Detainee dies mysteriously

ZHENGZHOU - A 29-year-old man died mysteriously in a detention house last Sunday in Central China's Henan province after being held for a month, leaving the police and his family in disagreement over the cause of his death.

The police of Zhecheng county in Shangqiu city told Wang Shouzhang's family that he died suddenly of a heart attack with "no physical injuries", while his family insist he died unnaturally, since his body was bruised.

"His body was so injured; blood was visible around his nose and ears and his chest was swollen with bruises," Li Guizhi, Wang's mother, told China Daily.
