(Minghui.org) A 62-year-old employee of Wood Storage Field of the Forestry Bureau of Hebei City, Heilongjiang Province, Ms. Song Guiping, gained back her health after practicing Falun Gong. She and her husband, Qiao Zhenbin, were arrested multiple times by CCP officials for their belief. Not long ago she was detained and persecuted in a Yichun brainwashing center. Below is an account of her experience.

Health Restored from Practicing Falun Dafa

Ms. Song Guiping had Tuberculosis since she was a child. She started to cough blood at the age of 13. The disease got worse at 19. She had been taking medicine to treat Tuberculosis, and the side effects of the medicine caused her kidneys, stomach, liver and heart to not function well. Whenever she took an antibiotic shot, she would shiver. Her tuberculosis did not improve, it got worse. There were holes and large blisters on her lung lobes. In addition, she had Emphysema and Bronchiectasis, etc. Her organs would have piercing pain as if stabbed by a bunch of straw whenever she bent down. She could not work at all, whenever she was hospitalized, it would be for over half a year. Since she could not work, she had a very bitter life. She suffered all the time, and so was not happy. She argued and fought, and blamed her husband. Her husband could not stand it, so he beat her. They even went to the Divorce Court.

One day in 1997, Ms. Song Guiping started practicing Falun Dafa. She began doing the Falun Dafa exercises every day. Her health got better each day. In the past she needed to take two breaks to get up one flight of stairs, her heart sped up so much that her face would turn red. After practicing Falun Dafa her body felt as light as a bird. When riding a bicycle she felt as if someone were pushing her from behind. She became joyful and her relationship with her husband greatly improved. The whole family was happy, and her husband witnessed the wonder of Dafa with his own eyes and started to practice Falun Dafa as well.

Arrested Multiple Times

In 1999 Jiang Zemin ordered the Communist Party machinery to persecute Falun Gong widely. Two days before the New Year, Song Guiping, Ren Xiuqin, Wu Yuqing and Jia Qiumei (who later died of torture) traveled to Beijing to call for justice for Falun Gong. They were arrested by the police from Tiananmen Square Police Station. They were handcuffed and taken back to Hebei City by staff from their local police station. The police tortured them by forcing them them to bend over for extended periods of time. Two days later, Song Guiping and Ren Xiuqin were detained in a freezing cold room without heating for over 20 days.

Associate Director of Hebei City Police Department Pu Yingjie forced Song Guiping and others to bend over for two hours with both hands touching the ground for 40 minutes. Pu Yingjie stood there watching for the entire time. This time Song Guiping was detained for over three months before she was released.

Right before January 1, 2001, Song Guiping and her husband Qiao Zhenbin were both arrested and detained in the detention center. Qiao Zhenbin was a driver in Hebei City Court, and was fired. Hebei City 610 Officer Chen Hongbin and others persecuted good people. Song Guiping, Jia Qiumei and her sister Jia Yongmei were handcuffed onto the heating pipes for six days and nights. Their hands were chained onto the upper heating pipes, while their feet were chained onto the lower pipes. They had four days of hunger strike. Then they were subjected to beatings for over 20 days, then tortured with other methods. For example, their bodies were forced to bend 90 degrees, then the both arms were stretched up from the back. One would begin sweating, and develop sore legs and a headache within five minutes. It was so painful that it's even worse than death.

Police Cao Gang from the Police Department enjoyed beating people with wooden batons no matter their age. He also used one of the prisoners in the detention center to beat and curse Falun Gong practitioners.

Song Guiping was tortured with handcuffs and foot chains. After they took the handcuffs off her, they put foot shackles on her for 65 days. She became thin and coughed blood for half a month. In April she was sent to a forced labor camp, but was not admitted. Director of the detention center Geng Chengtao bribed the labor camp doctor to fake her medical record. A police officer from the detention center Gao Baozi (nick name) came back and said, “They would not take her, but Mr. Geng gave the doctor 150 yuan to get her admitted.”

In January 2007, Song Guiping was again detained in the detention center for over 20 days. She vomited blood, but only got to drink thin soup for two meals a day. The soup was just water and three to five pieces of vegetable leaves. This time the responsible party was an officer surnamed Li from the 610 Office.

On June 30 2012, Song Guiping and her husband were arrested by Wang Zhihai, the current head of 610 Office of Hebei City, as well as seven or eight people from the Police Department. They also took the computer, 200 yuan cash and their personal belongings. They were detained in Hebei Detention Center for 22 days. They were forced to sit from 8am till 11am, and then 1pm till 4pm. In addition they were threatened by a police guard Ma (female). She had been a jail doctor, and had extorted money from Falun Gong practitioners.

Song Guiping was later detained in a Yichun Brainwashing center and forced to write the three statements renouncing her belief. Her family had to bail her out. One person who was participating in persecuting Falun Gong practitioners in Yichun is called Du Guijie, who was a nurse from Hegang Hospital. The general head of Yichun Brainwashing class is called Gu Songhai. It has been heard that he was sent from the province level.
