Mr. Wang Defeng, 37 years old, was a resident of Houxiawazi, Handian Town,
Shuangcheng City, Heilongjiang Province. He used to suffer from tuberculosis and
had severe problems with his lungs. In 1996, he started to practice Falun Gong.
All of his illnesses went away shortly afterwards.
After Jiang's regime started to persecute Falun Gong in July 1999, Wang went
to Beijing many times to appeal. He also wrote letters to provincial and central
government officials, telling them about the benefits Falun Gong had brought
him. In 2000, Wang went to Beijing to appeal and was arrested. He was taken back
to Shuangcheng Detention Center, where he was jailed for several months. The
police did not release him until they extorted over 2,000 Yuan from his family
(the average monthly income of a Chinese worker is 500 Yuan).
On a summer night in 2001, police from Handian Police Station and the
"610 Office"* broke into Wang's home and took him away while he was
sleeping, not even allowing him to put on his coat. Wang was jailed and tortured
in the Shuangcheng City Detention Center. He was not released until he was near
death. Mr. Wang passed away on June 30, 2002.
When called, a policeman from Handian Police Station said that Wang Defeng
died of tuberculosis around July of the previous year. The police station's
phone number is 86-451-53230407.
*The 610 Office is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong,
with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other
political or judicial systems.
