Recent Persecution Cases in Hebei Province Women's Forced Labor Camp
By a Clearwisdom correspondent from Hebei Province, China
(Clearwisdom.net) The Hebei Province Women’s Forced Labor
Camp, built in November 2007, is located in the southwestern region
of Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province. Looking towards the main
entrance, there is a large, locked iron gate behind the
administration building. The following are some persecution cases
committed recently by the guards in this forced labor camp against
Falun Gong practitioners.
Ms. Wang Liling, from Xianghe, Langfang City, was handcuffed
continuously and detained in solitary confinement from January 1-8,
2012. Guard Zang Zhiying severely beat Ms. Li Shixia in mid-December
2011. He taped Ms. Li’s nose and mouth shut, and beat her until she
fainted. After she regained consciousness, Zang re-taped her mouth
and nose again and continued beating her. This brutal torture was
repeated several times. Ms. Zhang Guiru and Ms. Li Liying were subjected to brutal
beatings on the afternoon of January 5, 2012, merely because they
didn’t match the guards’ marching rhythm steps. Later that day,
guards An Xiaopeng and Wang Xiaoli shocked Ms. Li Liying with
electric batons because she refused to do heavy labor. Guard Gu Hongye violently beat Ms. Dang Xiaolan on the afternoon
of January 5, 2012, because she resisted being dragged to the
solitary confinement cell. During the beating, everyone at the
labor camp heard her shouting, “The guards are torturing me.” When
female guard Fan Miao passed by, she joined in and participated in
the beating. Ms. Peng Xia was subjected to standing without moving as a form
of torture by guard Gu Hongye on the evening of January 5, 2012.
She was forced to stand still from 7:30 p.m. until 3:30 a.m.. Guards in the Hebei Province Women’s Forced Labor Camp also
force practitioners to do slave labor for the labor camp's
financial gain. They collude with the Hebei Yikang Knitting and
Cotton Co., LTD, and force practitioners to make towels under
inhumane conditions. One of the procedures is to iron the four
corners of towels, which produces toxic smoke from the chemical
substances in the fabric. However, the guards nonetheless force
practitioners to work in the poisonous environment. Posting date: 3/22/2012
