  I witnessed how a Falun Dafa practitioner from Hubei Shiyan area was persecuted to death. I only knew her name was Zeng Xian'e, and she was in her 30s. Around midnight, we suddenly heard rapid footsteps and people talking about sending her quickly to the hospital. She was beside the room where I was, so I raised my head to watch after I heard the sound. The second day, practitioner Zeng died. We asked the police how Zeng was.
