Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Bai Jinqi, 55, lived in Xishan Village, Gaosheng Town, Panjin City, Liaoning Province. He used to be very healthy, but he was tortured to a skeleton-like state in less than six months inside a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) labour camp and died upholding his beliefs.

On the morning of July 22nd, 2006, Mr. Bai was home alone when a group of policemen stormed in, arrested him, and ransacked his house. They made a mess and took away Falun Dafa books, a printer, papers, and other materials. Neighbours said a big crowd of police came in several vehicles.

Three days later, his family reported him missing to the police station. They found out that he was detained in the Panjin City Detention Centre. He was sentenced to one year of forced labour with ten days of detention without any legal procedures.

On August 3rd, 2006, Mr. Bai was taken to Benxi City Forced Labour Camp, where he was forced to write the Three Statements1, watch brainwashing videos, write "thought reports," and do hard labour.

After one heavy labour session, Mr. Bai felt pain in the right side of his chest, and he could not get up. The labour camp forced him to pay to see the doctors. The doctors found that he had late-stage lung cancer, and suspected that the cancer had spread from the liver to the lung. The labour camp administration hid the diagnosis, and they lied to Mr. Bai, saying that his ribs were fractured.

On December 9th, 2006, when Mr. Bai's family picked him up, he was as thin as a skeleton. He died on February 7th, 2007.
