Chinese Way of Torture and the Cruel and Unusual punishments for Dissidents

, Falun Gong, Tibetans, Uyghurs.  The system of torture was rich in Chinese history, many classic forms of punishments ended with the foundation of the Republic in 1912 but hints remain to the present day.

 China still lacks an independent judiciary and so questioning a criminal charge continues to be seen as challenging the government that set the laws - making the culprit an enemy of the state. There are allegations that members of Falun Gong sect ➚ including Tang Yongjie and Gao Rongrong were tortured in a similar fashion to the ling chi. 

The centuries of threat of brutal punishment can still be seen have an impact on everyday life, Tibetans also suffer simmilar torture along with the Ethnic Uyghurs.  Chinese people are reticent about committing themselves to a view or revealing their true opinion as in former years it could have had tragic repercussions.

China retains the death penalty (by lethal injection or gunshot). Although the number executed is a state secret, organizations estimate that thousands are executed each year, more than the rest of the world put together.

 The crimes with this punishment can be almost anything judged to be subversive from computer hacking to arson as well as rape and embezzlement: Tibetans are tortured just for having Photos of His Holiness the dalailama. Support by reading more and sharing.
