Case Description:
Ms. Xu Caitian, 61, was a Falun Dafa practitioner from Yongxing Village, Yongan Town, Jidong County, Heilongjiang Province. She had a serious cerebral hemorrhage before 1995. After she started practicing Falun Dafa in 1996, Ms. Xu was healed and became very healthy. After the persecution of Falun Gong began on July 20, 1999, Ms. Xu was illegally arrested six times and sent to labor camp for a year in 2001. Following that, Xu Caitian was detained five times. When she was out distributing Falun Dafa truth-clarification materials on the night of March 7, 2004, personnel from the police station in Donghai Town, Jidong County abducted and incarcerated Ms. Xu in the Jidong County Detention Center. In October, the authorities kept harassing Ms. Xu at her home. She was forced to leave home in order to avoid further persecution. Xu Caitian passed away on January 5, 2005.
