Case Description:
Mr. Wei Guangxing, 48, lived in Yi County, Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province. Before he started Falun Dafa cultivation in 1998, Mr. Wei suffered serious heart disease. After he began the practice, he quickly regained his health. After July 20, 1999, the local police repeatedly harassed him and extorted money from him, calling them fines. He was also illegally detained for more than 20 days in the Yi County Detention Center in August 2001. He suffered tremendous physical and mental torture, and his health deteriorated. In addition, in September 2001, his daughter was illegally sentenced to three years' detention in a labor camp, and she was detained at the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp because she peacefully appealed for Falun Gong in Beijing. These circumstances greatly impaired his physical and mental health, and his disease relapsed. He passed away in January 2002.
