(Clearwisdom.net) [Editors' Note: In both Western and Chinese culture, the principle of karmic retribution, that is, being held ultimately accountable for one's own actions, is widely accepted. The fundamental teaching of Falun Gong is the characteristic of the universe, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance." The universe will reward actions that are in harmony with this principle, while actions such as beating, torturing and murdering people will incur karmic retribution. Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while evildoings will meet due retribution. Articles such as this one are meant as a compassionate reminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing. While many of those who persecute Falun Gong are merely "following orders," the universal law requires that they, too, be held responsible for their actions, and that only by reversing their course of wrongdoing may they escape retribution.]

Retribution Cases in Pingchuan District, Baiyin City, Gansu Province

Case 1

Sun Jie is a former security section chief of Pingchuan District Police Department. After 1999, he often broke into Dafa practitioners' houses to illegally search and confiscate properties, grabbing Dafa books and materials. He slandered Dafa and illegally sent 12 Dafa practitioners to forced labor camps. In March 2002, this criminal sprained his ankle when he was illegally interrogating a Dafa practitioner. Since then, whenever he arrested Dafa practitioners his feet and legs would ache. Unfortunately he was still unrepentant, and in the end he was dismissed from his job in September 2002.

Case 2

Zhang Guangde is a deputy chief of the security section chief of Pingchuan District Police Department. Together with Sun Jie, Zhang relentlessly persecuted Dafa practitioners and defamed Dafa.

Case 3
