A Brief Report of the Incident:

Lin Guoxiong graduated from the First Medical University of the Army in 1997 and was offered a job in the university network center due to his excellent achievements in his field. Because of his refusal to give up Falun Gong, Lin Guoxiong was sent by the University to the Psychiatric department of No. 181 Hospital of the Army in Guilin city of Guangxi province. He was detained and tortured there from September 1999 to February 2000.

After his release from the mental hospital, he wrote a letter to the government for the repeal of the ban on Falun Gong. This irritated the University authority and he was detained for over two months again at the University.

Since May 2000, because he withdrew his “pledge” letter to give up Falun Gong that he had written under pressure, he was sent to the hospital for the second time. Because the doctors from Guangzhou Fangchun Mental Hospital issued a so-called Diagnosis Certificate claiming that he had “mental problems,” he has suffered severe abuse and mistreatment by the staff up to the present time.
