1. [Shenzhou City, Hebei Province] A Seventy-Year-Old Man Dies from Persecution

Hao Junwei was a 70-year-old man from Guozhuang Village, Bingcao Township, Shenzhou City. After he started to practice Falun Gong, he benefited greatly both physically and spiritually. After the persecution began on July 20, 1999, when he went to Beijing to appeal on behalf of Falun Dafa, he was detained for two months. In September 2001, he and his son were illegally arrested at the same time. He was forcibly taken to a brainwashing class and detained there for two months. During the detention, the barbaric scenes in the brainwashing class (the sounds of beatings, swearing, cries and screams) seriously harmed the elderly man's spirit. He wasn't released until he suffered a mental breakdown. After that, the local "610 Office" [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 and judiciary systems] continued to harass and pressure him at home. He died in October 2002.
