Four Falun Gong Practitioners in Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province Died as a Result of Persecution
2006-09-14Ms. Gu Xuejuan persisted in practising Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. She spoke to people about the facts of Falun Dafa to her work colleagues.

The torture she was subjected to caused hematochezia (bloody stools).
