2. Prisoners in Heilongjiang Province Women's Prison Are Instructed to Torture Falun Dafa Practitioners

The Heilongjiang Province Women's Prison has instituted a so-called "Five-in-a-group" monitoring system for jailed Falun Dafa practitioners, which means that four regular prisoners are required to watch one Falun Dafa practitioner. One morning in December 2004, Ms. Tao Shuping, a uniformed guard from the Fourth Ward, observed practitioner Ms. Yan Shufen doing the sitting meditation on her bed and threatened each group leader (prisoners) and supervisor on duty that she would deduct merit points. Before the start of the persecution in 1999, prison supervisors used to encourage prisoners to learn Falun Dafa. Even aaaafter the persecution started, ten prisoners still persisted in the practice: Ms. Zheng Guiqin, Ms. Xie Yaqin, Ms. Zhang Yanfang, Ms. Gao Xiuzhen, Ms. Gao Guobo, Ms. Zhao Fengxia, Ms. Hu Guiyan, Ms. Feng Haibo, Ms. Feng Shurong, and Ms. Tang Yajun. On November 11, 2004, prisoner Song Yayun said, "Falun Gong (practitioners) all try to be good people, and they are teaching others be good people too. If I had known them earlier, I would never have committed crimes in the first place. Why are you keeping me away from them?" As a result, she was punished by being locked into a small cell (1) for 35 days, handcuffed from behind, kicked and beaten. Guard Tao Shuping locked prisoner Liu Lingling in a small cell because she was studying Falun Gong teachings. Liu was later released when the New Year's Day holiday was approaching. Some practitioners, including Ms. Hu Jiayan, Ms. Feng Haibo, and Ms. Feng Shurong, refused to participate in the forced labor and were locked in small cells. Ms. Hu Jiayan was handcuffed and forced to squat overnight in the hallway by the metal gate. The guards also conducted brainwashing sessions in the orientation ward, the ward for doing packaging for shipments, and the patient ward.

Note:

(1) Small cell - The detainee is locked into a very small cell in isolation. The guards handcuff practitioners on their backs in a fixed position, which does not permit room to move or to lie down. The small cell is very damp and no daylight penetrates. Detainees have to urinate and defecate in the cell. Only half of a regular meal is provided during the daytime. The stench in the small cell is so bad that it is difficult to breathe.
