Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Sun Peijie, former head of the Zhangpan Township Civil Administration Bureau in Xuchang County, Henan Province, was sentenced to four years in prison in 2001. He was tortured to the brink of death at the Xinmi Prison in Zhengzhou City, and he passed away on August 19th 2005.

Sun Peijie was 39 years old. He was cured of pleurisy and other illnesses after he started practising Dafa in early 1998. He went to Beijing twice to appeal for justice for Dafa after the persecution began in 1999 and returned safely from both trips.

In November 2001, Sun Peijie was reported when distributing leaflets exposing the persecution in the street. He was sentenced to four years in prison, and was held and tortured at the Xinmi Prison in Zhengzhou City. During the detention he resisted the persecution by refusing to wear an inmate's uniform and refusing to follow the perpetrators' orders. He held a hunger strike and was held in solitary confinement at length, during which time he was savagely tortured.

The prison authorities told his family to take Sun Peijie home when he was skin and bones and showed symptoms of severe illness. He passed away on August 19th 2005.
