Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Shen Jinyu, 65 years old, lived in Wuhan City, Hubei Province. Both of her kidneys were dysfunctional, and she also had many other kinds of illnesses before she started practising Falun Gong. She was completely cured after she started practising Falun Dafa in 1994. In September 1999, Ms. Shen went to Beijing to appeal and was arrested. Communist Party officials sent her to a brainwashing class where she was hung up by her handcuffed hands, put in a metal cage and had her hands shackled behind her back. In December 2002, the Communist officials arrested Shen Jinyu again and sent her to the Siwei Road Police Station, where they handcuffed her hands behind her back and beat her for the whole night. In early 2003, agents dragged Shen Jinyu from her home and took her to Jiangan District Brainwashing Class.
Since the persecution began in 1999, perpetrators from the Siwei Street Communist Party Office, the police station and the Neighbourhood Party Committee often ransacked Shen Jinyu's home and took her away and sent her to prison. These outrages under the persecution physically and mentally devastated Ms. Shen. She passed away on January 1st, 2006.

His superiors Cui and Yan at Fushun Economic Development District Work Bureau, often harassed him at his home and tried to coerce him to write a guarantee statement to renounce his belief. They threatened to suspend his salary if he refused. Su and Tian from the Gaowan Police Department frequently harassed him at his home, which severely disrupted his life. Officials from the Gaowan Education Committee also persecuted Mr. Wang by refusing to issue him a retirement certificate [which meant he would not enjoy some special treatment for retired teachers], although Wang Zhengchun had reached retirement age. Wang Zhengchun was constantly tormented and pressured. He passed away in March 2005.
