Mr. Gu Dongying from Tianjin City Dies in 2002 as a Result of Persecution
(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Gu Dongying from the Wuqing
District in Tianjin City died as a result of persecution on March 28, 2002. Mr. Gu was a 62-year-old practitioner from Anbiaofa Village, Dongmajuan Town,
Wuqing District, Tianjin City. He began learning Falun Dafa in 1997 and greatly
benefited from it, both physically and mentally. After the crackdown on Falun
Dafa began, he went to Beijing three times to peacefully appeal for the rights
of Falun Dafa practitioners, all in the year 2000. In December of the same year,
he was reported while distributing pamphlets that revealed the truth about the
persecution of his peaceful practice. Police from the Dongmajuan Police Station
illegally arrested him at his home and detained him in the Wuqing County
Detention Center. During his detention, he courageously refused to go against his conscience by
renouncing his faith in Falun Dafa. Because of this, he was sentenced to two
years in a forced labor camp. Due to his treatment there, his body and mind
suffered greatly. By March 28, 2002, he had become critically ill as a result of
the torture he had received in the labor camp. In spite of emergency
resuscitation he received in the hospital, he passed away. February 18, 2005 Posting date: 3/2/2005 |
