(Clearwisdom.net) Mr. Di Zhenjin, 78, was a Falun Gong practitioner in Kuancheng County, Hebei Province. He had previously suffered a stroke and was very frail in health. He quickly regained his health after practicing Falun Gong in March 1997. He did not feel tired after working, and felt like a young man again. After the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and Jiang's regime started persecuting Falun Gong on July 20, 1999, the police often broke into and ransacked his home, confiscating Falun Gong books and harassing him and his family. Di Zhenjin persisted in clarifying the truth to people and validating the Fa. In May 2002, around a dozen deputies from the Kuancheng County Public Security Bureau and the Tangdaohe Township Police Station suddenly broke into his house, ransacked the rooms, seized the books and truth clarification materials, and arrested Zhenjin, taking him to the township police station for interrogations. They detained him at the detention center afterwards for further torture. Zhenjin suffered severe mental duress, followed by abdominal pain and blood in his stools. Under constant harassment, surveillance and coercion, he died on July 21, 2005.

Ms. Zhou Shuying, 84, lived at #124 building, The Jiangdong District 165th Hospital of Hengyang City, Hunan Province. She suffered from seven ailments, including high blood pressure and heart disease, among other symptoms. After she started practicing Falun Gong in June 1998, all of her illnesses disappeared.

They were abducted by the police while they spoke out for Falun Gong on Tiananmen Square. After they were released her daughter was abducted and taken again to the brainwashing class for an entire year, and Ms. Zhou lost her cultivation environment. Later, on many occasions, her daughter was arrested and taken to the local detention center, and the 610 Office officials at the Zhuhui District Police Station ransacked her home and confiscated all her Dafa books, lectures and practice tapes. Under these ordeals and high pressure persecution tactics her old ailments recurred. She died on May 12, 2003.
