Overview
Since Falun Gong was banned July 20, 1999, an estimated 1,000 Falun Gong practitioners have been forcibly detained in mental hospitals. Chinese mental hospitals use various inhumane “treatments” on Falun Gong practitioners, including physical torture, relentless psychological abuse, and the illegal administration of sedatives and anti-psychotic drugs. The police usually place the practitioners into the hospitals by force, although sometimes trickery is used, and do not notify the family members of these incarcerations. The brutal torture that has taken place there has severely disabled many practitioners both physically and mentally.
Falun Gong practitioners have been sent to mental hospitals only because they did not give up practicing Falun Gong, or they went to the government to appeal against the persecution of Falun Gong, or they rejected to defame Falun Gong's founder, Li Hongzhi, as the authorities demanded. They were sent to mental hospitals by the local governments, police, detention centers, work units, or even families, under high pressure from the authorities. Although they were physically and mentally healthy, and all examinations indicated that they were normal, rational people, they were nevertheless treated as mental patients. They have been forcibly injected with drugs against their will. Some of them have been tortured by being electrocuted, force-fed, beaten, and starved.
Daniel B. Borenstein, President of the American Psychiatric Association, wrote a letter to the New York Times entitled “Jailed in China: Confront the Abuse” published March 27, 2001, in which he stated:
The WPA [World Psychiatric Association] Committee on the Use and Abuse of Psychiatry has moved too slowly in the face of serious accusations about psychiatric imprisonment of Falun Gong members, union and student leaders, and others who are diagnosed as “political maniacs” and subjected to shock therapy and psycho-tropic medications.
Below is only a partial list of the Falun Gong practitioners who were sent to mental hospitals:
Shandong Province

Perpetrators:
1. Physicians include Zhang Zheng (Doctor-in-charge), Han Peng (Head of the Department), and Professor Lu, from the Daizhuang Mental Hospital, Jining city, Shandong province
2. Head nurse, Ms. Wang, from the Daizhuang Mental Hospital, Jining city, Shandong province
A Brief Report of the Incident:
On September 11, 1999, because she announced in writing that she would not give up her Falun Gong cultivation practice and refused to sign a “repentance” letter to renounce Falun Gong, police officers, accompanied by doctors and nurses, took Lu Dongmei to the Jining Psychiatric Hospital. One week later, without any psychiatric examination, the hospital staff, pressured by the police department, tried to give Ms. Lu unknown drugs in pill form. She refused to take them because she was a healthy person without any physical or mental illness. Then department Head Han Peng ordered five people to hold Ms. Lu down and injected her with drugs. The doctors gave her another injection two weeks later. She was kept at the hospital for over two months. Ms. Lu described how she felt after receiving the drugs. She felt agitation, which caused her to pace around her hospital room. She found it difficult to fall asleep. She also felt weak and experienced constant leg movements when she was trying to sleep. Her eyes could not focus on any object; she could not concentrate; and one minute of time felt like a day passing by. Later, her neck and arm muscles twisted to one side. She was unable to prevent this from happening.
Due to the efforts of her family and friends, Mrs. Lu was eventually released from the hospital. She was never given any written diagnosis or record of treatment.
Qiao Xingxia was detained for publicly practicing Falun Gong. After seventeen days of detention in the Jining Detention Center, the police and her work unit pressured her family to get her to renounce Falun Dafa. On December 17, 1999, she was taken to the Daizhuang Mental Hospital against her will. While filling out the registration forms, her family had to pay a 2,000 Yuan hospitalization fee and sign an agreement for hospitalization. On her third day in the hospital, the hospital tied her to a bed and started forcibly administering drugs. During the first ten days, they administered one tablet per day, and then two tablets per day. In the end, Mrs. Qiao was detained in the hospital for 22 days.
The hospital claimed that Mrs. Qiao Xingxia was mentally ill though she underwent no examination or test. The hospital never explained their diagnosis or the treatment plan they had for her. Though she refused to take drugs because she was not sick, she was restrained, beaten, and forcibly given drugs, the name of which was unknown to either her or her family. After she was given the drugs, her mouth puckered and was dry and hot; she could hardly control her tongue. She could not stand steadily, nor could she walk. In addition, she felt agitated and she had unbearable pain all over the body. Mrs. Qiao kept kicking her legs and she erratically scratched her body. Her whole body was weak and limp after she was given the drugs. Her memory faded; she had a headache, she became lethargic, and she felt anxious.
