Torture Methods used in the Xishanping Labor Camp: Locking Prisoners into the "Leifeng Tower," Starvation and Physical Punishment
(Report on May 9 in Clearwisdom.net)
Locking Prisoners into "Leifeng Tower"
The so-called "Leifeng Tower" in Xishanping Labor Camp is a dark place of about two square meters (about 20 square feet) that includes two rooms with no sunlight, only ghastly darkness. A stone slab in one of the rooms constitutes a bed while the other room contains no furniture at all. Human excrement is visible everywhere, since there is no toilet. In addition, because rats and snakes have infested the place, rotting animal corpses give off an unbearable stench. Rumors had it that one woman imprisoned here could not bear this kind of torture, and committed suicide by hanging herself. Although getting "locked into Leifeng Tower" was considered terrifying punishment, the police in the "Rigorously Guarded Team" used it many times to torment kind-hearted and righteous Falun Gong practitioners.
