The following is the brutal persecution I suffered while in Shanghai First
Detention Center during July 2000. While meditating in Tiananmen Square, I was
arrested by police and taken to Beijing Xicheng District Detention Center. A few
days later, I was transferred to the Shanghai government's liaison office in
Beijing. Then, I was detained for one month at the Shanghai Police Department
and jailed at the Shanghai First Detention Center.
I resisted the illegal persecution by not signing my name on the
repentance statement. Additionally, I went on hunger strike to
protest the persecution at Shanghai First Detention Center. The lead guard in
charge of my floor tried to persuade me to eat. When I refused to cooperate, he
incited prisoners to brutally torment me into complying with his wishes. The
group of inmates who were led by the guard slapped my face and beat my chest
with their fists. A few inmates surrounded me and kicked me.
They forced my head into the toilet; and, after three times of being held
under, my will was broken and I gave up my hunger strike. Now, I really have
experienced how brutal this persecution is and why this persecution has cast
such a huge shadow of terror. It has taken months for me to gradually eliminate
the terror I have experienced.
