Ms. Sun Aimei Dies in Forced Labor Camp, Family Sees Only Her Ashes
Ms. Sun Aimei, around 60 years old, lived in Xinhua Village, Zhucheng City, Shandong Province. On March 25, 2008, the police arrested her while she was clarifying the truth about Falun Gong and took her to the Wangcun Women's Forced Labor Camp on March 28, 2008.
At the end of 2008, the camp administration called and told her family to bring 5,000 yuan and visit her. Upon arriving, her family heard that she had suffered a severe case of cerebral thrombus and had undergone open-skull surgery. Her family handed over the 5,000 yuan, but they were not allowed to see her. On February 1, 2009, her family was notified to return to the labor camp again, but this time they were given the urn with her ashes.
