Tortured to Death at Masanjia Labor Camp: Dafa Practitioner Ms. Zhang Guizhi from Liaoning Province
(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Zhang Guizhi, a 47 year-old resident of Liujiawopu Village, Xinmin Town,
Taihe District, Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province was kidnapped and sent to the
Jinzhou City First Detention Center in August 2001 by the Xiaolingzi Airport
Police Station for practicing Falun Dafa. Two months later, she was illegally
sentenced to 2 years of forced labor education and transferred to Masanjia Labor
Camp where she was detained in Group 1, Team 2 of Division 2. On April 12, 2003,
her family members received a notice jointly issued by the labor camp, local
police station and village committee, saying that Zhang Guizhi "is receiving
emergency treatment because she's critically ill." When her family rushed to
Masanjia, they found she had already died and her body placed in the mortuary. When Zhang Guizhi's family asked to learn the cause of her death, the camp
director did not respond. The team leader forbade them to take pictures of her
body. Her family noticed wounds on her body and bloodstains in her nose and
mouth. There were purple speckles on her body. When asked why her body looked
black and blue, the police claimed that a fall while taking a shower triggered
her heart problem, which led to her death. However, April 12th was
not a shower day (in the camp, practitioners can only take showers on specified
days). Moreover, heart problems wouldn't lead to bleeding in both mouth and
nose. It is obvious that she had been tortured to death.
