Liu Chengjun's Father Liu Changtai Passes Away


(Clearwisdom.net) Liu Chengtai passed away on March 28, 2005, less than two years after his son, Liu Chengjun was tortured to death for broadcasting truth clarification videos on cable TV in Changchun City.

Mr. Liu Changtai, 67 years old, lived in Nongan County, Jilin Province. His son Liu Chengjun, 33 years old, broadcasted truth clarification videos about Dafa along with several other practitioners in Changchun City and Songyuan City on March 5, 2002. He was sentenced to 19 years in prison and held at Jilin Prison, where he was savagely tortured. His legs were disabled from torture and he could not walk. After 21 months of nightmarish abuse he passed away at 4:30 a.m. on December 26, 2003 at Jilin University Sino-Japanese Hospital. The authorities cremated his body at 10:40 a.m., despite protests from his family.

Liu Changtai's wife fainted, crying, and Liu Changtai developed an egg yolk-sized blister in his throat that almost suffocated him. The elderly couple's condition didn't improve until after they had received more than 20 days of medical treatment. They were inconsolable.

Liu Changtai wrote a letter to the various levels of the government saying, "I want justice or I will not be able to spend the rest of my days in peace! I just cannot understand how someone who was simply being a good person could be brutally murdered this way. Where is the law and where is justice in this large country? I can't imagine what methods they used to kill my son, as I saw blood coming out of my son's nostrils, ears and thighs. Why?"

After Liu Chengjun was tortured to death, the perpetrators went to his home to monitor and harass his family. Liu Changtai's daughter Liu Lin was arrested by officers from the Beijing City Police Department on December 17, 2004 and was not allowed family visits.
