(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Zhang Huizhu from Hudai Town, Wuxi City was arrested and taken to the Zhenjiang Women's Forced Labor Camp in April 2011.
Guards at the labor camp instigated other inmates to physically abuse and torture her. Two inmates dragged her while forcing her to run, and beat her at will. They deprived her of sleep, and often made her stand without moving until 2:00 a..m. the next day. In the summer, the perpetrators made Ms. Zhang stand under the scorching sun at noon. They attempted to force her into writing the “four statements,” (similar to the three statements) to renounce her belief. When she refused to comply, the inmates grasped her hands to force her to write, and they also stabbed the back of her hands with the tip of the pen. They also pinched her mouth forcefully, stabbed her mouth with the tip of the pen, and gagged her mouth with a towel. Due to the torture her mouth bled and her hands became covered with wounds.
The long-term physical abuse and torture have greatly devastated Ms. Zhang's physical and mental health. She has become increasingly weak and frail.
