Wei Shujiang 08.29.2001
WEI died of injuries of torture on August 29, 2001.
On June 26, 2000, WEI and his family were arrested while appealing in Tianamen Square. Three days later, WEI and his son were abducted and thrown into Daoli Jailhouse in Harbin City. His wife was detained at Daoli Duck Animal Enclosure Detention Center.
WEI was made to do hard labor and was tortured afterwards. WEI was ordered by prison guards and inmates to maintain a painful posture without moving or making sound for many consecutive hours. WEI suffered from extreme pain in the stomach and inability to excrete waste when his allotted time in the washroom was shortened. The Jailhouse extorted 4000 Yuan from WEI’s family in exchange for WEI’s release.
After WEI’s release, he was bedridden at home. His wife and son were both arrested from home, and without anyone to care for him, WEI died on August 29, 2001.
