Five Falun Dafa Practitioners from Sichuan and Liaoning Provinces Died under Persecution

Ms. Zheng Shihui was 68 years old and lived in Dazhuanwan Village, Longping Township, Suining City, Sichuan Province. She used to have many ailments, especially a bloated stomach that made it difficult for her to eat or sleep well. Ms. Zheng started cultivating Falun Dafa in October 1998. Her stomach problem was gone only several days later and all of her other symptoms disappeared as well. After July 20th, 1999, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started slandering Falun Dafa and persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners. Ms. Zheng went out to tell the facts of Falun Dafa to people who had been misled by the government propaganda, give out flyers, and post banners. One evening in May 2002, the CCP Dazhuanwan Village secretary Zhou Guisong (male) and 610 Office¹ director Huang Yong (male), and others, stormed into Ms. Zheng's home, but didn't find any Falun Dafa materials. They still took her away and detained her in the Nanqiang Police Station of Suining City overnight. Ever since that night, Ms. Zheng was constantly harassed at home. Ms. Zheng Shihui died on September 9th, 2005 as a result of the relentless persecution.

Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Li Hongpeng was 27 years old and was an employee of the Feige Bicycle Factory in Tianjin City. She went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa in September 2000, was arrested by the police, and was beaten until she suffered a brain injury. The beating resulted in extravagated fluid inside her skull, a swollen head, her face was deformed, her eyes bruised, and she lost her eyesight. Ms. Li could no longer take care of herself. She died at the end of December 2000.

Mr. He Guanying was a Falun Dafa practitioner from Shenyang City, Liaoning Province. He used to have bladder cancer, and the doctors once told him that he had several months to live. Mr. He recovered miraculously after practising Falun Dafa and was a volunteer assistant for a local practice site. However, after the persecution started, between 2000 to 2001, his old sickness recurred, and He Guangying passed away.

Ms. Song Fengying, 61 years old, was a Falun Dafa practitioner in Shenyang City, Liaoning Province. She started cultivating Falun Dafa in 1995. From April to November 1999, she went to Beijing four times to appeal for Dafa. In April 2001, Ms. Song became ill with rectal cancer. The cancer spread to her liver and lung. She died in July 2004.

Ms. Yang Xiuqin, 71 years old, was a Falun Dafa practitioner living in Hao Village, Fuxing District, Handan City, Hebei Province. Her health became very good after she started practising Falun Dafa. When the persecution began, her daughter's home was ransacked and her daughter was detained and sent to forced labour and brainwashing sessions many times. The trauma of her daughter's persecution severely damaged Ms. Yang's mental and physical health. She died on July 21st, 2005.
