Mrs. Li Yansong was a 57-year-old Dafa practitioner from Dalian City, Liaoning Province. In September 2000, she went to Beijing to appeal for Dafa. At the Dalian Bus Station, she was ordered to curse Teacher. She firmly refused and was arrested. Later she was sent to a labour camp to be persecuted.

Because of the torture, her health deteriorated. Not wanting to take the responsibility, the labour camp released her on medical parole. She returned home in April 2001 and passed away in November 2003.
