Case Description:
Ms. Chen Guangying, 57, lived near the Light Bulb Factory of Baoji City, Shaanxi Province. She was held for one year in a forced labor camp because she went to Beijing to appeal and clarify the facts. Because she had a doctor's certificate for her severe physical illnesses, she was granted medical parole and was put under close surveillance. Her illnesses, which improved significantly after she started practicing Falun Gong in 1998, relapsed. She died in May 2002.
