Description:
In December 2000, Ms. Liu Xiaolian went to Beijing to appeal to the government to stop persecuting Falun Gong. The police from the Tiananmen Square Police Station arrested her at Tiananmen Square, and kicked her very hard in the groin. Three days later, she was taken to the Haicheng City Police Station in Liaoning Province, where she was tortured day and night. She was only allowed to eat a little food and could only wear thin clothing even in the very cold winter air.

On January 17, 2001, Ms. Liu was sent to the Second Detention Center in Chibi City, where authorities ordered inmate, Ye Jun, to beat her head, chest, abdomen, and other areas of her body. Her nose was smashed in during the beating. After beating her, Ye forced her to kneel down for over four hours. After that week of torture, Ms. Liu was then transferred to the First Detention Center of Chibi City.

On June 28, 2002, the labor camp authorities, Cai Jinping, Deng Dingsheng, Qian Yulan, Song Yuzhen shackled and dragged Ms. Liu out of her cell, and took her to a hospital, where they ordered the doctor to inject her with an unknown drug. The unknown drug began to take effect that night. Her ears, eyes, nose and mouth began to bleed. Her eardrums hurt very badly. She threw up several times, and had loose bowels. There was blood in her stool at first, then hard bloody lumps smelling like raw fish five days later. She had extreme pain when using the restroom. She lost consciousness many times. Since the authorities were afraid that Ms. Liu would die at the detention center, they decided to release her to her family on the condition that her family pay them 3000 Yuan [500 Yuan is the average monthly income for an urban worker in China], and sign a statement that they would not sue the detention center if Ms. Liu died. On August 28, 2002, they released her.

After several weeks, Ms. Liu exposed the torture she suffered to the media, so they arrested her again. On October 17, 2002, she was sent back to the First Detention Center. On December 6, 2002, Deng Dingsheng and 18 police officers and inmates started another round of torture on Ms. Liu. Deng Dingsheng ordered four inmates to hold Ms. Liu's four limbs down while Deng Dingsheng was holding her head. They pulled her body in five different directions simultaneously. Right away, her vagina was torn from the force. All her joints became dislocated with loud popping sounds. The rest took turns beating her with 55-pound shackles while she was being pulled apart. They beat her for almost the entire day. Ms. Liu suffered many broken bones and other severe injuries over the course of the day and fell unconscious due to the intense pain. Seeing that she had not died, Deng grasped her head and violently banged her neck down hard. Ms. Liu fainted again from the pain. Since she was still alive, Deng cuffed her with 55 pound shackles for one week, and denied her food, or water to drink, for two weeks.

On April 29, 2003, since Ms. Liu still refused to denounce Falun Gong, Deng and the others took turns torturing her. As a result, her four limbs, feet, hands, chest, and hips all suffered more broken bones. After seeing she was still alive, they stepped on her body, trampling her limbs. Many more bones were broken, large blocks of flesh were torn off, and broken bones jutted out through her flesh in numerous places. Finally they released her because she was on the verge of death.

On December 28, 2003, the local Chibi City police again arrested Ms. Liu. Her whereabouts remain unknown.

Because the prolonged torture, Ms. Liu's life is in grave danger. We are very concerned about Ms. Liu's life, and hereby request an urgent action by the United Nations to safeguard the life of Ms. Liu.
