• Four Practitioners Who Died as a Result of the Persecution in Sichuan, Shaanxi, Hebei, and Hubei Provinces

  2006-10-27
  Mr. Liu Shaohua, 73 years old, was an employee of the Education Bureau in Langfang City, Hebei Province. After the persecution began the staff from his work place would go to his home to threaten or harass him, attempting to force him to write letters renouncing Falun Gong. In the spring of 2005, people from the local 610 Office told his work place that Liu Shaohua had been distributing leaflets exposing the persecution, so the staff from his work place went to his home to threaten him. In October of the same year, they went to his home again and said that he had been reported for meeting another practitioner. Liu Shaohua suffered threats and psychological persecution by these people until he died on November 12th, 2005.

  Mr. Liu Heqing, in his 30s, had previously left the forced labour camp. Unfortunately, he was again sentenced to forced labour in March 2005. He was beaten after he yelled, "Falun Dafa is good!" He fainted and was carried to a closed room. When he came to, he started yelling, "Falun Dafa is good!" He continued to yell when others were eating. Those in charge handcuffed him and punched his chest and stomach. All of his teeth fell out after the beating. Although he was beaten with sticks and electric batons, he still yelled, "Falun Dafa is good!" They used a long needle to puncture his tongue, pulled a threaded needle through it, and tied the thread to a weight. After that horrific torture, Mr. Liu could no longer talk nor look after himself.
