Ms Liu Tongling, in Her Fifties, Was Persecuted to Death at Heilongjiang Women's Forced Labour Camp in 2003

Ms. Liu Tongling, Falun Dafa practitioner from Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province, was sent to Heilongjiang Women's Forced Labour Camp (the former Harbin City Drug Rehabilitation Centre) for practising Falun Gong in October 2003. In the forced labour camp she suffered various brutal tortures. In November 2003, wearing no trousers or socks, she was tortured to death on the metal chair in the basement.

Liu Tongling, 52 years old, was a worker at the Second Oil Recovery of Daqing City. She was sent to Heilongjiang Women's Forced Labour Camp for practising Falun Gong in October 2003. For more than 30 days of detention in the camp, Liu Tongling was brutally beaten, shocked and force-fed by the heartless staff.

In November, wearing no trousers or socks, Liu Tongling was tortured to death on the metal chair in the basement. Later the team leader Li Quanming ordered an inmate to take off her socks and put them on Liu Tongling. Then a guard ordered Liu Yan (a drug addict from Harbin City) and Wang Rongmei (a criminal from Quegang City) to put some clothes on Liu Tongling.

Liu Tongling was persecuted to death. Heilongjiang Women's Forced Labour Camp tried to forcibly "transform" her by brutal beating and freezing her unclothed body (in November and in the basement). This was the direct cause of Liu Tongling's death.
