Practitioner Zhang Wenya, from Changchun City, Was Tortured to Death in Xi'an City

July 15, 2001

[Clearwisdom.Net] Zhang Wenya, a Falun Gong practitioner from Changchun City, Jilin Province, was tortured to death by the police in Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province, on April 22, 2001. A relative took his cremated remains back to Changchun City two months later, on June 24. The Xi'an Police Department told his family that Zhang had "killed himself" and showed the family the videotape of his "suicide." The family was not willing to discuss the details.

Please consider the following: How could a videotape of someone's suicide possibly exist? If a person were to ask the police to videotape his or her own suicide, then how could the police allow that person to follow through with it?

With benevolence in our hearts, we would like to let people all over the world know that it is a crime against others, and against yourselves, to ignore or condone this extremely cruel persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners. Please come and learn what Falun Dafa is really all about. Please join Falun Dafa practitioners in totally eradicating all evil!

Please note: The above date, "June 24," is not an error. We were told that the police extorted a large amount of money from Zhang's family, purportedly to cover the expenses of preserving her body.
