However, since the suppression of Falun Gong by the CCP began on July 20, 1999, Mr. Zhu suffered tremendously both mentally and physically. He could no longer live a normal life, and was arrested and taken to brainwashing classes twice. As a result, Mr. Zhu had a relapse of his old illness and passed away on June 6, 2005.

Ms. Huo Shuwen was a 40-year-old Falun Gong practitioner from Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province. She came across Falun Dafa in July 2002 at the Harbin Wanjia Forced Labor Camp as a prisoner there. After witnessing the miracle of Dafa and the persecution of Dafa disciples, she resolutely decided to learn the practice and to expose the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in the Wanjia Forced Labor Camp. Ms. Huo verified how practitioners Ms. Liu Limei and Ms. Fu Guilan were tortured to death there. Because she too practiced Falun Gong, she was subjected to persecution there as well, leading to heart disease. When her term was up in June 2004, it was too late for treatment and she died on July 2, 2005.

Because Ms. Xin suffered tremendously physically and mentally, she died on April 30, 2005. During her illegal detention period, her daughter Wang Juan was persecuted to death at the Mancheng County Prison in Hebei Province for continuing to practice Falun Gong.
