(Minghui.org) A Tianzhu County, Guizhou Province resident was secretly sentenced to three years, after she was reported for teaching the two children the Falun Gong exercises. 

Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, is a spiritual discipline with five sets of slow-moving exercises that have tremendous health benefits.

Ms. Yang Xiaohan, in her 60s or 70s, was hired by a family in Kaili City as a nanny for their two children, aged 3 and 5. In her spare time, she taught the two children the Falun Gong exercises and the practice’s core principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance. 

When the children’s parents came home, the children showed the exercises to them. The mother later told her sister about it. The sister, who works for the Kaili City Domestic Security Office, reported Ms. Yang. 

Ms. Yang was arrested and detained incommunicado. Her family was told by Wu Tong, the director of the Domestic Security Office, around August 2021 that Ms. Yang has been sentenced to three years. 

Prior to her latest sentencing, Ms. Yang was arrested on July 7, 2002. The police confiscated her Falun Gong books and 150 yuan in cash. She was given three years of forced labor 18 days later. 

At the Bazhong Forced Labor Camp, where many Falun Dafa practitioners were detained, Ms. Yang was subjected to brutal torture and brainwashing. She was once forced to stand for an entire day and sometimes worked 18 to 20 hours a day without pay. 

Ms. Yang was arrested again on March 21, 2010 for distributing Falun Gong informational materials and held at the Tianzhu County Detention Center.
