Dafa Practitioner Tan Haiyan from Panzhihua City, Sichuan Province Suffers Brutal Abuse

Jan. 24, 2007

(Clearwisdom.net) On July 20, 2006, during the lunch hour, Dafa practitioner Tan Haiyan, who was held in the No. 9 prison division of the Panzhihua Detention Center, shouted three times: "Falun Dafa is good!" Guard Zeng Xiaomin yelled at the inmates who resided with Tan: "Why didn’t you cover her mouth?"

Guard Zeng Xiaomin used the "implication method" to punish everyone, including an inmate who has heart disease, by forcing them to stand from noon till three in the afternoon. Guard Zeng Xiaomin instigated each inmate to beat Tan Haiyan in turn, and whoever refused to do so would be punished by her. She also forced inmates to cover Tan Haiyan’s mouth with a dirty mop. Some inmates tore Tan’s sheet into long narrow strips and tied Tan’s hands behind her back.

After two days of continuous torture, Tan Haiyan’s legs were swollen from the kicking and she was covered with bruises. She suffered similar brutal abuse in April of 2006.

Mrs. Tan Haiyan is 44 years old; she was a worker from the Zhu Mine of the Panzhihua Steel Corporation in Sichuan. She was arrested on August 25, 2000 while clarifying the truth and sending out truth-clarifying material. She was held in the No. 3 Public Security Bureau and was interrogated all night; the guards brutally tortured her, deprived her of sleep and hung her up with cuffs to an iron rail. She was sent to Wanyaoshu Detention Center the next day and held there for 45 days before being transferred to the Zizhong Women's Forced Labor Camp in Sichuan. She suffered all sorts of brutal torture: electric shocks to all parts of the body, being forced to stand for long periods of time, deprived of warm clothes in the winter, forced to stand under the baking sun in the summer, deprived of water, deprived of the right to go to the bathroom or take a shower, forced to take or accept injections of unidentified drugs, the "Big Hang Up", etc.

On April 9, 2006, Ms. Tan Haiyan was at home. Police from the Public Security Bureau in Panzhihua City Security Department of Zhu Mine, Panzhihua Steel Corporation and a policeman named Jia Chongwen from Majiawan Police Station attempted to raid her home. She refused to open the door. The police used a crowbar to attempt to pry open the door and in the meantime went to find her husband and threatened him with a gun to open the door. When her husband came, the key no longer worked as the lock had already been damaged. After the police pried open the door, they raided the house, stole most of her personal belongings, illegally arrested Ms. Tan Haiyan, and took her to the Panzhihua Detention Center.

Ms. Tan Haiyan was sentenced to six years in the labor camp and held in Chuanxi Female Prison in Longquanyi, Chengdu City.
