Sister Repeatedly Arrested, Brother Tortured to Death

Dec. 21, 2014 |   By a Minghui correspondent from Xinjiang Autonomous Region, China

(Minghui.org) Ms. Ma Jumei, who is in her fifties, and from Changji City, Xinjiang, was arrested on December 9, 2014, at the nursing home she has managed since her release from detention in 2011. Ms. Ma has been repeatedly arrested and detained in the past because she is a Falun Gong practitioner.

Ms. Ma's younger brother, Mr. Ma Jujun, was tortured to death in the Urumqi City Mental Hospital in 2004. Ms. Ma was being held at the Xinjiang Women's Prison at the time, and was not allowed to attend her brother's funeral.

Ms. Ma's brother was an assistant for the Changji City Falun Dafa practice site. He was sent to Wujiaqu Forced Labor Camp in October 1999 for two years, where he was subjected to beatings, electric shocks, and other forms of abuse. He was tied to a bed for four months because he conducted a hunger strike to protest the torture. Mr. Ma was detained for eight months beyond his initial term, and taken to a brainwashing center twice after being released in May 2002. He was arrested again on March 4, 2004, and subjected to inhumane tortures at the Urumqi City Mental Hospital. He passed away on September 27, 2004, at the age of 41.
