Case Description:
Ms. Lu Fengxi, 88, was a resident of Hailaer City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. She started to practice Falun Gong in 1997 at the age of 81. Between July 1999 and November 2000, her daughter (also her only child) was detained in jail twice for nearly four months. The police also ransacked her home several times and harassed her frequently. Ms. Lu and her daughter had depended on each other and had lived together for over 60 years. Because of the persecution and pressure, Ms. Lu's health deteriorated. She died on January 14, 2003.
