(Clearwisdom.net) In 2000, Ms. Chen Haiyan, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Nanjing, was arrested for going to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa. She was unlawfully detained in a forced labor camp and was persecuted by the Nanjing Public Security Bureau.
After she was released from the forced labor camp, in order to stop Ms. Chen from going to appeal to other relevant departments about the facts regarding Falun Gong, the Nanjing "610 Office" (1) and the Public Security Bureau threatened Ms. Chen Haiyan's relatives. They informed them that they were going detain Ms. Chen at the Nanjing Mental Hospital for four months with the excuse that she was mentally abnormal. During the period of time that Ms. Chen was tortured at the mental hospital, she told people who went to visit her that for a normal person to be jailed at a mental hospital, the suffering is greater than to be tortured in a jail, since she was forced to stay all day long with the mental patients and was treated by the doctors as a mental patient.
Ms. Chen Haiyan was later handed a heavy sentence for clarifying the truth and she is now illegally imprisoned at the Nantong Prison in Jiangsu Province.
(1) The "610 Office" is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems.
