(Minghui.org) Ms. Lin Fen and her mother live in Ningde City, Fujian Province. Officers from the Jiaocheng District Domestic Security Division and the Neighborhood Affairs Committee went to their homes and ransacked them on the afternoon of September 3, 2013. The police also arrested both women because they had told people to repect Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and shared their experiences of practicing Falun Dafa.

Elderly Woman Arrested

Ms. Lin’s mother, who is in her 70s, previously suffered from illnesses that had persisted more than 20 years, and she used to cough up blood. She visited many doctors to try to find a cure, but to no avail. After she began practicing Falun Dafa and following the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, her health gradually improved. She is grateful for finding Falun Dafa and told the people she met of her experience in gaining a second chance in life and the facts about the practice.

The police arrested Ms. Lin and took her to Ningde Police Department. They interrogated her in a basement, which terrified her. As a result of persecution, she began to develop life-threatening symptoms, so the police released her.

Ms. Lin's Story

Ms. Lin is in her 50s. She was in a car accident when she was younger, and afterwards she was always in poor health. She started practicing Falun Dafa in 1998 and then became healthier and happier.

Officers from the Jiaocheng District Domestic Security Division arrested her in 2001 and took her to a forced labor camp because she refused to give up her belief. There, she developed cholecystitis and needed surgery.

After the operation, she was pale and didn't have enough energy to walk. She began to earnestly cultivate Falun Dafa and did the Falun Dafa exercises at home. She then regained her health. She was able to do all the housework and take care of her elderly parents-in-law. She prepared all of their meals and did all the cleaning and washing for them.

Ms. Lin was once recognized as a “model daughter-in-law” by the Veteran Staff Bureau of the Jiaocheng District. Those who knew her said, “Few people can do as well as she.” Whenever she was praised, she replied, “It is the founder of Falun Dafa who taught me to be selfless and to always think of others first. If it wasn’t for Falun Dafa, I couldn't have done it.”

She often told people of her experiences and the benefits she gained from practicing Falun Dafa to encourage them to learn the truth about the practice. She is still being held in Ningde City Detention Center.
