Ms. Liu Qianqian, 33, Tortured to Death at the Heilongjiang Province Women's Prison (Photo)
(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Liu Qianqian was 33
years old. She was arrested in 2002 and secretly sentenced to three years in
prison. She had been locked up in the Heilongjiang Province Women's Prison, and
was forced to go through brainwashing sessions and do heavy labor all day long.
On June 19, 2005, Ms. Liu Qianqian was released home, but was as thin as a
skeleton. Her veins could be clearly seen popping out, and her esophagus and
stomach were festering due to infections. She died on August 6, 2005. (See
http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2005/9/28/65373.html) Ms. Liu Qianqian (used name Liu of Dongmei) lived in Shangzhi Town, Shangzhi
City, Heilongjiang Province. She started practicing Falun Gong in 1996. After
July 20, 1999, Jiang Zemin's regime started persecuting Falun Gong. In order to
speak out for Falun Dafa, she went to Beijing to appeal and was arrested. She
was detained three times in the Shangzhi City Detention Center. Ms. Liu was
brutally beaten during periods of detention. The City Police Department's
Political and Security Office Head Yu Jinfang (male) shouted, "I will for
sure make your family go bankrupt from fines!" Later, Ms. Liu was sentenced to one year of forced labor and tortured in
Wanjia Labor Camp in Harbin City. She went through cruel brainwashing and had
her hair pulled out by prison guards due to refusing to accept the brainwashing.
She was handcuffed for more than twenty days, and was hung up by rope tied
around her wrists all day. She grew scabs all over her body and could not sleep
since it was very itchy. She was skin and bones when she was released one year
later. During 2002, after Ms. Liu Qianqian was released, she was arrested again in
May because she was found passing out truth clarifying materials. She was then
detained for 9 months in Shangzhi City First and Second Detention Centers. She
was soon sentenced to three years in the Heilongjiang Province Women Prison in
Harbin City. The lawless officials did not allow her family to visit her during
these three years. Prison guards beat and cursed practitioners at will, stripped
off practitioners' clothes in the freezing winter when the temperature was as
low as 4oF below zero, and forced practitioners stay out in the snow for 7
days. Due to being detained in the dark and humid cells, Ms. Liu Qianqian
contracted tuberculosis and was sent to the sick prisoners' cell. No one knows
what kind of drugs they injected her with, but it made her leg turn purple, and
she could no longer walk. It was reported that Ms. Liu accepted the brainwashing
"under no pressure." Prison guards used five prisoners to watch each Falun Dafa practitioner, and
had those prisoners "help and educate" the practitioners. The
"education" was consisted of beatings. Practitioners could only eat
one small piece of corn bread and a small bowl of vegetable soup per day. They
are not able to feel full, but must do heavy labor every day. Falun Dafa
practitioner Ms. Liao Xiaolu refused to do heavy labor, and was cursed and
brutally beaten by prison guards. On May 1, 2005, Ms. Liu Qianqian's family heard that she was very sick and
requested to see her. They went through numerous difficulties and finally saw
that she was as thin as a skeleton. Her family strongly requested to have her
bailed out on medical parole, but was refused. Her parents picked her up on June
19, 2005, when her term ended. She used to weigh 135 pounds, but only had 55
pounds left at that point. Her family sent her to the Heishan County
Tuberculosis Hospital to get treatment. The doctors said that there wasn't any
cure for her. Ms. Liu Qianqian died on August 6, 2005. Responsible Units and Persons: Shangzhi City (Heilongjiang Province) Police Department Head Sun Yanbin
