Mr. Yu Zhongzhu was arrested on the opening day of the Beijing Olympics games. Five months later he was sentenced to six years in prison. He died on January 14, 2010 and his body was cremated without autopsy.
At the forced labor camp awarded as "Province-Level Advanced Work Unit" by CCP authorities, the persecution is typical of what goes on inside the prison systems throughout China.
Ms. Zhang Binglan and Mr. Sun Dejian were tried in November, 2009 and their effective defense led to no verdict at the public trial. Two months later they were sentenced.
Because one of the lawyers had visited the United States in 2005 for advanced training, local CCP authorities claimed that he had "background and overseas forces' support."
He was sentenced to three years in prison. Within two months he was beaten to death by inmates in the jail.
Clearwisdom.net and its Chinese-language sister-website (minghui.ca) provide first-hand reports about the horrors of the persecution of Falun Gong in China. Dozens of reports are received every day from the victims of torture, the wrongfully imprisoned, and families crippled by the senseless hardship and grief for their loved ones imposed by the persecution. In contrast, the websites also report positive news and events from the more than 80 countries around the world where Falun Gong is practiced, and serve as an online forum for practitioners to share stories of the good things Falun Gong has brought to their lives.
