Man Beaten To Death For Refusing Vasectomy

The Epoch Times is reporting that an man in Yunnan has been beaten to death after he refused to comply with birth control regulations.
“Three officials came on July 28, intending to kidnap my father for a forced vasectomy. My father quarrelled with them and was killed in front of our residence. When I got home that day, I found many bruises on his head and legs. The officials fled as soon as they realized my father was dead.”

Officially, the death of the man has been attributed to the accidental ingestion of pesticides, although no explanation has been given for the bruises that member of his family notice on the man's body.
According to the statement, officials found Guo Xingcong crouched down in the yard foaming at the mouth, and he died shortly afterwards. The statement concluded that Guo’s death was caused from ingesting the insecticide dichlorvos.

Unsurprisingly, the statement goes on to say that Guo's family had refused to have the body buried, but was forced through citing concerns over sanitation.

VIDEO: Red Reign Trailer

A trailer for a documentary exploring the the organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners is available online.

Falun Gong, a offshoot of Buddhist Qi Gong, has been illegal since 1992 in mainland China.  "By the late '90s there were more than 100 million practicing Falun Gong members," said director Masha Savitz,"It made [Communist officials] very nervous, and jealous ... the Communist party cannot have people not afraid of them. That’s how they control people."

Savitz follows David Matas, the co-author of Red Harvest, an investigation in forced organ donated using detained Falun Gong practitioners.  The director says that she was motivated to confront the issue "head on" after reporting on a speech made by Matas on the subject.

The Communist Party's refusal to acknowledge the religious group, made it difficult to obtain reliable interviews and information about the extent of the problem in China, so the documentary makers relied on first-hand accounts and personal connections.  The frank and graphic descriptions left her shaken, "I almost couldn't bare it,", she said, talking about the last few days of editing before the film was ready for screening.
