Two Practitioners from Sichuan and Liaoning Provinces Died from Persecution

Ms. He Kechun, 60 years old, was a Falun Dafa practitioner from Shehong County, Sichuan Province. She learned Dafa in 1997. She was arrested by the police from the National Security and was "unlawfully sentenced¹" for one year, which was to be served outside of prison. Later, she was harassed many times by police officer Zhou Yuan and others. Consequently, she passed away on March 25th, 2006.

Yang Bo from the Heye Police Station: 86-825-5446189.

Du Qin from the Sanfeng Police Station: 86-825-629132.

Ms. Zhen Xueru was practitioner from Liaoning Province. In 2002, she was arrested when she went to Beijing to appeal. She was returned to her hometown and fined 2,300 yuan². Police officers often went her house to harass, intimidate, and threaten her which made her ill. Because she could not study the Falun Dafa teachings and do the exercises, her illness became worse. She could not walk or take care of herself. She died on January 11th, 2005.

Note

1. Illegally sentenced: Contrary to what former Chinese leader Jiang Zemin, who initiated the persecution, and the Chinese Communist Party would like the world to believe, practising Falun Gong is NOT illegal in China. Although the Public Security Department issued an unconstitutional set of restraints on the practice at the onset of the persecution in 1999, no laws have been passed by the only legislative body in China, the People's Congress, banning Falun Gong or granting the police the authority to arrest Falun Gong practitioners for practising the exercises or distributing flyers. For a more complete discussion of the illegality of the persecution of Falun Gong, please refer to the article "The Ban on Falun Gong—A Dictator's Whim, Not the Rule of Law". (Variation: "illegally arrested")

2. "Yuan" is the Chinese currency; 500 yuan is equal to the average monthly income of an urban worker in China.
