Practitioner Mr. Wang Guibin Persecuted to Death in Hebei Province

On September 1st, 2006, Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Wang Guibin from Ximalin Town, Wanquan County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province was arrested by police officers from the Wanquan County Public Security Bureau, the National Security Team, and the Ximalin Town police station, as well as officials from the Village Party Council. He was sent to the Shisanli Detention Centre in Zhangjiakou to be persecuted. At 1:00 a.m. on September 14th the police declared that Mr. Wang had died; however, his wife was prohibited from seeing his body.

Mr. Wang's three sons rushed over immediately and managed to see the body, but the police refused to let them bring their father's body home. It is not known how Mr. Wang died.

Mr. Wang Guibin was a 57-year-old Falun Dafa practitioner. Since the persecution began on July 20th, 1999, his home has been broken into on several occasions by members of the Communist Party from the local police station and the Public Security Team. Many of his personal belongings were confiscated and he was arrested no fewer than ten times in the past seven years. He was imprisoned at the Village Party Council, the town police station, the detention centre, a brainwashing session, etc., where he suffered brutal beatings, humiliation, and all forms of persecution as an attempt to force him to give up his cultivation in Falun Dafa. The local officials tried to sentence Mr. Wang to "re-education" through a forced labour term in prison, giving up only when his health had severely deteriorated from persecution.

During the years when Mr. Wang was forced to leave home and live in exile to avoid being arrested, he had to spend many nights in cemeteries and fields.

At around 6:00 a.m. on September 1st, 2006, Mr. Wang had just stepped into the vegetable market run by his three sons when Wu Rui reported him to the authorities. Chief of the Ximalin Public Security Team Guo Wanbao, police officer Cai Jianping, and two other police officers surnamed Guo and Sun arrived immediately. They lured Mr. Wang to the police station by asking him to come for a quick talk. Many passers-by witnessed them forcibly pushing Mr. Wang into the police car. It wasn't until two days later that Guo Wanbao presented Mr. Wang's family members with an arrest warrant.

At around 4:00 p.m. on September 15th, the Wanquan National Protection Team police car stopped in front of Mr. Wang's home once again. The driver Tian Haidong asked to speak to Mr. Wang's wife. When she came out, he took her to the Zhangjiakou funeral parlour and told her that her husband was dead.

This sudden news traumatised her, and she collapsed immediately. She needed the support of others to walk, fell sick and became bedridden. She is currently hospitalised and is being sustained through continuous intravenous injection. Mr. Wang's mother, who is over 80 years old, became mentally weak after seeing her son arrested on so many occasions.
