(Clearwisdom.net) Zhou Xiangmei, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Linyi City, Shandong Province was tortured to death in June 2003 by the 610 Office in Linyi City and her company, Agricultural Credit of Nanfang Town, Lanshan District, Linyi City. The following describes the current situation of her son, Li Ning.
Name: Li Ning

Li Ning's father, Li Yongxin , was born in January 1958. He worked for Shangdong Province, Linyi City Transportation. He kept practicing Falun Dafa, and now is now being held and persecuted in the Shangdong Provincial Jail. Li Ning's mother, Zhou Xiangmei , was born on April 2, 1957. She worked for Agricultural Credit in Nanfang Town, Lanshan District, Linyi City, Shangdong Province.

Li Ning's parents improved quickly after starting practice in 1995. They treated people around them very well, following the principles of " Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance." Many people began practicing Dafa because of his parents.
Li Ning's father was very serious in learning, practicing and cultivating. Several times when he found a large sum of money in his bus, he returned it to the owners. He also refused to be compensated by the owners and told them, "I am a Falun Dafa practitioner. Returning what I found is what I should do. Our Master taught us to give up the attachment to fame and money." Li Ning's mother was also a steadfast practitioner. She was kind, sincere, and everyone treated her like a close friend.
Ever since 1999, the 610 Office has harassed Li Ning's parents many times because they persisted in practicing Falun Dafa. Personnel from the Office unlawfully broke into Li Ning's home to search, took Li Ning's mother into custody within her company, and confined her in a retirees' apartment to limit her personal freedom. In early 2003, Li Ning's father was sentenced to ten years in a prison in Jinan City, Shandong Province. Li Ning's mother passed away on May 21, 2003.
Li Ning has been living with his aunt since May 2003. He has not been doing well since his mother's death. He misses his parents very much. Li Ning's aunt doesn't have a stable job, and supporting her own three children, plus the high cost of education makes life very difficult for her. And now that she has to take care of Li Ning, she indeed has become overburdened.
