(Clearwisdom.net) In Mayu Town, Rui'an City, Zhejiang Province, if you inquire as to why Ms. Zhou Xiaoqin suddenly died when her health was improving, all people with inside information would say indignantly, "She was traumatized to death by staff members of the court." Just a few days before her death, Ms. Zhou was pressured by staff members of the court every day, and she was relentlessly harassed by police officers.

One day, Falun Gong practitioner Zhou Xiaoqin was threatened by police officers from the State Security Division and staff members of the court. They threatened to sentence her husband to prison for three to seven years unless she provided information about another Falun Gong practitioner, Mr. Zhou Xiaobo. Under the intense pressure, and hoping her husband would be released, she wrote down the information, following the requirement of the authorities of the State Security Division. She was devastated when she discovered that she had been deceived by the police officers, who had promised that her husband would be released as long as she provided evidence against Mr. Zhou Xiaobo. She not only failed to free her husband, but also implicated fellow practitioner Mr. Zhou Xiaobo. Ms. Zhou Xiaoqin developed a severe case of uremia. After 6:00 p.m. that same day, Ms. Zhou died in a taxi.

Ms. Zhou had developed uremia a long time ago. The physicians suggested she have a kidney transplant. When she went to Shanghai for treatment in 1996, she began to practice Falun Gong. As time went by, she totally recovered. She met her husband Fei (family name unknown) after she began practicing Falun Gong. They have a child who is seven years old. People with uremia often risk their life when giving birth to a child. Some women with a less severe condition than Ms. Zhou have passed away in childbirth. Her physician took her recovery to be incredible. After the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) launched the persecution of Falun Gong on July 20, 1999, the 610 Office of Rui'an City frequently threatened and harassed Falun Gong practitioners. They monitored and detained Ms. Zhou and her husband, and threatened and pressured them and their family members. Police officers even went to Ms. Zhou's workplace to harass her. To avoid the huge disturbances caused to others, she had to quit her job. With the escalating harassment and abuse, Ms. Zhou could not practice the Falun Dafa exercises and study the Fa normally. As a result, her health returned to the condition she had before she began practicing Falun Gong, and she was hospitalized frequently for dialysis.

On November 2, 2007, Ms. Zhou's husband was illegally arrested and detained by police officers of the State Security Division. That was a serious blow for her. Mr. Zhou Xiaobo, also a Falun Gong practitioner, was her fellow townsman. Just for visiting Ms. Zhou, he was arrested and his home was searched by more than 20 police officers, led by Zhao Hongjiao (male), director of the State Security Division. When his father was on his deathbed Mr. Zhou Xiaobo was not allowed to see him. After frequent requests from the family Mr. Zhou Xiaobo was able to see his father's body three days after his death, under the escort of more than 10 police officers. It looked like Zhou Xiaobo had been tortured because one of his feet was badly injured and he could not stand on his own. He was dragged into the room by officers. There was not enough time for his mother to take a look at his foot. Under police surveillance, the whole family hugged and wept bitterly for almost 10 minutes before Mr. Zhou Xiabo was taken away by the police.

Zhao Hongjiao of the State Security Division would go to Ms. Zhou's home to press her for information whenever he saw that truth-clarifying materials had been distributed. He claimed that she would be rewarded if she gave him information. At that time, the CCP was planning to sentence Mr. Zhou Xiaobo, Ms. Zhou Xiaoqin's husband Fei, and another female practitioner who had been sentenced to a forced labor camp previously. To frame Mr. Zhou Xiaobo, the CCP personnel deceived and pressured Ms. Zhou Xiaoqin, to force her to give evidence against him.

A formerly weak woman with an incurable illness, Ms. Zhou was rescued from a desperate situation by practicing Falun Gong. She totally recovered and was able to give birth to a child, raise a child and work normally. However, due to the persecution, she lost her practice environment. Moreover, the CCP personnel intimated her to provide evidence against others. After manipulating her, they went back on their word. Consequently, she died under immense grief.

Since the persecution started in 1999, Zhao Hongjiao has been responsible for a lot of bloodshed. At present, it appears that he is receiving karmic retribution for his crimes and has developed a skin disease on his face. His whole face is as pale as a piece of white paper.
