Mr. Liu Zhongyang was a retired employee of the Xishui County Bus Company in Hubei Province. He was 60 years old and lived in Liupulaojia, Yanmao Town, Xishui County, Hubei Province. On April 17, 2004, he received a Falun Dafa truth clarifying VCD, and was reported while watching it at home. Though he was not a Falun Dafa practitioner, the Xima Town police stormed his home, threatened him and attempted to arrest him. His family and neighbors strongly resisted the police action. The police agreed not to arrest him, but extorted 500 yuan (1) from them before leaving. Mr. Liu's blood pressure elevated significantly after being threatened that day. He died 3 days later on April 26, 2004.
