Case Description:
Ms. Li Guizhi, 87, lived in Beifangshen Village, Sanshilipu Township, Jinzhou District, Dalian City, Liaoning Province. Her critical illnesses all disappeared after she started practicing Falun Gong in February 1999. While practicing the Falun Gong exercises outside on August 13, 2000, someone reported her to police, and she was imprisoned in the local police station for three days. Because of her age, the authorities at the Jinzhou Detention Center refused to accept her despite the local police station's attempt to imprison her there. She was fined 200 yuan, frequently harassed, photographed, and forced to sign the three statements. Under persecution, she died in August 2001.
