Mr. Fang Zhengping Dies in Prison in Xichang, Sichuan, after His Seventh Arrest

Having survived a brutal childhood amidst the Cultural Revolution, learning Falun Gong had enabled Mr. Fang to finally move beyond the pain. The dark clouds returned when the persecution of Falun Gong began in 1999. Spending eight out of the last fourteen years in jail for his belief, he could no longer endure the relentless torture and died in prison at age 57.
