Li Shuhua 10.24.2003

LI Shuhua, female, 32 years old, was a resident of Peiying Street in Yushu City.

Around 9 a.m. on September 24, 2003, police officers from the Peiying Street Police Station, including two named LI Mingchao and JIANG Wei, abducted her while she was at home.

Thirteen days later, LI was beaten to death. Her body at the time of death was very thin. Half of her body was black and blue, and half of her skull was crushed. During the autopsy, more than five kilograms of bloody effusion was found in her abdominal cavity. The police prohibited the family from taking any pictures and guarded the body until it was cremated.

Two other members of LI’s family were also illegally detained for practicing Falun Gong. The police had illegally held her husband, YANG Zhanjiu, at a detention center from the Yushu City Police Department since August 2002. LI’s mother, CUI Zhanyun, was sentenced to one year and six months in the Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp in Changchun City. LI was survived by an elderly father and two young children.

According to an investigation by the Falun Dafa Information Center, a male staff member at the Politics and Security Office at the Yushu City Police Department was very nervous when he received a phone call from the investigator. He couldn’t utter a complete sentence and finally hung up the phone after saying, “I cannot answer your question over the phone.”
