(Clearwisdom.net) On October 24, 2002, several Dafa practitioners from Emaokou, Huairen County, Shuozhou City, Shanxi Province went to the provincial government building to post truth clarification materials and were arrested at 9:00 a.m. At 4:00 p.m. of the same day, four Dafa practitioners, Yang Yanying, Zhang Aihua, Li Meilan and Xing Yindi, were tortured to death by vicious police with electric batons. Three Dafa practitioners, Shi Suping, Wang Mingxia and Wang Yingxiang, were illegally sentenced to 15 years in jail. Of the four practitioners who were tortured to death, two of the bodies were bought with 10,000 Yuan each by their family, one was bought with 8,000 Yuan and the whereabouts of the other body is unknown. Even after the police tortured Dafa practitioners to death, they didn't even allow the families to take their beloved ones' bodies, and had to buy them. The provincial police bureau sent police to monitor the situation, block information about the persecution and threatened the practitioners' families.
