36-Year-Old Ms. Fan Yanli Dies after Being Detained in Henan Province

Ms. Fan Yanli, 36, lived in Nanyang City, Henan Province. On April 24th, 2008, she was arrested along with more than a dozen other Falun Gong practitioners in one of their homes. The police ransacked her home, and she was detained in the Nanyang City First Detention Centre for more than six months. Due to the hard labour, malnutrition, lack of sleep, and constant threats, she became very weak and often vomited.
