Case Description:
Ms. Chen Fengying was a 55-year-old resident of Qiangaomiao Township, Xinyie County, Henan Province. Her entire family practices Falun Gong. Since July 20, 1999, her husband had to leave home to avoid persecution. Police frequently came to search her home and arrest her family members. Right before the 16th People's Congress, police took Ms. Chen and her 12-year-old daughter to the police station. They interrogated them separately for an entire day in order to obtain the location of her husband. Ms. Chen was traumatized by the incident. Soon after, she passed away suddenly on January 6, 2003.
