Wang Tiesong 12.04.2001
WANG was illegally sent to the Yenji Forced Labor Camp in October 2000, where he was tortured. He died as a result of his injuries on December 4, 2001.
Authorities in the Yanbian State Department as well as in the Public Security Department and the labor camp were afraid that the truth about WANG’s death and the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners would be exposed.
Consequently, after WANG had already died of torture, they retroactively falsified his medical record and sent him to the hospital. In the hospital, they kept him on a respirator for another eleven days until December 15.
According to an eyewitness at the hospital, WANG had already stopped breathing when he arrived at the hospital. However, the police forced him onto a respirator so that they could claim he died after being resuscitated. WANG had died a miserable death. His eyes were open, with one sunken and the other with a dilated pupil. His ribcage had been crushed and his whole body was covered with wounds.
One of WANG’s relatives said, "WANG was murdered by you [the police]". However, the authorities said, "We can arrest you for saying that". Under the pressure, WANG’s family had to hold back their tears, daring not to say another word.
