The Jiang regime started suppressing Falun Gong on July 20, 1999. On March 3, 2000, Ms. Huang went to Beijing to appeal for the right to practice Falun Gong. She was arrested and detained at the Beijing Office of the Panzhihua Steel Company for four days. She was then taken back to Panzhihua and detained at the Wanyaoshu Detention Center for 30 days.

In February 2009, the Renhe District Police Sub-Bureau called and demanded Ms. Huang to fill out a form. Her son went there instead, fearing that her mother might be arrested. The son was threatened and forced to pay 2,000 yuan to the police.
On June 10, 2009, a group of officers from the Panzhihua 610 Office, the Qingxiangping Police Station and the Dahuadi Police Station led by Cui Fuli, chief of the Domestic Security Division of the Renhe District Police Sub-Bureau, broke into Ms. Huang's home and ransacked it.

On November 19, 2009, the Xi District Court in Panzhihua sentenced Ms. Huang to four years in prison. Ms. Huang made an appeal, but the Middle Court upheld the first trial's sentence.

It resulted in blindness in both eyes after 14 days. The doctor still charged Ms. Huang 865 yuan for the medicine. He also tried to dodge his responsibilities, saying that her blindness was due to her age.
