(Clearwisdom.net) On April 24, 2002, Mr. He Jiang was arrested by Meng Qingqi and Du Yongshan from the Mishan City Police Department. He was sentenced to 11 years in prison and detained at Jianzishan Prison in Mudanjiang City for 9 years and 8 months, during which time he was tortured several ways, including with electric shocks, and being hung from a rope by his wrists. He was released on December 19, 2011. Below is a summary of the suffering he endured.

Mr. He started practicing Falun Gong in 1996. On the night of April 24, 2002, Meng Qingqi, head of the Mishan City Police Department's politics and security group, along with various other officers from the Third Police Station, broke into Mr. He's home and arrested him while he was in bed.

Mr. He was interrogated while being held by the politics and security group back at Mishan City Police Department. Liu Qin, the political instructor there, ordered police officers Gao Deli and Wang to handcuff Mr. He's hands behind his back. At dawn, the interrogating officers summoned another police officer from the criminal team to slap him multiple times. Then Li Gang and the other officer cuffed him tightly, eventually causing him to perspire profusely from the severe pain. Two days later, police officer Li Gang, along with Du Yongshan, cuffed him from behind again and force-fed him with mustard oil, pouring the liquid down his mouth and nostrils, which caused him great pain.

After the interrogation, Mr. He was detained at the Mishan City Detention Center. During the detention, guard Wang Hongbing forced him to kneel down for extended periods of time.

In December 2002, the Mishan City Court put practitioners He Jiang and Yang Hailing on trial, and sentenced Mr. He to 11 years in prison. Mr. He said that he refused to recognize the illegal and unjust sentence, and was then punished by court officer Fan Sixin, who kicked him with his leather boots to the point where he was bleeding. Another practitioner, Yang Hailing, was also kicked by presiding judge Li Xin. The court officer then cuffed both practitioners and took them away. Although they appealed the sentence with Jixi City Intermediate Court, they did not receive a response from the court. On March 19, 2003, they were taken to Hadagang Prison in Jidong City.

Mr. He was transferred to Jianzishan Prison in Mudanjiang City on April 7, 2003, and placed with the strict discipline group, then the No. 14 Division, the No. 10 Division, and the No. 13 Division. He was tortured the entire time he was detained there. In the strict discipline group, he was beaten several times and forced to painfully kneel for extremely long periods of time by inmate Lan Haitao.

Mr. He was beaten by three inmates in the No. 14 Division at the orders of captain Wu Jidong, for refusing to acknowledge his sentence and refusing to do slave labor. He was then locked up in solitary for 48 days. Prior to this, practitioner Yu Junxiu was locked in solitary for over 60 days and died a few days after he was moved.

In the first few days of his detention in the No. 13 Division, Mr. He was beaten by Kang, the politics instructor, who also instigated inmate Shen Jiajin to beat him. Guard Liu Pengcheng of the No. 13 Division once led two inmates to beat Mr. He, tie him up with rope, then administer electric shocks to his joints, which caused him to be unable to walk for two weeks.

On another occasion, an inmate kicked Mr. He hard in the chest, causing him pain whenever he breathed. In 2007, since Mr. He could not finish his daily quota of slave labor, guard Wang Xuejiang savagely beat him as punishment. Captain Wang and Zhu Kun also instigated inmate Huang Liancheng to beat him.

On July 1, 2009, captain Huang Chengwei and politics instructor Zhao Yuchun tried to coerce Mr. He into signing a document by beating him and administering electric shocks. They shocked his anus and other sensitive areas of the body. Zhao Yuchun stomped on him. Huang Chengwei ordered inmate Piao to tie him up with rope. The torture caused Mr. He immense pain and he gave in and signed the document against his will.

Mr. He was released with a shortened term on December 19, 2011.
