Mr. Zhao Wenpeng Died from Persecution at Guiyang City, Guizhou Province Police Hospital; Elderly Practitioner Ms. Yin Deqin Still Under Persecution

On March 7th, 2007, Dafa practitioner Mr. Zhao Wenpeng from Guiyang City died in the Guiyang City Police Hospital as a result of brutal persecution. Mr. Zhao was just over 40 years old. Currently, another practitioner, Ms. Yin Deqin, about 60 years old, is also being detained and persecuted in this hospital.

In the afternoon of August 7th, 2006, Liu Suzhi, chairman of the Workers Union in the Guiyang Postal and Tele-Communications Equipment Factory, led people to Zhao Wenpeng's home to gather "background information." During the morning of August 9th, Liu led two staffers from the National Materials Office to break into Mr. Zhao's home. They threatened Zhao, telling him to not practise Falun Gong anymore. Liu and his accomplices were very rude and unreasonable. Zhao Wenpeng compassionately explained the facts about Falun Dafa to them. However, Liu and the others did not listen at all and viciously swore at Dafa and Teacher Li [Teacher Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa]. Mr. Zhao further exposed the facts of the party's brutal persecution.

Liu and his followers were infuriated and reported Zhao Wenpeng to the 610 Office¹. Soon, more than ten policemen and officers from the Guiyang City Police Department, the Yunyan District Police Department, the Weiqing Road Police Station, and the Neighbourhood Committee swarmed into Mr. Zhao's home and confiscated all of his leaflets exposing the persecution, Dafa books, computer, and other valuables. Mr. Zhao was then arrested and sent to the Yunyan District Detention Centre in Guiyang City.

In the detention centre, Zhao Wenpeng suffered all kinds of brutal torture. In just a few months, he developed oedema all over his body. Torture also left a big wound on the side of Mr. Zhao's left thigh, which continually oozed pus.

Zhao Wenpeng was transferred to the Guiyang City Police Hospital for what was called "treatment" by the authorities. After a checkup, the police doctor declared that Mr. Zhao had diabetes. The so-called "treatments" of injections and drugs only made Zhao Wenpeng's health deteriorate more rapidly. During this treatment, Mr. Zhao contracted acro-anaesthesia [numbness of limbs], incontinence, and other disorders.

Even under such severe conditions, the officials still sentenced Zhao Wenpeng to forced labour camp (for two or three years, the details are still under investigation) without a trial. On March 7th, 2007, Mr. Zhao Wenpeng died in the Guiyang City Police Hospital as a result of the brutal persecution he suffered.

Ms. Yin Deqin, over 60 years old, is still detained and being persecuted in the Guiyang City Police Hospital. Ms. Yin is a Dafa practitioner from Qingyan Town, Guiyang City. Because she persuaded elementary students to quit the Young Pioneers for their own good [the Young Pioneers is an affiliate of the Chinese Communist Party], the Qingyan Town police searched her home at around 7:00 p.m. on October 23rd, 2006. When the police tried to arrest her without a warrant, she resisted and jumped out of the window in an escape attempt and broke her leg. Nonetheless, the police still arrested Ms. Yin and continue to hold her in the Guiyang City Police Hospital.
