Ms. Lu Yanfang, 60, Persecuted to Death by Police from Nancheng Police Station of Shulan City, Jilin Province

(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Lu Yanfang from Shulan City, Jilin Province died on October 10, 2006 due to persecution by police from the Nancheng Police Station. Before her death, she had to leave home to escape the persecution. That night, police officers from the Nancheng Police Station and staff from the Shulan City National Security Brigade illegally arrested practitioners Mr. Zhang Zhonghua, Mr. Zhao Yiguang and Mr. Zhao's wife and ransacked their homes.

Ms. Lu Yanfang was about 60 years old. She went to Beijing twice to appeal on behalf of Falun Gong after the persecution began on July 20, 1999. Police officers stopped her when she reached Beijing the second time and illegally held her for fifteen days. In March 2002, she was again held for fifteen days. On March 11, 2003, policeman Jiang Zehang from the Nancheng Police Station went to her home to harass her and found some truth-clarifying materials. He then brought several police to ransack her home and confiscated many Dafa books and truth-clarifying materials. To avoid being harassed, Ms. Lu was forced to leave home and become destitute. Her young son was left alone at home without anyone to care for him. He had to look for a part-time job to support himself.

In May 2006, Ms. Lu's whereabouts were reported to authorities; she was forced to leave the place where she was staying. The police from Shulan City searched for her, claiming to help her son look for a job. They staked out places she might be visiting and searched everywhere for her. They even searched in the mountains. To avoid arrest, Ms. Lu had to walk dozens of miles in the mountains during the night. Because of this tremendous mental and physical pressure, she became ill and died on October 10.

On the evening of October 10, 2006, the police chief and two police officers from the Nancheng Police Station broke into practitioner Mr. Zhang Zhonghua's home. They ransacked his home and confiscated many of his personal belongings. Later, they arrested Mr. Zhang and detained him at the Nanshan Detention Center. That night, a dozen police officers from the Shulan City Public Security Bureau and the Nancheng Police Station broke into practitioner Mr. Zhao Yiguang's home and arrested him and his wife. Mr. Zhao's wife had a heart attack and was taken to a hospital. Police extorted 3,000 yuan before they released her. Mr. Zhao is still being held at the Nanshan Detention Center in Shulan City.

In July 2006, staff from the Shulan City 610 Office, the National Security Brigade, local police station, and the Security section of the Jishu Mining Bureau joined forces and arrested Shulan City practitioners Zhu Yijia, Cao Guiru, Ping Chen, Li Xiuling, Hu Tianchi, Chen Qinglan, and others, and took them to the Xiangshui Reservoir Brainwashing Center in Jishu Township, Shulan City.
