Case Description:
Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Guo Yuzhi lived in Yichang City, Hubei Province. She was employed by the Gezhouba Foundation Company. In May 2000, Ms. Guo went to Beijing to clarify the truth and validate Falun Dafa. She was arrested in Tiananmen Square and brutally beaten by police. The thugs tied rope around her breasts and pulled very hard, causing her breasts to be severely damaged. After 15 days of torture, she was taken back to Yichang City and detained in the Yichang City First Detention Center for 15 days. The detention center authorities saw that she was dying, so they released her. At that point her breasts had become badly infected. Ms. Guo suffered for several months before passing away.
