An Undergraduate Student of Harbin Industrial University in Heilongjiang Province is Tortured to Death at the Harbin Prison
(Clearwisdom.net) According to reliable sources, an undergraduate student of Harbin Industrial University whose name and age are unknown, was tortured to death on the morning of April 5, 2004. This student practitioner was illegally sentenced and put in Brigade Two of Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province. Because he refused to write statements denouncing Falun Gong, he was put in the confinement cell. The police ordered four criminals to torture him. They did not give him any food to eat, nor did they allow him to put any clothes on. In order to cover up their crimes, the police carried his corpse to the prison hospital pretending they were giving him emergency treatment. His body was covered with wounds and there was no trace of food in his stomach.

Case 1, Xinjiang Engineering Institute (now part of Xinjiang University) Lecturer, Ms. Li Xianghong, is Abused in a Mental Hospital
Xinjiang Engineering Institute lecturer, Ms. Li Xianghong, went to Beijing to appeal after July 20, 1999, and was abducted and taken to the Fourth Peoples' Hospital (a Mental Hospital) located in Wulumuqi City, by authorities from the Xinjiang "610 Office"(1) to receive mandatory "mental treatment." She was forced to receive various drugs without her consent and underwent psychological abuse for persisting in her belief in Falun Dafa. She was confined within a group of patients who had diagnosed mental illness. Due to the abuse she received, she could not speak normally, and was frequently abused and insulted by some male mental patients. Her situation, totally ignored by the hospital staff, was later witnessed by visiting Falun Dafa practitioners in August and September of 1999. Later, the hospital learned that the visitors were also Falun Dafa practitioners and refused their request for a second visit, out of fear of exposing their criminal treatment of Ms. Li.
