Mr. Li Enying and his wife Li Chunfu both firmly cultivated Falun Dafa and followed the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. They had been persecuted for the past eight years.

Soon after the New Year of 2001, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Deputy Secretary of the Fifth Farm Li Xun (male, has since transferred jobs) and Fifth Farm Police Station Director Sun Qiyuan (male) forcibly took Mr. Li Enying from his home and beat him for more than four hours in the police station. He was kicked, slapped, and shocked with electric batons. They locked him in a metal cage overnight. On May 20th, 2001, as ordered by the Tanghai County Police Department 610 Office¹, Fifth Farm CCP Deputy Secretary Li Xun, CCP Office Chair Zheng Yougang (male), Fifth Farm Police Station Director Sun Qiyuan, and Deputy Director Wang Mingzhuo, Mr. Li Enying and his wife were deceived into going to the Farm Office. They were then forcibly taken away and detained in the Tanghai County Detention Centre. During the detention period, Mr. Li Enying was beaten by seven policemen at the same time, led by officer Sun Yuechang and Li Xuejun (the latter transferred to the Eleventh Farm Police Station).

On October 11th, 2006, the Political and Security Office Chair Li Taizhong (male, transferred jobs) and Deputy Chair Sun Jingsen (male), together with the Fifth Farm Police Station Director Yao Yuzhong (male, transferred jobs) and the Deputy Director Li Quanrui, arrested Mr. Li Enying again while he was working on a railroad and detained him in the Tanghai County Detention Centre.

In order to avoid further persecution, Mr. Li Enying escaped the detention centre and left town. However, he was arrested at around 1:30 p.m. on January 19th, 2007, at a fellow practitioner's home in Beiqingtuo Village in Changgezhuang Township, Xinjuntun Town in Fengren County, Tangshan City. Twenty police officers where involved in the arrest. They sentenced Mr. Li to forced labour in the Shijiazhuang City Forced Labour Camp on January 25th, 2007.

Mr. Li was subjected a multitude of tortures in the Shijiazhuang Labour Camp, including being forced to sit on a small stool for a long time, and being closely monitored by prisoners. He was not allowed visiting rights. On June 20th, Mr. Li started to experience discomfort, and he was diagnosed to have a pleura infection (tuberculosis). The camp released him on bail for medical treatment on July 17th. Upon returning home, Li Enying had difficulty eating, walking, and breathing, had a blurry mind, was unable to lie down, and his whole body was swollen. He coughed up a lot of mucus as well. Mr. Li Enying died on the afternoon of July 29th, 2007.
