Yang Rong, male, Zhengpin County, Hebei Province

(Clearwisdom.net) In order to stop Falun Gong practitioners from appealing in Beijing, officials in Zhengpin County, Hebei Province forced the Falun Gong practitioners to undergo brainwashing. This activity began at the end of 2000 and has lasted for more than half a year. The practitioners were brainwashed and tortured, and forced to renounce their faith in Falun Dafa, which severely violates the practitioners' human rights and caused serious damage to them, both physically and mentally. Practitioner Yang Rong passed away within in a month after having been brainwashed. Everybody in the village knew that Yang Rong almost died before practicing Dafa. His family had even prepared the flowers for the funeral. After practicing Falun Dafa, his body was completely purified and recovered. However, he passed away shortly after being brainwashed. It is not hard to image what kind of tortures he suffered, both physically and mentally, during the brainwashing period.
