(Clearwisdom.net) Around 2002, police from Weicheng District, Weifang City, Shandong Province abducted a female Falun Dafa practitioner and took her to the Weifang District Detention Center in Weifang City. This practitioner, who spoke with a Sichuan Province accent, refused to cooperate with the persecution. She refused to tell the police her name and address and went on a hunger strike to protest against this illegal persecution. The inhuman police knew that the practitioner had heart disease, yet they still tortured her by brutally force-feeding her. After 13 days of being on a hunger strike, this practitioner passed away unjustly, in a place far away from her hometown. Her family might not even know about her death.
