Inner Mongolia Man Dies One Day after Being Tried for His Faith

June 13, 2021 |   By a Minghui correspondent in Inner Mongolia, China

(Minghui.org) A Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, man died one day after he and his wife stood trial for their faith in Falun Gong, a spiritual discipline that has been persecuted by the Chinese communist regime since 1999.

Mr. Guo Zhenfang’s family received a call from the police on the evening of June 9, 2021, and was told that he had died. They rushed to the hospital and saw dozens of plainclothes officers guarding his body. They noted that his lower back was purple, there were injuries on the inner side of one of his knees, and his nose had blood on it. They tried to look more carefully, but the police barred them from getting any closer to the body.

One doctor at the hospital revealed that Mr. Guo had no vital signs when the police brought him in.

Without his family’s consent, the police had Mr. Guo’s body taken to the Songshan District Funeral Home shortly after.

Just one day before his death, Mr. Guo and his wife Ms. Feng Yuhua were tried in the Songshan District Court. According to his family members who attended the hearing, they saw him jump out of the police car and walk into the courtroom. He appeared to be very healthy.

While the authorities didn’t provide any explanation for his death, his family strongly suspects that he was tortured to death in the Songshan District Detention Center.

This was the second time that Mr. Guo and his wife had appeared in court. Their first hearing on April 8, 2021, was adjourned quickly after the judge ordered the prosecutor to re-evaluate certain evidence against the couple. Another hearing scheduled for May 19 was later canceled and moved to June 8.

The couple was arrested on the morning of November 25, 2020. The police ransacked their home in the afternoon and confiscated many of their personal belongings. The Songshan District Procuratorate indicted them soon after receiving their case from the police.

In the past year, the authorities in Chifeng have been actively persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. According to available information collected by Minghui.org, at least 97 practitioners were arrested, harassed, and/or detained between January 2020 and December 27, 2020.

Wang Bing, the head of Yuanbaoshan District Political and Legal Affairs Committee, an extra-judiciary agency tasked with overseeing the persecution, ordered brainwashing sessions to be set up for local Falun Gong practitioners in an attempt to force them to renounce Falun Gong.
