Elderly Falun Dafa Practitioner Mr Zhang Sixi from Ningxia Province Dies as a Result of Persecution Mr. Zhang Sixi, 58 years old, was from Heping Village, Ningxia Province. In March 2000, he went to Beijing to appeal and was arrested. He was then sentenced to 2 years of forced 're-education through labour' and detained in Baidugang Forced Labour Camp. During his detention, he refused to renounce his belief, and as a result, the police extended his term for half a year. In July 2003, he was arrested again for distributing materials telling the truth about the persecution of Dafa. This time, he was sentenced to three years and detained at Guanmahu Labour Camp. In February he suddenly had a stroke due to the long-term torture. The labour camp feared he might die in the camp, so they sent him home. He passed away on August 21, 2004.
