Accountant Tortured to Death by Police for Believing in Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance

Gui Xunhua was a male Dafa practitioner born in 1964 and lived in Xinhe Village, Xiaochi Town, Huangmei County, Hubei Province. He worked as a village accountant. On March 11, 2002, police personnel kidnapped Gui Xunhua. During this event Gui Xunhua refused to cooperate or get into the police car. Several vicious officers beat him in broad daylight, with many people watching. Gui Xunhua's wife, who is also a practitioner, tried her best to resist the police and was also brutally beaten. The police kidnapped Gui Xunhua and sent him to the Jiujiang City Police Department where they illegally interrogated and detained him. Gui Xunhua was tortured to death on June 1, 2002, and his body was taken home. (The full details are not yet known.) Two days later, officials from Jiujiang City Police Department removed his body and cremated him. During the time Gui Xunhua's body was laid out at his home, the vicious police did not allow other practitioners to pay their respects to the body or send condolences. They arranged heavy guards around Gui Xunhua's home and did not permit other practitioners to attend the funeral.

Before Gui Xunhua died, he weighed more than 90 kilogram [about 200lbs]. After abuse and torture from the police, his body was only skin and bones and was in a completely wretched state, and the orifice of his urethra showed injury. There were obvious signs that a tube had been inserted. The injury leaked blood and another unknown fluid. The guess is that Gui Xunhua died from severe damage to his internal organs.
