Dafa Practitioner Ms. Zhou Caixia from Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is Tortured to Death

Ms. Zhou Caixia was a Dafa practitioner from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and the Head of the Female Labour Division at the Main Labour Union in Chifeng City. She was abducted and tortured by the police several times. In October 2002 she was abducted again, and in December 2002 sentenced to 3 years in Tumuji Forced Labour Camp in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Ms. Zhou maintained her steadfast belief in Falun Dafa despite brutal beatings, shocking from electric batons, and many other forms of atrocious torture inflicted by Luo, Captain of the disciplinary guards, Ma, Na, and Yang in the Women's 2nd Squadron. Later Ms. Zhou was transferred to Hohhot City Women's Forced Labour Camp. She was released after going on a hunger strike for over 20 days. In August 2002, Ms. Zhou was abducted again to a detention centre, where she went on another hunger strike to protest her illegal imprisonment. It was only when she started to cough up blood, which indicated that she was in mortal danger, that she was released.

In January 2003, Ms. Zhou was abducted to Hongshan District Detention Centre in Chifeng City, where she went on a hunger strike to protest her illegal detention and persecution. In July 2003, Ms. Zhou was transferred to Baoanzhao Prison in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. A few days later she died from the injuries caused by the torture she had endured. The details about how Ms. Zhou was persecuted in 2003 are yet to be investigated.
