A high court in central China's Hunan province has ruled in favor of a rape victim's mother who sued a local authority for putting her in a labor camp.

The Hunan Provincial People's High Court on Monday ordered the Yongzhou municipal re-education through labor commission to pay Tang Hui 2,941 yuan (478 U.S. dollars) in compensation for infringing upon her personal freedom and causing mental damages.

The 40-year-old mother appealed to the high court in April after the Yongzhou Intermediate People's Court denied her request for an apology and compensation from the re-education through labor commission.

Tang was put into the labor camp after she publicly petitioned for harsher punishments for those found guilty of raping her daughter and forcing her into prostitution.

In October 2006, Tang's then 11-year-old daughter was kidnapped, raped and forced into prostitution. She was rescued on December 30, 2006.

On June 5, 2012, the Hunan Provincial Higher People's Court sentenced two of the girl's kidnappers to death. Four others were given life sentences and another one received a 15-year prison term.

Tang insisted harsher punishments for all those found guilty. She was put in a labor camp in Yongzhou for "seriously disturbing social order and exerting a negative impact on society" after protesting in front of local government buildings on August 2, 2012.
