Ms Jiang Liying was a practitioner from Changsha City, Hunan Province. She was tortured to the point of near death in Baimalong Women's Forced Labour Camp. After her release she was still continually monitored by the authorities. Ms. Jiang died in September 2002.
Ms. Jiang was in 50s, and an employee of the Hunan Institute of Non-ferrous Metal Design. She started practising Falun Gong in 1996. In 1999, Ms. Jiang went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong. She was then sentenced to two years in a forced labour camp. She was detained and persecuted in Baimalong Forced Labour Camp in Zhuzhou City.
At the labour camp, Ms. Jiang was brutally tortured. As a result, she experienced symptoms of severe heart disease and high blood pressure. In May 2000, she was conditionally released due to poor health. Right before October 1, 2001, Ms. Jiang was forced to leave home to escape from a round of mass arrests of Falun Gong practitioners. One day when Ms. Jiang was telling people about the goodness of Falun Dafa and explaining that practitioners are innocent people being wrongfully persecuted in a place far from her hometown, someone reported her to the police. Ms. Jiang was arrested again and sent to a labour camp.
Due to the intense and terrifying brainwashing at Baimalong Forced Labour Camp, Ms. Jiang's blood pressure was as high as 280. Her heart was in extremely poor condition, and she was dying. Labour camp officials were afraid she would die, so they sent Ms. Jiang back home on a conditional release and continued to monitor her closely. They also frequently harassed and threatened Ms. Jiang, causing tremendous damage to her body and mind. Ms. Jiang died in September 2002.
In June 2001, Baimalong Forced Labour Camp established an "Enforcement Team". They then sent Falun Dafa practitioners to the "Enforcement Team," batch by batch, for specialised torture. There were three practitioners in each batch. The guards in the Enforcement Team handcuffed practitioners behind their backs, hung them from high windows, and then beat and shocked them with electric batons. The guards also instigated inmates to viciously beat practitioners and forced them to listen to recordings or watch videos that slandered Dafa. They were also deprived of sleep and use of the toilet for prolonged periods of time. Once practitioners started to expose the persecution and tell people the truth about Falun Dafa, they were beaten and kicked. Once practitioners closed their eyes, the guards would spray irritating liquids into their eyes and use lighters to burn practitioners' eyebrows. The guards also stuffed dirty socks into practitioners' mouths so that they could not speak, and pricked practitioners' acupuncture points at will.
Chen Xingtao was illegally sent to Baimalong Forced Labour Camp on January 31, 2001. As a result of torture Chen Xingtao was paralysed in the lower body and died on May 27, 2002.
Cao Jianzhen, a practitioner in her 50s from Yuanjiang of Yiyang, once said, "Being "transformed" (1) is the same as death. I will not "transform" even if I have to die!" In about May 2001, in Baimalong Forced Labour Camp, several male police guards beat her and broke three ribs. Her stomach was penetrated as a result of the beating, and she died soon after returning home.
