Ms. He Fengqing was from Huamei Village, Dafeng Town, Xindu District of Chengdu City. Before she started practicing Falun Dafa in 1996, she had a long-term heart ailment and was unable to take care herself. Within one year after she started practicing Falun Gong, her diseases were gone and she became healthy.

After July 20, 1999, when the persecution of Falun Gong started, Ms. He went to Beijing to appeal to the government for the right to practice Falun Gong. In July 2000, she held a peaceful appeal on Tiananmen Square in Beijing. She was later arrested and escorted back to her hometown. She was detained in the Chengdu City Detention Center and suffered there from persecution.

When Ms. He was released, the Chengdu City 610 Office put her under constant monitoring and surveillance. They repeatedly harassed her and finally forced her to attend a brainwashing session. Due to the prolonged persecution, Ms. He passed away in July 2003 at the age of 63.
