Zhang Zhiyou 10.06.2000
ZHANG Zhiyou, male, 45 years old, lived in Yuhe County, Weicheng District of Weifang City, Shandong Province. Both he and his wife are Falun Dafa practitioners. The couple took good care of their parents and was always happy to help others, which earned them a good reputation in their village.
On July 21, 1999, the couple was taken to the county government because they went to Beijing to appeal. They were brutally beaten and were forced to pay 1,700 yuan. In October of 1999, while his wife, Li Lingyun went to Beijing to appeal again, the county government officials dragged ZHANG to the judicial office, and then cruelly beat him for an entire day.
In April of 2000, Li Lingyun once again went to Beijing to appeal. After she was escorted back to Weifang, the county government officials beat her so cruelly that she lost consciousness. The thugs didn’t want to bear the responsibility if she should die, so they asked a Falun Dafa practitioner to take her home on a tricyle. ZHANG Zhiyou hid himself away from his home for a month. However, he was still unable to escape adversity after he returned.
He was so badly beaten by the county government officials that his whole body was bruised. He still felt pain and pressure in his chest two months later, and the suffering was so unbearable that he could hardly breathe. The couple was forced to pay 8,000 yuan as a fine. They borrowed money from all around, and thus their life became extremely difficult.
On October 4, 2000, they once again went to Beijing to appeal. On October 5, they were deceived by a plainclothes policeman at a corner in Tiananmen Square, and then were transferred to the Weifang agency in Beijing. Early on the morning of October 6, on their way back, ZHANG Zhiyou clearly knew that even if he were not beaten to death, he would be subjected to severe torture after being sent back to Yuhe County.
Therefore, Zhang Zhiyou decided to return to Beijing to appeal for the innocence of Falun Gong. When the train reached Cangzhou, practitioner ZHANG, along with four other practitioners, jumped out of the window of the train while the policemen were fast asleep. ZHANG Zhiyou died. His body was forcibly cremated in Cangzhou on October 8.
Reuters, AFP, the Central News Agency and the World Times reported the case on October 18 or 19, 2000.
