(Clearwisdom.net) On the afternoon of July 22, 1999, CCTV broadcast the decision by Jiang's
group of political scoundrels to persecute Dafa. The program featured a man named Liu Pinqing, who
used to be the head of a farm machinery business in Gushan Township, Donggang City, Shandong
Province. The announcer said during the program that Liu Pinqing committed suicide by throwing
himself into a well after he "practiced" Falun Gong.
According to people in the know in his local area, Liu Pinqing had lost more than 100,000 Yuan in
his business. In addition, he and his wife had been on very bad terms and as a result had been
separated for a long time. Under such circumstances, Liu suffered severe mental torment. At that
time someone introduced Falun Gong to him. He read the book, but he never took up the practice.
According to the local people who knew him well, he was not a Falun Gong practitioner at all. Mr.
Liu developed a mental disorder because of the extreme adverse circumstances his family suffered,
and that was the real reason he committed suicide.
