Practitioners Tortured with "Stretch Torture Chamber" at Weiningying Forced Labor Camp in Liaoning Province

(Clearwisdom.net) Since the persecution began on July 20, 1999, about 1,000 Falun Dafa practitioners have been detained in Weiningying Forced Labor Camp in Benxi City, Liaoning Province. This labor camp is one of the dark dens that has been praised by the Chinese Communist Party Justice Department as having the highest rate of "transformation" of practitioners. Practitioners persecuted there have been from inside and outside of Liaoning Province. Steadfast practitioners from different places inside Liaoning Province in particular were severely persecuted.

From 2005 to 2006, a special building was built to persecute practitioners, and thousands upon thousands of yuan went towards persecuting Falun Gong. Now about 18 to 19 practitioners are detained there and are monitored every day. The guards refuse to allow family members to meet with the steadfast practitioners. Heavy labor and starvation, plus torture, make it feel as though one day is one year.

At the very end of the room where criminal inmates are held, there is a small solitary cell called the "Stretch Torture Chamber," used to torture practitioners who have not been "transformed." One practitioner was stretched for over 100 days, and his face was swollen very large. When released, he was close to death and so was sent away. Another Shenyang practitioner surnamed Zhang (given name unknown) was stretched for 28 days. The chief of the management section, Meng Lixin, directed the persecution in person.

About 14 or 15 practitioners have been sent away from the labor camp. It has been claimed that they have been sent to the Shenyang Base, but no one really knows where they were sent.
