A Qiyang City, Hunan Province resident passed away three months after she was released from serving an 11-month term for practicing Falun Gong. Ms. Wang Shuangfeng was 55.
Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, is a spiritual discipline that has been persecuted by the Chinese communist regime since 1999.
Ms. Wang took up Falun Gong in August 1998. Many of her ailments, including tuberculosis and spine issues, soon disappeared. She was full of energy and able to do household chores without any trouble. She said that practicing Falun Gong helped her understand the meaning of life and changed her bad tempter.
For distributing informational materials about Falun Gong to raise awareness about the persecution, Ms. Wang and several other practitioners were arrested on June 22, 2015 and held at the Hengyang City Women’s Detention Center. Due to her health condition, she was soon released on bail. The Hengyang City Court scheduled a hearing of her case in late 2015, but she didn’t go.
Ms. Wang was arrested again on March 26, 2016 while putting up posters about Falun Gong. She was taken to the Hengyang City Women’s Prison two days later.
Ms. Wang was later sentenced to eleven months. She was tortured, held in solitary confinement and injected with toxic drugs while at the Hengyang City Women’s Prison. The torture and drug administration caused severe vision problems for her. She was released ten days before the end of her term and passed away three months after her release.
