Case Description:

Ms. Li Guangzhen, 52 years old, was an outstanding teacher of Machang Town Center Primary School, Jianping County, Liaoning Province. Her husband Zhou Xirong is an English teacher in Machang Town Middle School. Because they are firm in practicing Falun Dafa, their house was searched many times by the police. They were detained, severely beaten, and the police extorted money from them. In October of 2002, the police arrested and detained them forcefully. In March of 2003, they were illegally sentenced to three-year prison terms.

Li Guangzhen was taken to Dabei Prison in Shenyang. She was severely tortured and thus unable to eat any longer. She quickly became emaciated. In October of 2003, she was bailed out for medical treatment and died on June 18, 2004.
