The Yihuang self-immolation incident () occurred on 10 September 2010 in Yihuang County, Fuzhou, Jiangxi, China. Government authorities with demolition workers came to the home of the Zhong family. Ye Zhongcheng () and two family members climbed to the roof and burnt themselves in protest. Ye died later. 〔("China: Yihuang Self-Immolation Incident and the Power of Microblogging." ) Global Voices 21 September 2010 Accessed 15 November 2010.〕 == History == The Zhong family lived in a three-story house. Several of the family were at home at the time of the incident. They included Luo Zhifeng and her husband; his brother, Ye Zhongcheng and the couple's six children, Zhong Ruman , Zhong Rucui , Zhong Rukui , Zhong Ruqin , Zhong Rujiu and Zhong Rutian (who was not at home). The house was held under three licenses belonging to the three brothers, Zhong Rukui, Zhong Rutian and Zhong Ruman. The father had a chronic lung disease diagnosed in 2007 and used a medical ventilator. On 18 April 2010, the family's electricity was cut off and so they purchased a petrol powered generator.〔("媒体详述江西宜黄拆迁自焚事件始末." ) 新浪/三联生活周刊 1 October 2010.

The Yihuang Investment and Development Company gave the Zhongs two options: monetary compensation or another house some sixty meters away. It was claimed the Zhongs refused both options and responded with demands to rebuild on site, exchange the site of their home for 480 m2 land in four parcels or three million yuan in compensation. This they denied.〔"On the fact of the one of a to-be-demolished family in Yihuang that carelessly burned himself by gasoline."

They said they needed to enter the house to check the gasoline supply. When Zhong Rucui asked for a search warrant, the officials said they didn't need one as it was a potential emergency. The Zhongs locked their door. Several minutes later, the police broke the door down and entered the building. Ye Zhingcheng and two others went to the roof and burnt themselves with gasoline.〔("江西抚州强拆致3人自焚 现场警察拒绝救援." ) 环球网/解放牛网 13 September 2010 Accessed 15 November 2010.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yihuang self-immolation incident」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
