Mr. Fan Weihuai, 74 years old, was a retired employee of the Beifang Machine Factory in Chaoyang City, Liaoning Province. After he attended the Falun Gong study class held in Guangzhou City, he started practising Falun Gong. After that, he always followed the standard of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance" as the behaviour of a practitioner. His health was very good.
After July 20th, 1999, local policeman in Chaoyang City forced practitioners to write the three statements1. Whoever did not write the statements was arrested and sentenced to jail. Because local authorities often harassed him, 70-year-old Mr. Fan Weihui was forced to become destitute and homeless in September 2001.
No matter where he went, Mr. Fan Weihui persisted in exposing the persecution of Falun Gong and validated Dafa, from which he had personally gained benefits. On April 17th 2002, he was arrested by officials who disregarded the law. He was then sentenced to a long jail term by officials of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). He was sent to Dabei Jail in Shenyang City.
On December 7th, 2005, Mr. Fan Weihuai was found to be suffering from terminal liver cancer in jail. The jail authorities knew he was close to death, so in order to shift the responsibility, they released him.
Mr. Fan Weihui passed away on December 12th, 2005.
Note
1. "Three Statements": Practitioners are coerced under brainwashing and torture to write "Repentance Statement," "Guarantee Statement" or 'Dissociation Statement" as proof that they have given up their belief. In the statement, the practitioner is forced to admit remorse for practising Falun Gong, promise to give up Falun Gong, and never again associate with other practitioners or go to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong.
