Practitioner Li Aiyun Died in 2001 from the Effects of Torture in Beijing's Xin'an Labor Camp
By a Falun Gong practitioner in China
(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Li Aiyun, 38, was a Falun Gong practitioner from
Hanhaozhuang Village, Zhangshangying Township in Yanqing County, Beijing. In
October 2000, she was watching a Falun Gong video-tape at home. Someone reported
this to the police and she was arrested and sentenced to one year of forced
labor. She was detained in the Xin'an Labor Camp in Beijing's Daxing District
where she was tortured severely. She later developed symptoms of TB and was sent
to a TB hospital. In January 2001, she was released on medical parole. On
October 14, 2002 she passed away. The Xin'an Labor Camp, now called Beijing Women's Labor Camp, has been a
place where Dafa practitioners are severely persecuted. From July 2000 to July
2001, more than 1,000 practitioners were detained there. The guards forced
practitioners to write a "guarantee letter" by cruelly torturing them.
One practitioner who refused to write the letter was deprived of sleep for one
month. They used many barbaric tortures such as electric shocking with multiple
batons and all kinds of other physical punishment. Ms. Guo Xuelian, an 18-year-old woman from Shandong Province, was detained
there for several months, from the end of 2000 to early 2001. After repeated
physical assaults, undisclosed medication and other extreme physical and mental
torture, she became mentally traumatized. Other practitioners also lost their lives in police custody in Yangqing
County. After the 47- year-old Ms. Cui Fuer appealed for Falun Gong, the Yanqing
County police fiendishly beat her and sent her to forced labor. Later she
returned home so injured that she was confined to bed for many days. On August
3, 2003, she passed away. Mr. Wu Simin, a 63-year-old practitioner, went to Beijing to appeal for Falun
Gong on December 25, 2000. He was arrested and sent to a detention center in
Yanqing where he was brutally beaten. He died on January 12, 2001. Telephone numbers of the responsible persons: Tao Jinliang, "610 Office" Head in Zhangshanying, Yanqing County:
