(Minghui.org) Police officers from the special group in the 11th Ward of Shandong Province Prison cruelly persecuted Falun Gong practitioners Mr. Zhang and Mr. Lu. Mr. Zhang was “strictly monitored,” and Mr. Lu has been suffering from poor health.
The “special group” consists of the most vicious inmates in Shandong Province Prison. The purpose is to persecute detained Falun Gong practitioners.
Mr. Zhang Hongjin is a Falun Gong practitioner from Songgezhuang Village, Jiangtuan Town, Laiyang City, Shandong Province. He is a single, honest man in his fifties, who lives with his blind parents. After he began practicing Falun Dafa, he became even kinder to people and took good care of his elderly parents.

Mr. Zhang was arrested by police officers from the Tuanwang Town Police Station on January 23, 2013. He was sentenced to four years in prison in September 2013, and is detained in the 11th Ward of Shandong Province Prison.
Mr. Zhang follows the principles of “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.” He shouted “Falun Dafa Is Good” while being tortured, and was then beaten by Yang Hongyou, Wu Qintao, and Wang Youtao from the 11th Prison ward. When he shouted for help, they used a dirty cloth to cover his mouth. He has since been “strictly monitored.”
Falun Gong practitioner Lu Fentian from Yishui County in Shandong Province was sentenced to ten years in prison. On March 12, 2013, Mr. Lu was detained on the fifth floor control room in the 11th Ward of Shandong Province Prison. Instructed by Li Wei, Li Tianmin brutally tortured Mr. Lu, despite his extremely poor health. His physical exam from the prison hospital showed he was suffering from kidney stones, liver damage, and chronic conditions such as gallbladder inflammation. Nonetheless, Li kept beating and slapping Mr. Lu, and didn't allow him to sleep.
Police officers from the special group in the 11th Ward of Shandong Province Prison recently cruelly persecuted Falun Gong practitioners Mr. Zhang and Mr. Lu. Mr. Zhang was “strictly monitored.” Mr. Lu has been suffering from severe coronary heart disease and angina symptoms for more than four months.
For a long time, Li Wei, police head of the prison ward, instructed Yang Hongyou and other hooligans to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. They used various means to torture Falun Gong practitioners who refused to be “transformed.” They deprived them of sleep, made them squat and stand for long periods of time, swore at them, threatened them, and brutally beat them. Many Falun Gong practitioners have suffered tremendous physical and mental pain from their vicious cruelty.
Among them, Yang Hongyou from the Northeast, is a social bully. He was once investigated because Falun Gong practitioners reported his crime to the prison education department. Li Wei had to replace him, but he used him again soon after, and even appointed him as the group leader. Yang then worked even harder for Li Wei, acting as an assassin, beating, and committing numerous crimes against Falun Gong practitioners.