Li Fengzhi was detained in the Daizhuang Mental Hospital for over two months for practicing Falun Gong. He could not keep his tongue inside his mouth and was gasping for breath when leaving the hospital. Now he is detained at the Wangcun Detention Center, Jinan city, Shandong province.
Wang Jiming was a worker in the Jining city Hospital for Infectious Diseases. He was detained at the Daizhuang Mental Hospital for more than a month for not giving up practicing Falun Gong.
Shi Shuping was detained at the Daizhuang Mental Hospital for practicing Falun Gong, and later was detained in the Wangcun Detention Center, Jinan city, Shandong province.
Officers from the “610 Office” (a government agency specially set up to persecute Falun Gong and with the authority to override the legal system at every level) and the police station of Jining city sent Ms. Ping to the mental hospital, just because she practiced Falun Gong.
After the Chinese government banned Falun Gong, on July 20, 1999, Mr. Mao's work unit restricted him to the security department of his work unit because he practiced Falun Gong. He was also criticized by the authorities at public meetings, and detained for half of a month. In November 1999, his work unit escorted him to the mental hospital. There he was given electric shock treatments by the hospital staff. He was also forcibly injected with drugs, which impaired his central nervous system. Because of the injection, he couldn't move his body, kept slobbering and couldn't eat by himself. He was released from the hospital six months later at the strong request of his family. Then he was illegally sent to a detention center.

A Brief Report of the Incident:
On November 20, 1999, Practitioner Zhao Huimin, together with a couple (Tian Zhao and Qin Mingying), went to Beijing to appeal against the persecution of Falun Gong. After being arrested and escorted back, the water and the power services to Zhao's home were cut off. Later, against their wishes and the wishes of their family members, Zhao Huimin, Tian Zhao, and Qin Mingying were sent to the Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital by the authorities of Laiyang city and Xizhibo Village. In the hospital, Doctor Li Tao and Doctor Wang forcibly injected them with drugs that could damage their central nervous systems. After receiving injections for eighteen days, the doctors also forced them to take pills. The injections and pills continued until they were released. Zhao Huimin started twitching and foaming at the mouth. The hospital staff ignored these symptoms, and the forced injections continued. The village committee notified the practitioners that they needed to pay for all of their own medical expenses. The officials of Xizhibo Village, Sun Guiqing, Zhang Zhaoyi, Liu Jianhui and Jiang Zhihui, all participated directly in the persecution of the Falun Gong practitioners. They personally sent the practitioners, who had gone to Beijing to appeal for the right to practice Falun Gong, to the Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital.

Location of Detention and Torture:
Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital, Laiyang city, Shandong province
A Brief Report of the Incident:
Before July 20, 1999, the authorities of Sun Minghao's work unit (the Children and Youth Palace in Yantai city), including Qu Fengjia, often pressured Mr. Sun to give up practicing Falun Gong. After July 20, they confiscated his books and illegally detained him for two and a half months, asking him to write a “renunciation” of the practice of Falun Gong.
On Feburary15, 2000, a group led by Qu Fengjia again came to pressure Mr. Sun for a “pledge” that he would not go to Beijing to appeal to the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong. Mr. Sun refused. They then detained him and brainwashed him. To protest such unlawful and inhuman conduct, Mr. Sun started a hunger strike and demanded an unconditional release.
While Mr. Sun was on the hunger strike, his father requested many times to take Mr. Sun home, but each time he was refused. On February 19, 2000, the fifth day of Mr. Sun's hunger strike, Qu Fengjia asked Mr. Sun's parents to sign a paper to send him to a mental hospital. They threatened that if they did not sign, they would send him to a detention center. Qu Fengjia even called in two policemen from the Xinglong Street Police Station to increase the pressure on Mr. Sun's family. Under such intense pressure, Mr. Sun's father signed Mr. Sun into the mental hospital.
In the afternoon, Sun Minghao was dragged out of his room and taken to the Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital by Qu Fengjia, along with the Vice Director of the Children and Youth Palace, Jiang Jiamin, a policeman from Xinglong Street Police Station, and a driver, Chi Hongguo. On the way, Jiang Jiamin said to Mr. Sun several times that they would send him home immediately if he would just write a “pledge” not to go to Beijing to appeal.
