(Clearwisdom.net) It was shocking to hear the news that Falun Gong practitioner Gao Rongrong, a beautiful young woman who had been tortured with electric shocks until her face was severely disfigured, passed away on June 16, 2005 in the emergency room of China Medical University First Attached Hospital in Shenyang City after being tortured again. The Taiwan Falun Dafa Association held a press conference on June 24 in the February 28 Memorial Peace Park to strongly condemn the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP's) murder of Gao Rongrong. Association Director Chang Ching-hsi called on the world's people to pay attention to the inhuman murder, and to condemn and hold Luo Gan and other perpetrators responsible for the crime, and help end the persecution of Falun Gong in China.
In front of the monument in the 2/28 Peace Park symbolizing peace, tolerance and understanding, practitioners' exposing the CCP's persecution caught the attention of visitors and local people.

This Persecution is Real
A young lady from the U.S. who once worked in China said, "I believe this is true. The CCP uses extreme measures in the persecution of human rights. I heard of cases of persecuting people for their belief and felt that it was not safe there. I left after one year."
Photos of Ms. Gao's disfigurement were revealed in the international media, drawing peoples' attention and creating shock and indignation. The CCP was eager to destroy the witness. Under the order of China's 610 Office leader Luo Gan, the Liaoning Province Political and Judiciary Committee, 610 Office, Procuratorate, judicatory and police departments cooperated to block the news about Gao Rongrong and to intensify the persecution in secret. For a short period of time, Ms. Gao was rescued by Falun Gong practitioners, but she was arrested again in March 2005. She died in custody, becoming the 2,584th practitioner documented to have been tortured to death.
Concerning the 610 Office, recently former Chinese diplomat Chen Yonglin and former 610 officer Hong Fengjun in Australia confirmed that the agency was specially set up by former Chinese President Jiang Zemin on June 10, 1999 to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. For 6 years, the office has executed orders related to the persecution of Falun Gong in China. Mr. Hao defected to Australia because his conscience would no longer allow him to carry out the persecution.
A Western visitor carefully folded the flyer exposing the persecution of Ms. Gao after reading it and said, "Never go to China."

Why Do They Want to Do This?
Many passers-by were shocked at the photos showing Ms. Gao's disfigurement, "What's wrong? Why was this beautiful lady tortured so brutally?"
A policeman standing under a tree to observe the press conference said, after accepting the truth-clarification literature, "A lady practicing exercises does not bother anyone. Why was she murdered so cruelly?"
A staff member working in the park administration said to the practitioners applying for a permit to hold the press conference, "Looking at you, I know the practice is good. I don't know why the CCP wants to persecute you"

Don't Become an Accomplice to the CCP's Brutal Persecution of Kind People
Director Wu Hulin of the China Human Rights Association said, "Now everyone is paying attention to China's growing economy, but they are becoming an accomplice of the CCP in the persecution of kind people without realizing it. It is estimated that the CCP uses one fourth of China's GDP on the persecution of Falun Gong. Foreign and Taiwanese business investments are manipulated by the CCP to help continue the persecution of Falun Gong."
Retribution Will Come Soon
A little girl facing upward asked her mom, "How come her face (Ms. Gao's) looks so?" Her mom told her gently, "She was shocked by a group of thugs using electric batons." The girl, touching her face, asked, "Why?" Her Mom answered, "The thugs didn't want to let her believe in Falun Gong. So they damaged her face." The little girl asked again, "Do they know that God will punish those who commit such wrongdoing?" Her mom nodded, "The day will come soon."

Kind-hearted People Join in Calling for the Murderers to be Brought to Justice
Director Ming Chu-Cheng from the Taiwan Association for Rescuing Falun Gong Practitioners Being Persecuted said, "Submission to tyranny is due to fear of tyranny. Many people dare not see the photos of Ms. Gao's disfigurement. The exposure of the CCP's brutal persecution, however, is to help people awaken their conscience and to bring the murderers, who are using the state machine to kill kind-hearted people, to justice."
