She was arrested and detained in the town government office. Practitioner Lu Jingzhi was arrested at the same time. Lu Jingzhi's home had been ransacked a long time ago, and her husband was sentenced to forced labor. The officers also took 2,700 yuan that belonged to her children.
Because she remained steadfast in cultivation, Sun Xueying suffered brutal beatings by scoundrels led by the town political head, Li Baolin. Li viciously slapped her in the face. He ordered others to hold her down on the floor and beat her buttocks with a hard rubber baton. Sun Xueying was not allowed to sleep or eat. If she fell asleep, they would beat her. Sun was tortured for one whole day and night. The next day, she was sent to the brainwashing center again, where she was beaten so badly that it was hard to recognize her face. For more than ten days, she couldn't sleep on her back, and the swelling on her face lasted more than half a month. When Sun Xueying suffered the brutal beating, the politic head, Li Baolin, also gathered 78 people in the town who practiced Falun Gong. They were not allowed to go home or eat. The scoundrels tried to force them to slander Master and Dafa. If they refused, they were beaten; many people sustained bloody noses and swollen faces. Four hundred yuan was extorted from each of them.
Sun Xueying was detained in the brainwashing center for four months. After going on a hunger strike for four days, she was sent back to the town government. Sa Yuanfeng tried to force Sun Xueying to slander Master and Dafa. She refused to do so, so they cuffed her hands to a pole and beat her hands, back and buttocks with rubber batons until she lost consciousness.