In the hospital, Mr. Sun was put in the 6th Ward. They did a series of examinations on Mr. Sun and the result showed he was normal. On the night of February 20, 2000, because Mr. Sun refused to take drugs, the nurse on duty called in several patients to hold him down and tie his hands and feet to the bed. The nurse then forced the tube into his nose, and poured the drugs into him. He felt nauseated and vomited. They did not untie him from the bed until the next day. From then on, the nurse on duty watched him take the drugs every time. They forced the injections into him and threatened that if he did not comply they would tie him to the bed again. To protest this illegal detention, Mr. Sun started a hunger strike. The next day, the hospital staff force-fed him. Several people held him down, so that he could not move. They violently inserted the tube into his nose many times. When they had to pull the tube out in order to re-insert it properly, Mr. Sun threw up food and blood. Then they gave him an intravenous injection. They covered his face with a pillow, pressing down very hard, so he could not breathe. Many people were holding his legs and arms down. Because he resisted the injection, the syringe caused many bloody scratches. He was unconscious for 24 hours after the injection.
Mr. Sun raised the issue, that he had no mental problem and should not be forced to take drugs, to Director Ding and Dr. Wang several times. He told them that it was unlawful for them to force him to take drugs. He requested to see his employer and to be released from the Hospital. They ignored his requests and asked him to give up Falun Gong; otherwise, they said, they would not release him.
As the doses increased again and again, Mr. Sun felt nauseated and vomited; he was also dizzy, distracted, fatigued, and felt an profound discomfort in his heart.
Mr. Sun said it was extremely depressing in the mental hospital and it was harder to endure these mental tortures than the physical abuse. There were over 40 patients in the 6th Ward. During the day, all the patients stayed in one big room. All of the windows had bars on them to prevent the patients from escaping. The entire room was dark and scary because boards covered all but one window. The patients could not go to the bathroom freely. The tableware was dirty and the food was poor.
His employer even notified the hospital that he was not allowed to see any visiting family members. Mr. Sun's parents begged his employer; finally they were allowed to see him once. On March 19, 2000, in response to Mr. Sun's father's strong request, Qu Fengjia sent Vice Director Liu Lumen and Vice Director Wang Yanning to the Hospital. At that time, Mr. Sun had been tied up on the bed for five days. Because of the hunger strike, drug abuse, and physical constraints, he had become weak and skinny. The two vice directors still demanded his written pledge that he would not go to Beijing to appeal. Otherwise, they would not release him. Mr. Sun's parents' strong requests finally resulted in his release. Upon release, he could not stand up straight. He staggered when he walked. The hospital did not issue any medical diagnosis statement or give him any follow up treatment. He was forced to pay for all of the medical costs in the hospital through deductions from his salary and lecture fees paid by his employer, Qu.

7. The Laiyang local government and police, Laiyang city, Shandong province
A Brief Report of the Incident:
Ms. Sun Xiangshu was healthy and had no family history of mental problems. After July 1999, she was forced to quit her job because she practiced Falun Gong. Qu Fengjia, who was the person in charge of persecuting Falun Gong practitioners in the Children and Youth Palace in Yantai city, tried hard to get Ms. Sun to stop practicing Falun Gong. On February 15, 2000, in order to prevent her from going to Beijing to appeal to the central government against the persecution of Falun Gong, Qu, and others authorities illegally detained her. Ms. Sun went on a hunger strike to protest the illegal detention. Ms. Sun refused to write a statement promising not to appeal again. Therefore, on February 19, Liu Shuguan, the secretary of the Yantai Communist Youth League (Ms. Sun's direct superior at the Children and Youth Palace), directed Wang Yangning, the Vice Director of the Children and Youth Palace, a policeman named Wang Yong, and Ms. Sun's father (under pressure), to take Ms. Sun, against her will, to the Yantai Mental Hospital.
Ms. Sun Xiangshu was put into 2nd Ward of the mental hospital. Ms. Sun's routine body test results were normal. She refused any drugs and the chief nurse, together with a few other nurses, held her down on the bed, tried to feed her the drugs, but failed. While in the hospital, Wang Yanting, and Liu Lumin from her work unit, told her they would release her if she guaranteed not to appeal any more, but she still refused to do so. Mr. Jiang, a medical director of the hospital, said that they were under strong pressure from the city government. Whoever was sent there had to receive treatment until they stopped practicing Falun Gong. Because Ms. Sun refused their treatment, they gave her injections by force. Seven or eight people pulled her onto a bed. When another patient asked them not to do this, the chief nurse threatened to tie her up too. They tied Ms. Sun to the bed, gave her an injection, and fed her drugs. Ms. Sun felt very weak after their treatment, and her throat and mouth felt very dry. During the five days she was tied to the bed, she was injected with eight bottles of drugs.
