Case Description:
Ms. Jiang Shuqin, 66 years old, was a resident of Taiping Village, Boli County, Heilongjiang Province. On April 25, 2001, when her elder son, elder daughter, younger son and younger daughter-in-law were driving to a nearby village to hand out truth-clarification material, they were reported to the police. Her elder son was caught and arrested. They extorted 20,000 yuan from him. Her elder daughter, younger son and daughter-in-law became homeless, going from place to place in order to avoid being arrested. She lived at home with her elder daughter-in-law and three teenagers. They led a difficult life. Policemen came to her home to force her to reveal the whereabouts of her children. They also kept her home under surveillance for 15 days. People from the Criminal Investigation Division kept threatening her. As a result, she was in deep distress. In June 2002, she passed away.
