Case Description:
Ms. Dong Linrong, 73 years old, was a practitioner in Fuyang City, Zhejiang Province. Ms. Dong was handicapped before she practiced Falun Gong. She looked pale and sickly. Ms. Dong started to practice Falun Dafa in August 1997. Her festering leg wounds were cured after she had suffered for several decades. After the persecution started in 1999, Ms. Dong clarified the truth about Falun Gong. Therefore, the local police arrested her. The police came frequently to her home, confiscated her property and threatened her family. Even Ms. Dong's relatives were implicated in the persecution. Ms. Dong was harassed for a long time and suffered because of the pressure from her family and from the authorities. She was mentally traumatized. She became semi-paralyzed in September 2004 and died in March 2005.