Ms. Sun refused to have the additional checkups that Dr. Jiang requested, so they tied her up for another five days. The hospital refused to discharge Ms. Sun and the other Falun Gong practitioners, even though they made constant requests. Finally, the practitioners began a hunger strike. Dr. Jiang said if they agreed not to go to Beijing to appeal again, he could discharge them, but he would still need their employer's consent. He also threatened to use the electric bed to shock Ms. Sun. Because her parents made a number of strong requests, Ms. Sun was released seven days after she started her hunger strike.
Five Falun Gong practitioners from Laiyang, Li Li, Jiang Jiao, Zhang Yun, Li Ying, and Wang Shiling, were sent to the mental hospital by their local township government just because they practiced Falun Gong, and the local officials were very afraid that they would go to Beijing to appeal.
Three Falun Gong practitioners from Laiyang, Jiang Shuling, Teng Cuijie, and Jiang Shuping, were sent to the mental hospital by the local government and police because they went to Beijing to appeal against the persecution to Falun Gong. The police did not remove Ms. Jiang's handcuffs until they reached the ward.
Mr. Song Hui was sent to the mental hospital because he held a 14-day hunger strike to protest his illegal detention. In the hospital, several nursed dragged Song Hui to where he would receive an injection. After the injection, Song Hui's face became blue.
From February 28 to March 15, 2000, Ms. Sun Yuhua was detained in the 3rd Ward of Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital for 16 days because she wrote a letter to the central leadership of the Communist Party to appeal for her husband, who was illegally fired from his job because of practicing Falun Gong. In the mental hospital, her arms and legs were shackled to the bed for two days and nights. She was forced to take drugs and injections that should have been used only on the mentally ill. She and other Falun Gong practitioners detained in the mental hospital vomited after being force-fed these drugs.
Ms. Ning Shuzhi was sent to the mental hospital only because she wanted to practice Falun Gong. The hospital staff also tried to forcibly give Ms. Ning an injection but failed.
5. Chen Yujie became Weak after an Injection at Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital
Victim:
Chen Yujie, female, employee of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Laixi Branch, Laixi city, Shandong province
Location of Detention and Torture:
Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital, Laiyang city, Shandong province
Perpetrators:
1. Li Tao, Director of the Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital, Laiyang city Shandong province
2. The Staff of the Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital, Laiyang city, Shandong province
A Brief Report of the Incident:
Ms. Chen Yujie was arrested because she went to Beijing twice, in June and July 2000, to appeal to the government to stop persecuting Falun Gong. The local police sent her to the Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital.
The hospital director, Li Tao, told Ms. Chen: “We specialize in treating Falun Gong practitioners.” Since July of 1999, many Falun Gong practitioners had been sent there. Six were present when Ms. Chen arrived.
When Chen was sent to a ward, she saw a female practitioner in her fifties tied to a bed. The woman said, “Nurse, I need to use the restroom.” The nurse ordered, “Do so on the bed!” It happened that this practitioner had refused to receive an injection, so they had restrained her in order to give it to her. Without untying her, the nurse ordered a mental patient to place an urination pot on her bed, loosened her pants, and let her urinate into the pot, while still tied up.
The second day in the mental institute, they started to give Ms. Chen injections. The process of treatment is ten days, and they increased the drug's dose by ten to twenty times more than normal. Under the influence of the drugs, the practitioners could do nothing but eat and sleep. Their eyes' could no longer focus, attention spans weakened, and their arms and legs became weak and numb. By putting them in such a condition, the doctors destroyed Falun Gong practitioners' ability to practice the exercises. Ms. Chen was held there for 45 days.
6. Wang Xingying's Health Severely Damaged after Torture at Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital in Shandong Province
Victim:
Wang Xingying, female, an employee of the Shandong province Sanhuan Lock Manufactory Corp. She lives at 77-10, No. 4 Culture Street, Zifu District, Yantai city, Shandong province.
