Case Description:
Ms. Liu Jie, 43, was a resident of Qingshan Mountain, Baotou City of Inner Mongolia. In April 2001, because she firmly practiced Falun Gong, she was reported to the police. Ms. Liu was illegally sentenced to 13 months of forced labor. This resulted in Ms. Liu suffering a mental collapse due to the torture. After she was sent home, she was harassed by the local police many times and was under great pressure. She died on June 6, 2005.
