Mr. Yu started practicing Falun Gong in 1995 and benefited physically and mentally from the practice. After the persecution was initiated by Jiang and his cohorts, Mr. Yu went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong in June 2000. He was arrested and taken back to his hometown by the village CCP (Chinese Communist Party) leader Qi Baohai and local police officer Li Gang. They extorted 800 yuan from Mr. Yu's daughter without giving a receipt. Mr. Yu was directly taken to the Jinzhou First Detention Center for detention. Later, he was taken to Jinzhou Forced Labor Camp where he was held for fourteen months. He was one of the oldest people in the labor camp. He was released when his health took a turn for the worse, as he had been on a hunger strike protesting the illegal detention. Mr. Yu went to Beijing a second time and was arrested and taken to the Jinzhou First Detention Center where he was cruelly persecuted. In the cold of winter they forced him to sit in the urinal pit where they poured cold water over him. Later he was taken to a labor camp, which refused to take him because of his deteriorating health condition. Mr. Yu did not recover, and suffered edema and could hardly walk. The local CCP staff continued harassing and monitoring him. Due to such pressure, his health and mental condition worsened. Mr. Yu died on September 24, 2006.
Ms. Yang Sukun, 62, was from Heishan County, Liaoning Province. She began practicing Falun Dafa in 1998. She was illegally detained for distributing truth clarification materials.

Ms. Sun Xiurong, 69, was a retired officer from Qingzhou City, Shandong Province. She began to practice Falun Dafa in 1998.

Mr. Su Zhongseng, 84, from Zibo, Shandong Province, suffered from many illnesses and was on medication before he began to practice Falun Dafa in June 1999. Within two months, all his illness had disappeared and he became a kind and pleasant person. He could take care of himself at his age. But government officials began to persecute him and his children (all practitioners). They kept harassing him and forcing him to sign [the three statements]. They illegally arrested his children and the elderly Mr. Su cried and followed them. Police saw it and just said, "Let him follow and cry." His children were taken to the 610 Office. Once night police suddenly broke in to Mr. Sun's home when he was alone at home. They ransacked the home. Their actions scared Mr. Sun so much that he ran out of the house, naked. Neighbors saw him and kindly covered him with a piece of cloth. Mr. Sun died 28 days later, on June 28, 2004.

She passed away on November 28, 2001, without seeing her son before she died.
