Three Practitioners from Jiangsu, Hebei, and Jilin Provinces Died Due to Persecution

Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Jiang Bingsheng was 40 years old and lived in Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province. Even under cruel persecution, he still believed in "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance." He went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong in 2000 and was sent to a forced labour camp. In 2003, he was sentenced to prison. He was tortured in the Suzhou City Prison and died during the New Year holiday in 2006.

Mr. Jia Wencheng, 60 years old, was a practitioner in Dingningdian Town, Dingzhou City, Hebei Province. He continued to appeal for Falun Dafa even after the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began to persecute Falun Gong. At the end of 2000, he was arrested by policemen and sent to the Chengbei Detention Centre in Dingzhou City. He was tortured by guards and prisoners until he could not eat or walk. A doctor diagnosed symptoms of heart disease, high blood pressure, phlebitis, and diabetes. The hospital did not accept him for treatment, so his family members took him home. After being persecuted for so long, he died on January 30th, 2006.

Practitioner Ms. Li Shiling, aged 60, graduated from a university, and was an engineer employed by the Tonghua City Petroleum Tool Plant in Jilin Province. She was forced to leave her house to escape persecution in March 2003. She was tracked by policemen when she was delivering materials exposing the persecution recently. At 3:00 p.m. on March 23rd, 2006, they arrested her and interrogated her in the Wudaojiang Police Station. About 5:00 a.m. on March 24th, 2006, she went to the toilet and tried to escape by jumping from the second floor. She received head and arm injuries. She had a physical exam in the No. 206 Hospital in Tonghua City and was diagnosed with intracranial bleeding. The police monitored her for three days and left when they saw she was unconscious. She died at 10:00 p.m. on March 29th, 2006.

State Security Agents including Jin Guiquan (Head, male), Tian Yuenan (Deputy Head, male), Shen Shuheng (male), and Lin Taiyuan (male) arrested practitioners during the time of the People's Congress and the Political Consultation Conference frequently. From March 9th to April 4th, 2006, six practitioners were arrested from their homes.
