Two Female Dafa Practitioners from Provinces of Jilin and Hunan Verified to Have Died of Torture in 2002 (Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Zhang Junhua from Jilin Province Tortured to Death Zhang Junhua was from Yujia Village, Qingshan Township, Yushu City, Jilin
Province. After she started to practice Falun Gong 1995, she turned from a sick
person suffering from various illnesses to a healthy woman. On December 17, 2000, she went to Beijing with several older practitioners to
appeal. They were arrested in Tiananmen Square. In January 2001, Zhang was sent back to Yushu City Detention Center. The
police from the political security section brutally beat her, leaving wounds all
over her body. After she returned to her cell, she had difficulty catching her
breath. She passed out twice. After she regained consciousness, she said she
felt sharp pain in her internal organs, which was a result of the police's
brutal beating. On January 5, 2001, the police extorted 1,500 yuan from the six older
practitioners including Zhang Junhua, on top of the 2,000 yuan already extorted
from them as so-called food expenses, before finally releasing them. After Zhang Junhua returned home, she never recovered from the tremendous
damage to her body and mind the torture brought her, passing out several times.
She passed away in early 2002. Ms. Chen Yumei from Hunan Province Tortured to Death Chen Yumei was a practitioner in her 50's who lived in Group Four, Huangzhou
Village, Chashanao Town, Zhuhui District, Hengyang City, Hunan Province. She
used to suffer from various illnesses and had edema all over her body. She was
bedridden all year long and could not perform any physical labor. After she took
up the practice of Falun Gong in 1996, her edema disappeared, and she soon
recovered and was able to work. In June 2000, she went to Beijing to appeal and
was arrested. She wasn't released until the police extorted 2,000 yuan from her.
On the night of January 19, 2001, Chen was arrested at home by police from
the Yuanjiao District Police Station and the Chashan Police Station. They took
her to the Baishazhou Drug Rehabilitation Center. During detention, Chen was
tortured to the point of spitting blood. Her health deteriorated. Not wanting to
take the responsibility should she die, the police released her in late March
2001. Due to the severe damage done to her body from the torture and abuse, she
passed away in June 2002. Zhuhui District Police Branch:
