(Minghui.org) Editor's note: In both Western and Chinese culture, the principle of karmic retribution, that is, being held ultimately accountable for one's own actions, is widely accepted. Stated another way, good deeds will be rewarded with good, while evildoings will meet due retribution. Articles such as this one are meant as a compassionate reminder of this principle to those who would commit wrongdoing. While many of those who persecute Falun Gong are merely "following orders," the universal law requires that they too be held responsible for their actions, and that only by reversing their course of wrongdoing may they escape retribution.
This article reports on 18 death cases of police officers or government officials who persecuted Falun Gong practitioners in Dandong City, Liaoning Province. In addition to these, there are many more cases of persecutors who have become ill, were injured or were sentenced to prison because of corruption or internal political struggles.

Wei Diandong (魏殿东), as president of the Dadong Court, sentenced four Falun Gong practitioners to prison in 2008 based on falsified evidence. When asked by the practitioners' families why he did not inform the families of their loved ones' trials and did not hold a public trial, Wei shouted, “Go ahead and sue me. You will not win wherever you go!” In March 2009, Wei Diandong died from colon cancer.

Zhang Wei (张伟) was the security director of Tucheng Village. Working with Lu Zhusheng (卢祖生), head of Tucheng Village (see above), he constantly harassed and tried to force practitioner Wang Xuezhong to give up his belief, eventually leading to Mr. Wang's death. Two years after Wang Xuezhong died as a result of persecution, 40-year-old Zhang Wei drowned when he was bathing in a river.
