Wu Rongrong recounts police threats during interrogation in detention: “before they started taking notes and video recording, they would howl at me: ‘we’ll tie you up, throw you in a cell with men, and let them gang rape you; also, your son is only four, there’ll be trouble ahead with school and work.’
武嵘嵘讲述被拘留审讯期间警察对她的威胁:“他们给我做笔录和同步录音录像开始之前,会给我很大的威胁,比如他们向我吼‘把你捆绑后扔到男号子里去,让他们轮奸你’,还有比如‘你儿子才四岁吧,以后上学和工作都会麻烦了!’……”
