Minghui.org recently confirmed the deaths of two Falun Gong practitioners.
The first death was Ms. Liu Guizhi of Gongzhuling City, Jilin Province. After Ms. Liu’s husband, Mr. Yuan Qingshan, was arrested on September 9, 2023, for practicing Falun Gong, the police kept harassing her and her family. Having being persecuted in the past for her faith in Falun Gong, the mental pressure, fear, and anxiety from the ongoing harassment caused her health to quickly decline. She passed away in June 2024 at the age of 70. Weeks after her death, on July 8, 2024, Mr. Yuan was released from the Gongzhuling City Detention Center.
The second death was Ms. Xie Changchun of Guanghan City, Sichuan Province. Shortly after she finished serving a one-year term in the Sichuan Province Women’s Prison on April 19, 2024, she had sharp pain on the left side of her abdomen. Her skin turned dark and she became emaciated. She passed away four months later on August 12. She was 80. Her family suspected that she was given toxic drugs while in the prison.
Prior to her last prison term, Ms. Xie was arrested multiple times and had her home ransacked for talking to people about the persecution of Falun Gong.
