34-Year-Old Ms. Zhang Mingyi Died as a Result of Brutal Treatment in Zhejiang Women's Prison

Ms. Zhang Mingyi was from Jilin City, Jilin Province. She was formerly employed as a test analysis technician by the Jilin Chemical Factory. She used to suffer from all sorts of ailments, but after she began cultivating Falun Gong in 1995, she became a very healthy and open-minded person. Because the company was going out of business, she was laid off and went to Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province, to work. Seeing that the local people did not know the truth about Falun Gong, she informed people about the persecution and dispelled the state propaganda attacking the practice.

Later, people who did not know the truth reported her, and Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials made her suffer for more than two years in the Zhejiang Province Women's Prison. Her health deteriorated due to the long term brutal treatment in the prison. She was constantly feverish, and the prison doctor injected some unknown drug into her, causing her to become extremely weak and quickly lose weight. The prison administration didn't want to be held responsible for her death, so they released her early.

After returning home, Ms. Zhang had a fever all the time, and purple marks appeared on her body. The doctor diagnosed her with hemolytic anaemia, hepatitis B and C, and tests showed a shadow on her pancreas. She died on August 29th, 2007, at only 34 years old.
