Some Details Surrounding the Death of Practitioner Ms. Zou Guirong in the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp

(Clearwisdom.net) Zou Guirong, a woman in her thirties, used to live in Fushun City. She was arrested and taken to the Masanjia forced labor camp because she went to Beijing to appeal to the government in January 2000. Warden Qiu Ping brutally tortured her because she was very steadfast in Dafa, and refused give up the practice. The police often shocked her with several electric batons simultaneously. In order to get her to write the "Three Statements," they locked her inside the guardroom so they could beat her up. [Practitioners are coerced under brainwashing and torture to write these as proof that they have given up their belief. Created by the "610 Office," the three statements consist of a letter of repentance, a guarantee to never again practice Falun Gong, and a list of names and addresses of all family members, friends and acquaintances who are practitioners.]. They stabbed her with steel needles and punished her further by making her maintain a painful squatting position for an extended period of time. They beat her day and night depriving her of sleep. There was one time that they punished her by forcing her to squat for five days and nights.
