The family of a 34-year-old man who died in a detention center has accused officers of beating the man to death.
Lin Lifeng, detained after allegedly threatening a schoolboy with a knife, is the 16th known person to die in custody this year.
His family asked for a postmortem on the body, but police rejected the request.
