Our fellow Falun Dafa disciple Wang Fengwei died from the torture in Shen County Detention Centre at the end of November 2002.

At the time her child was ill and needed medical attention. In front of the 10 year-old child, the police twisted his mother’s arm, slapped her in the face and even tied her up. This shocked the child so much that he would not stop crying.

The Falun Gong Information Centre in New York has received confirmation of the deaths of fifteen Falun Gong practitioners in the last month.

Gao Shuying’s parents-in-law are over 80 years old. Her mother-in-law is paralytic. Her two children are still in high school. They all need her to look after them. In addition, her husband Xin Baodong has been persecuted many times for steadfastly practicing Falun Dafa.

Falun Dafa practitioner Zhao Dongmei, female, was a former employee of the Housing Reform Office in Linfen District, Shanxi Province.

She went on a hunger strike to protest the persecution, and was brutally force-fed by male prisoners, resulting in her death on December 27, 2000.
