to one end of five ropes from the victim's head, arms, and legs, and the other end of the ropes are tied to five horses. The horses then run toward five different directions to tear apart the body)
