Dorm Room of Punishment: Where Disobedient Workers Face Torture and Humiliation
A shocking exposé has revealed the horrors faced by a former worker at a scam compound in Myanmar, who was held captive for 18 days in a dorm room designed to break the spirit of disobedient workers.
The Room of Punishment
Located in a rural area of Myanmar, this dorm room was reserved for punishing those who refused to comply with the gang’s demands. Mr. Lu, the former worker, was subjected to physical torture, psychological manipulation, and humiliation.
Conditions
- Handcuffed to a bunk bed
- Released only for meals and bathroom breaks
- A guard watched him at all times
- Electronic devices were taken away
Methods of Torture
Mr. Lu’s captors used brutal methods to extract compliance. He was:
- Slapped, punched, and beaten with a hollow PVC pipe
- Subjected to electric shocks using a stun gun baton
- Made to watch his ransom video being made, which was sent to his parents in China
The Ransom Video
The 12-minute clip shows Mr. Lu being subjected to electric shocks while writhing on the floor in agony. His screams can be heard as he begs for mercy.
Rescue and Aftermath
Mr. Lu’s parents were devastated by the video and reported the kidnapping to the police. They also sought help from Chinese embassies and business associations, but it was a local man known only as “Dragon” who ultimately helped secure Mr. Lu’s release.
- Dragon advised Mr. Lu’s parents to stall and appear cooperative with the gang’s demands
- He used his connections with local authorities to orchestrate a rescue operation
- On January 23, a well-connected businessman accompanied by a general and dozens of armed soldiers from the Border Guard Forces arrived at the compound and demanded that Xi Ge, the leader of the scam group, hand over Mr. Lu
Conclusion
The case highlights the brutal tactics used by scam groups to maintain control over their victims and the importance of international cooperation in combating these criminal organizations.
