(Minghui.org) A doctor who was married for three months was arrested for speaking out about the persecution of his faith. His wife was dealt another heavy blow when he was sentenced to three years a year later.
Mr. Yao Hao, an anesthesiologist at Dongyang City People’s Hospital in Zhejiang Province, took up Falun Gong not long ago and was arrested at home on January 27, 2021. The police claimed that he was reported for distributing Falun Gong materials on January 20 and located him through the surveillance network.
