This past weekend, some 100 million people worldwide celebrated their faith in the universal values of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance, marking the 30th anniversary of Falun Gong’s introduction to the public. However, the adherents in China still remain at high risk of being persecuted.
In a disturbing incident, a 74-year-old Chinese man was arrested after police suddenly broke into his home, claiming they wanted to give him a COVID-19 vaccine. He was eventually detained for eight months and persecuted for his faith in Falun Gong before being reportedly declared dead while he was still alive, according to Minghui.org—an all-volunteer organization dedicated to reporting on the suppression of Falun Gong in China.
