Gao Xian-min Was Suspected to Be Suffocated to Death
January 27, 2000

Practitioner Gao Xian-min was suddenly announced to have died by the police during his detention after he was arrested when having a picnic with other practitioners in a park. Gao Xian-min was very healthy and a very kind person. Many were shocked by his death. Meanwhile, the police have not given any reasonable explanation to the cause of his death. Therefore, many people have great doubt about that.

During his detention, Gao Xian-min had been force-fed with high-density salt water. The police would cover one's nose with wet towels when they force-fed one with salt water. Therefore, it was suspected that Mr. Gao might have been suffocated to death.

On December 12, 1999, a Beijing practitioner, Ms. Wang Rui-rong, was arrested when she was practicing Falun Gong in the Yi-yuan Park of the Asian Sports Village. Since then, she has been detained in the Chao-yang District detention center. During her detention, she has been transferred from one cell to another for many times, and has been beaten up by the criminals. Currently, there is no further news about her.
