Ms. Chen Yinghua, female, is a resident of Zhejiang Province. On August 8, 2003, the Jiaxing City police arrested her for distributing materials clarifying the truth about Falun Gong. On September 13, 2003, she was taken to a local detention center, where she went on a hunger strike to protest her detention. The guards ordered criminal inmates to hold her down and force-feed her by inserting a tube through her nasal passage and into her stomach. They handcuffed her, shackled her feet, and tied her tightly to a bed. She was not allowed to go to the restroom. After several days of torture, she was unable to walk.

On September 26, 2003, she was sent to the Zhejiang Province Prison Hospital for further force-feeding. She was kept tied to a bed using a special straightjacket and belt, with a tube through her nasal passage and esophagus. If she attempted to pull out the tube, the inmates that were watching her pulled the straightjacket belts tighter. After one force-feeding by an inmate her entire body convulsed with pain and she vomited blood. The authorities ignored this incidence and continued to force-feed her. After she began throwing up dark red blood with a strong odor, the authorities realized that her stomach lining had hemorrhaged because the feeding tube had adhered to her stomach lining. Her blood pressure was extremely low and she was in critical condition. The authorities switched to forcibly injecting her. When she was finally untied from the bed, she was too weak to walk, her face was very pale, and her hands and feet were ice cold. Her arms were swollen and black and blue with bruises. The blood vessels in her legs collapsed, and blood could not circulate properly. They continued to torture her by inserting needles into her bruises.

On October 13, 2003, the authorities permitted Ms. Chen to be bailed out because her brother in Canada exposed her torture to the public. She is awaiting a trial in China.
