Lin v. Holder (unpub)
July 29, 2010
**Persecution, coercive population control**
Lin credibly testified she went into hiding for three months and escaped China to avoid a forced abortion on account of her status as a pregnant, single, underage woman. She gave birth shortly after arriving in this country. Her boyfriend was imprisoned for this offense, and when released, also escaped China. A reasonable fact finder would be compelled to conclude that Lin suffered past persecution on account of her resistance to China’s coercive population control program.
