2004-05-24
Forty three year old Dafa practitioner Ms. Bai Xiushuang was a resident of a village near Jiutai City, Jilin Province. Ms. Bai Xiushuang went to Beijing after the persecution began on July 20, 1999 to appeal for Falun Gong. She was unjustly detained and then sent to Jiutai City's compulsory brainwashing class for one month. After her release the police frequently harassed her.

Finally at the end of 2003, her previous illnesses, which had disappeared after she began practising Falun Gong, recurred, leading to her eventual death. -
