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.

Zhang Guoliang, a policeman from the Yingtan Railway Police Department in Jiangxi Province, actively persecuted Dafa practitioners and caused several practitioners to be sentenced to forced labor camps. In 2001, he was transferred to Nanchang City and promoted to bureau chief officer due to "merit" obtained through persecuting practitioners. In 2002, at the end of June, he received karmic retribution and was killed in a car accident.

The Political and Judiciary Secretary Li Ruihua from Langfang City used her power to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. Her carrying out the persecution against Dafa practitioners has impacted her entire family. Her husband was dismissed from work, and her elder son also lost his job. Her second son was seriously injured in a car accident. Li was also eventually dismissed from her job.
