Two Practitioners Died under Persecution in Jilin Province

1. Ms. Zhang Zhengrong Died in Changchun City

Ms. Zhang Zhengrong, 58, retired early. Her whole family of four are practitioners and the entire family has been under the Chinese Communist Party's brutal persecution. On the morning of March 1st, 2007, more than a dozen police officers from the Guilin Street Station and Domestic Security agents arrested the four family members and took away two big cases of Falun Dafa books. The police said viciously, "We will force your son to go through a divorce, stop your daughter's wedding, and break up your family!"

Ms. Zhang and her husband were both sentenced to one year of forced labour. Her husband was taken to the Chaoyanggou Forced Labour Camp. Ms. Zhang Zhengrong was taken to the Heizuizi Forced Labour Camp. Ms. Zhang became very ill due to the brutal treatment she received at the camp, so she had to be placed on medical probation. However, the local police constantly harassed her at home, which created constant unrest and stress in her life. She died on May 28th, 2007.

2. Ms. Song Yuhong Died in Jilin City

Ms. Song Yuhong, 53, retired early from her job at the Jilin City Paper Factory. She started practising Falun Dafa in 1996 and benefited mentally and physically. She went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa after July 1999, when the persecution began. In 2001, she was arrested by 610 Office¹ agents while distributing leaflets exposing the persecution and telling people the facts about Falun Gong in another county. She was sentenced to two years of forced labour and suffered cruel torture in the Heizhuizi Forced Labour Camp. Guards shocked her with electric batons multiple times. She lost two teeth due to being severely beaten. Her internal organs were injured by all sorts of torture. Ms. Song died in August 2001 after returning home.

Note

1. "The 610 office" is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems.
