The Situation of Dafa Practitioner Li Jingdong's Orphans Li Linghong and Li Xinggang in Pingdu City, Shandong Province

October 16, 2004 |   By a practitioner in Shandong Province

(Clearwisdom.net) Li Linghong and Li Xinggang from Changling Village in Yunshan Town, Pingdu City, Shandong Province, are the orphans of practitioner Li Jingdong, who was persecuted to death. Before Mr. Li Jingdong learned about Falun Dafa, he had various diseases and was very thin. Because his family was so poor, his wife left him. After he started practicing Falun Dafa, all of his illnesses quickly vanished.

Li Linghong, Li Jingdong's daughter, is 16 years old. She attends Yunshan Town Central Middle School in Pingdu City, Shandong Province. Telephone: 86-532-346827.

Li Xinggang, his son, is 19. After graduating from the junior middle school, he now works somewhere away from home.

Home address: Changling Village, Yunshan Town, Pingdu City, Shandong Province, zip code: 266745.

Li Linghong and Li Xinggang's father Li Jingdong, 41 years old, began to cultivate and practice Falun Gong in 1998. All of his diseases suddenly disappeared, and he became a healthy person. In the fall of 2001, Mr. Li, along with his elder sister and her 15-year-old son, went to the government in Beijing to appeal on behalf of Falun Dafa. They were all illegally arrested. The police beat him with a leather belt. After being detained in Beijing for two days, he was handcuffed and sent back to the local police station in Yunshan on November 6. Mr. Li was handcuffed to a tree and left there for over 10 days and suffered from inhumane torture. In order to protest the persecution, he went on hunger strike. He endured insults, beatings and being kicked. At night he was handcuffed to the leg of the bed and was not allowed to sleep. The police shocked him with electric batons. He was tortured almost to death and then transferred to Pingdu Police Station. Not long after, he was persecuted to death, leaving behind two children and a 79-year-old mother.
