Mr. Yu Chunhai was a 63-year old Falun Gong practitioner from Zuojia Town, Jilin Province. Because he insisted on practicing Falun Gong, local police and government officials had constantly harassed him. On the night of February 7, 2002, local policemen from the town "610 Office," and the town Deputy Party Secretary, broke into Yu Chunhai's home with the help of the village Party Secretary Zhang. They forcibly took Yu Chunhai and his wife away, leaving two young grandchildren at home without care. That same night, Yu Chunhai's second daughter and son-in-law were also abducted, but the son-in-law escaped in the darkness. The couple and their daughter were sent to the Zuojia Town Police Station. The next morning, Yu Chunhai was able to escape.
In order to avoid further persecution, Yu Chunhai had to leave home and wander the streets. However, later on he was arrested again and subjected to long-term detention and torture. No one ever knew where he had been detained.
On the night of November 14, 2003, several strangers brought Yu Chunhai, on the verge of death, back to his village, Machang Village, whose residents hadn't seen him for a long time. The strangers dropped him off in a home and left. Three days later, Yu Chunhai passed away.
When called and asked about Yu Chunhai, the officials of Machang Village confirmed his death.
