According to various sources, within the three and a half years since July 20, 1999, 564 practitioners of Falun Gong have been verified as having been tortured to death; these cases span across 30 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities. However, according to internal government statistics, the actual death toll had reached 1,600 by the end of 2001.

This has caused widespread concern in the international community.
