Ms. Zhang Shujun Dies as Result of Torture in Jiangxi Province
(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Zhang Shujun, 47, lived in
Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province. After the persecution of Falun Dafa began on
July 20, 1999, she went to Beijing to appeal to the government several times.
Because she tried to clarify the truth, she was arrested and
sentenced to three years in prison. Ms. Zhang was arrested again in March 2006 and charged with producing truth
clarifying materials. The Qingyunpu District Court in Nanchang City sentenced
her to ten years in prison. She was imprisoned at the Jiangxi Province Women's
Prison located in Xinjian County, Nanchang City. She endured numerous brutal
tortures while she was incarcerated, and her friends and family were not allowed
to visit her. On January 4, 2008, Ms. Zhang was paralyzed and in critical condition. Guards
called her family and instructed them to pick her up from the prison hospital
- Changzheng Hospital. She was thus "bailed out for medical
treatment" on the verge of death. Only 16 days later, Ms. Zhang died in her
home at around 3 a.m. on January 20, 2008. Jiangxi Province Women's Prison: 86-791-3711686 |
