She was marching with other inmates in the prison yard when she was seen squatting down a few times.

She said her legs were aching.

Later, she was slow in climbing the stairs, then she sat and leaned against the wall.

In the guardroom later, two staff nurses had problems finding her pulse.

Attempts to revive her failed and she was taken to Changi General Hospital and pronounced dead.

Thursday was the coroner’s inquiry into the death last March of Lian Huizuan, 27, who was committed to Changi Women’s Prison in May 2010 for drug consumption.

Read the full report in The New Paper on Friday (Dec 7).
