Three Practitioners from Hebei and Anhui Provinces Were Persecuted to Death

Ms. Li Guiying, 67, was a resident of Qiangnian Village, Wangcheng Town, Wei County, Hebei Province. After Ms. Li started practising Falun Dafa, her heart disease and back pain went away. Her skin became delicate like a young woman's. Although she was illiterate, she was able to read the Falun Gong book, Zhuan Falun after several months of practise. She tried hard to do everything according to Teacher Li's teaching and to be a good person. During the Chinese New Year in 2000, her daughter-in-law, who is also a Falun Gong practitioner, was detained by the village committee because she went to Beijing to appeal for justice for Falun Gong. In the village committee, the village and town officials loudly scolded and threatened Ms. Li. They also called up the police car and tried to take her to the town government. Ms. Li was so frightened that she passed out. Her family members came and brought her home. After that, Ms. Li's health deteriorated day by day. Whenever she saw village or town officials enter her yard, she became so scared that she trembled. By 2003, she was diagnosed with a serious condition in which her red blood cells couldn't reproduce. In March 2003, Ms. Li died.

Mr. Miao Youzhong, 64, was a resident of Hengjian Village, Wei County, Hebei Province. After Mr. Miao started practising Falun Gong in 1997, his heart disease, lung disease, and oesophageal cancer all went away. After the persecution of Falun Gong started on July 20th 1999, officials from the 610 Office¹ and village officials often went to Mr. Miao's home to harass and threaten him. This caused him to live under a cloud of constant fear. He developed depression, and his health condition became worse and worse. Mr. Miao died in March 2005.

Mr. Liu Haibo was a resident of Taihe, Anhui Province. After Mr. Liu started practising Falun Gong in 1997, his illnesses disappeared and he regained his health. After the Jiang regime started the persecution of Falun Gong in July 1999, the local police detained Mr. Liu four times and forced him to attend brainwashing classes. He was fined hundreds of yuan² and all his Falun Gong materials were confiscated. Because Mr. Liu was not able to practise Falun Gong, his illnesses came back and he died in September of 2001.

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.

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