1. [Yantai City, Shandong Province] Wang Dejiang Unable to Walk Due to Torture in Police Custody
Practitioner Mr. Wang Dejiang, an employee from the Yantai City Sea Fishing Company, 50 years old, used to live in the Happiness Residential Area, the Zhifu District. He decided to leave home to avoid persecution and arrest at home, and has been living in exile for over four years, only because he cultivates "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance."
On August 16, 2005, personnel from the Yantai City Police Department and from the Muping District 610 Office arrested Wang Dejiang while he was clarifying the truth of Falun Gong to people. He was beaten so badly that around August 24 he was sent to the City Yuhuangding Hospital. His left knee was black and blue and a large area on his right shoulder was blue. It is unknown whether these injuries were caused by electric shock or other excruciating torture means. Mr. Wang is now unable to walk. It is said one of his legs will be amputated. Wang Dejiang has already spent over 20,000 yuan for hospitalization.
Wang Dejiang is staging a hunger strike to protest the persecution. His family members have demanded his release; however, personnel from the police department and hospital have ignored them. The police officers did not dare to tell their names and telephone numbers when contacted by family members. They instructed personnel from the Sea Fishing Company, who are guarding Wang Dejiang, to prevent his family members from seeing him.
