Twenty six Falun Gong deaths from torture in China have been reported from November 2003 to January 2004 in nine different provinces. Torture methods reported include severe beating, electric shock, force-feeding and injections of nerve-damaging drugs. Among them was an elderly lady in her sixties and a thirty three year-old man.
A banner reading 'Bring Jiang Zemin, Luo Gan, Liu Jing and Zhou Yongkang to Justice' displayed by Falun Gong practitioners attracted a lot of attention from passers-by. Many of them asked for more information and some cars honked their horns in a show of support.
Practitioners also received early permission for this protest activity from the police station due to the good reputation of Falun Gong practitioners and their hard work to reveal the human rights abuses happening in China.
