Wang Huaiying 02.01.2001
WANG Huaiying was from Wangtang Administrative Village, Mudan District's Beicheng Office, Heze City, Shandong Province. On January 26, 2001, Wang Huaiying went to Beijing to appeal the persecution of Falun Gong. He was arrested at a checking station on Yong'an Road, Nanyang City by the City's Police Department.
The officers from the Nanyang Police Department took turns torturing and abusing practitioners. They used a cruel torture method called "steelyard hanging" on those practitioners who had been on a hunger strike for ten days. "Steelyard hanging" is to hang a person up by cuffing one of their hands, and at the same time tying the other hand with a belt and forcefully pulling the hand far to the side, thus the person's body forms the shape of a hanging steelyard scale. This is an extremely cruel torture, and almost everyone hung up in this manner would looses consciousness.
On February 1, 2001, 58-year-old Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. WANG Huaiying was hung up for between three or four hours, and died as a result. All the Falun Dafa practitioners from Heibei, Shandong and Henan, who were illegally detained there as well as all the other inmates detained there witnessed it.
An autopsy was carried out after WANG Huaiying was tortured to death. When WANG's family members went to the Nanyang Police Department, WANG's body was already cremated. The Police Department even ordered WANG's family member to pay an autopsy fee of 4000 yuan, but they was refused. Judging from the photos of the autopsy, WANG suffered from multiple wounds on his wrists, ribs and back from the torture and beating. There was also extravasated blood throughout his tissues.
