Falun Dafa Practitioner Ms. Xu Fengying from Inner Mongolia Died from Persecution in 2001

Ms. Xu suffered from high blood pressure, thrombosis and numerous other illnesses before 1997. Her most severe illness was a blockage of her intestines. Doctors told her that she might not come out of the intestine operation alive. Ms. Xu started practising Falun Dafa in March 1998. Gradually her illnesses disappeared. She went to Beijing to peacefully appeal in July 1999. The police arrested her and sent her to a detention centre. On July 30, officers arrested her and extorted 1,500 yuan (1) from her.

When Ms. Xu was released home, the authorities ordered the village's Party Secretary and other officials to watch her around the clock. Ms. Xu was restricted from leaving home. She was again sent to the detention centre on the evening of December 1, 1999 and her home was ransacked.

On January 28, 2000, lawless officials went to Ms. Zheng's home and extorted 500 yuan from her son-in-law before allowing her to return home, where she would remain under surveillance. Ms. Xu Fengying died on February 5, 2001 from continuous persecution by the local officials, who constantly harassed her at her home.
