Torture Death of Dafa Practitioner Ms. Liu Senle in the Xinjin Brainwashing Center in the Xindu District, Chengdu City

June 22, 2003

(Clearwisdom.net) June 20th report: Dafa practitioner Liu Senle was kidnapped by thugs from Xindu District "610 Office"* and sent to the Xinjin Brainwashing Center. She was tortured until she was on the verge of death, and passed away three days after returning home. The following are the details.

Dafa practitioner Liu Senle, female, 53 years old, lived in Group One of Guilin Village, Xindu District, Chengdu City. On April 5, 2003, when Liu Senle was taking a walk in Xinguihu Park along with several friends, people from the Xindu District Police Department and the "610 Office" unlawfully arrested her, together with her five companions. Xindu District Police Department and "610 Office" authorities claimed that the practitioners were holding an "illegal gathering." Then they tried to force them to give up Dafa practice. Because they refused to do so, Liu Senle was detained for 15 days. After her term expired in the afternoon of April 22, "610 Office" personnel sent her to the Xinjin Brainwashing Center, where she was brutally beaten and tortured. When seeing that Liu was on verge of death, the thugs extorted 1,000 Yuan from her family before they released her. On May 23, the wife of a local Party secretary and two other people picked her up. She was barefoot, her whole body ached and her head was swollen. Her chest was black and blue, and her stomach was swollen. Her mouth foamed, and she had to hold her stomach with her hands all day long due to the pain. Three days after she returned home, on the morning of May 26th, she passed away.

Afterwards, the thugs threatened her family and tried to bribe them to escape responsibility. They blocked the news, claiming Liu Senle committed suicide and later asked the doctor to issue the autopsy report to state "death from cerebral hemorrhage."
