Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Xiao Yali used to live in a village near Shuangcheng City of Heilongjiang Province, China. On March 6, 2004, she died as a result of a violent force-feeding while she was being detained at the Shuangcheng City No. 2 Detention Centre. After being forcefully arrested, Ms. Xiao had to leave her twin children, a boy and a girl, behind. The boy is called Sun Ri and the girl is called Sun Yue. The young children cry for their mother every day. Currently, these two children are living with their grandparents. Ms. Xiao's husband, Sun Wancai, is in poor health and is suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis. He already owes a debt of more than 10,000 yuan (1) due to his medical treatments

Around 4 p.m. on February 28, 2004, government officials, a police officer and other people, broke into Ms. Xiao's house and ransacked it. Between 7 p.m. and 8 p.m., more officials broke into Ms. Xiao's house again, but this time they abducted her. Ms. Xiao was then sent to the Shuangcheng City No. 2 Detention Centre. Around 6:40 p.m. on March 6, 2004, Ms. Xiao's family received a phone call from the detention centre, asking the family to bring some money to the hospital accident and emergency where Ms. Xiao was being treated for an illness (Ms. Xiao had been very healthy; she didn't have any ailments at all before her detention)

Ten minutes later, the family received another call from the detention centre, saying that the family could either go to the hospital that day or the next day (actually at that time, Ms. Xiao had already been tortured to death.) Over twenty family members and relatives went that same night; however, a certain officer refused to allow the family members see Ms. Xiao. The next day, the family learned that Ms. Xiao was already dead and they saw her body. There was an oval shaped scar on her forehead, the right side of her chest was swollen, both her hands were twisted and had turned purple, and her mouth was swollen as well. It was such a horrible and upsetting sight! When some public security staff requested that Ms. Xiao be cremated immediately (without receiving a memorial service), all the family members immediately protested strongly against such inhuman treatment. On March 13, 2004, Ms. Xiao was cremated against the family's will.

After Ms. Xiao was tortured to death, the whole family was devastated. Not only did Ms. Xiao's family feel great sorrow, but her neighbours also mourned for her. They wept for having lost such a good person.
