(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.
Meng Weizhong, Mayor of Xiangcheng City, Henan Province, actively followed former president Jiang Zemin's regime to brutally persecute Falun Dafa practitioners. In October 2003 he had a car accident on the Beijing-Zhuhai highway and died of severe injuries.
Meng Weizhong viciously persecuted practitioners and profusely slandered Falun Dafa in many of his speeches on different occasions. During the lawless officials' brutal persecution of practitioners, Meng Weizhong participated in the conspiracies against practitioners. His hands were covered in practitioners' blood. In June 2001, Mayor Meng Weizhong joined forces with Tian Liang from the 610 Office and police officers Ma Zefeng, Zhou Qingwu, Wei Jianhua and Liu Yuqing from the Xiangcheng City Political Security Department. They abducted practitioners, ransacked their homes, extorted money from them, and forced many of them to abandon their homes and their families.
Following Meng Weizhong's death, his local Discipline Monitoring Department found evidence of his corruption and bribery. Soon afterwards, Meng's son was sentenced to prison for participating in a gang rape. Meng's wife could not handle this series of tragedies. She attempted to hang herself but was rescued in time.
