(Minghui.org) It has been 16 years since former Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leader Jiang Zemin and his regime launched the persecution of Falun Gong in 1999. Since then, innocent Falun Gong practitioners in China have been tortured in labor camps, prisons, and detention centers. Thousands have died as a result of torture, and many were killed and had their organs harvested for profit.
In both Western and Chinese culture, the principle of karmic retribution, that is, being held ultimately accountable for one's own actions, is widely accepted. In other words, good deeds will be rewarded with good fortune, while evildoing will meet with its due.
The following is meant to serve as a compassionate reminder of the principle that whoever does evil will eventually be held responsible for their actions.
Based on information received by Minghui since July 20, 1999, at least 446 people who participated in persecuting Falun Gong in the Shijiazhuang area have met with ill fates. Some 100 of their family members have also had tragedy befall them. They are government officials, employees of executive organs, authorities in government enterprises, and others.
