1. [Liaoning Province] Mr. Zhang Hongguang's Condition is Serious as a Result of Persecution at the Xinsheng Farm
Mr. Zhang Guanghong has been sentenced to four years of forced labor at the Xinsheng Farm in Yingkou City, Liaoning Province. Nine inmates have been assigned to "transform" him. In order to force him to give up his belief in Falun Dafa, they have used torture methods such as the Tiger Bench (1), electric shocks applied by multiple electric batons, sleep deprivation, and other brutal tortures. After 96 hours of continuous abuse, Mr. Zhang's diabetes, which had been cured when he started practicing Falun Dafa, resurfaced. He has since been diagnosed with complications of diabetes. He has numbness in all four limbs, has not been able to walk steadily, and has had infections in his fingertips. Mr. Zhang has also become mentally confused and his life is in immediate danger.