Location of the Incident:
Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital (also called Laiyang Mental Hospital), Laiyang city, Shandong province
Perpetrators:
1. The Head and staff of the Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital, Laiyang city, Shandong province
2. The Head of the South Street Police Station of Laiyang city, Shandong province
A Brief Description on the Incident:
Because Wang Xingying went to Beijing to appeal against the persecution of Falun Gong, and refused to renounce Falun Gong, the local police substation told her family that she would be sentenced to forced labor for three years. After detaining her for many days in the South Street Police Station of Laiyang city, on March 2, 2000, under a great deal of pressure from the authorities, her company, and her husband, sent her to the Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital at Laiyang city. The hospital has many sections where dozens of Falun Gong practitioners from places like Zifu District and Laiyang city are detained. Ms. Wang was placed on the 2nd Ward. On the second day she was there, the staff tied her to the bed. They forced her to have a transfusion of one full bottle of an unknown drug and two needle injections every day. Ms. Wang received a total of twenty bottles of transfusions and forty needle injections. Everyday she had to take twelve pills, ten of which were sleeping pills. Two nurses would watch her take the pills. Once, the staff forcibly injected electric needles on the heads of all of the Falun Gong practitioners. If she practiced the exercises, she would be tied to her bed. She was beaten, more than once, after which she could not eat; her whole body felt fatigued; both legs bent crookedly and could not be put straight; her upper eyelids drooped so that her eyes only opened halfway; her jaw lost muscle strength so she could only close her mouth halfway; and she became constipated. The worst part was that she couldn't sleep because her feet jerked uncontrollably; standing was very hard, and her legs would always shake when she was sitting or lying down. On March 30, 2000, when her husband came to pick her up, the director would not release her, but seeing her tortured and badly emaciated body, her husband insisted on taking her home. Despite her condition, the director still required her husband to buy five bottles of sleeping pills to force her to take at home. Four days after she got home, her skin turned yellow, her eyes became yellow-greenish, and she vomited. The emergency examination at the hospital showed that all the drugs she had been forced to take had seriously poisoned her liver. Her G.P.T. (i.e., glutamic-pyruvic transaminase) increased by forty more than she had before being imprisoned in the mental hospital.

A Brief Report of the Incident:
Since July 1999, doctors at the Yantai Psychiatric Recovery Hospital in Laiyang city, Shandong province, have been treating and unethically administering drugs to dozens of Falun Gong practitioners. Ms. Xie Shuling was sent there in October 2000. The amount of the drugs administered to practitioners was five times more than the amount given to other patients. They used this method to destroy practitioners' nerve centers and cause serious harm to practitioners both physically and mentally. Some became too weak to walk, some were not able to sleep, some was not able to control the severe shaking in their bodies, etc. Doctor Wang in the hospital said: “We know you are not mentally ill, what we want is to stop you from appealing for the right to practice Falun Gong.” They also overcharged practitioners for their medical expenses.
Around March 10, 2000, practitioner Mr. Sun Yansheng was sent to this mental hospital because he practiced Falun Gong. Yansheng was a worker at the Zhaoyuan Gold Mine. His employer told his family that Yansheng had been sent to a seminar, but he was actually committed to the mental hospital. Gong Yuzhu, the Chief of the hospital, and Ding Yuanlin, director of the 6th Ward agreed to commit Mr. Sun Yansheng to the hospital, even though they were fully aware that he was not mentally ill.
Ms. Wang Weijie was sent to the mental hospital in March 2000. She was forcibly injected and force-fed a large amount of drugs every day, which made her very weak and lethargic.
There were seven female practitioners imprisoned in 2nd Ward, and five practitioners in 3rd Ward. Known practitioners were Ji Yan, Huo Xufen and Wang Jinglun.
8. Dr. Zhou Enguang Detained for Eighty-one Days at a Mental Hospital in Weifang City
Victim:
Zhou Enguang, female, 47 years old, a doctor from Weifang city, Shandong province
Location of Detention and Torture:
The Mental Illness Department of Weifang Rehabilitation Hospital, Weicheng district, Weifang city, Shandong province
Perpetrators:
1. Xu Jian, Secretary of Communist Party Committee of the Health Bureau, Weicheng district, Weifang city, Shandong province
2. Wang Liqun, Secretary of Communist Party Committee of the Immunization Bureau, Weicheng district, Weifang city, Shandong province
3. Liu Zhubin, Chief of the Immunization Bureau, Weicheng district, Weifang city, Shandong province
4. Zhang Xuexian, Head and Physician-in-charge of the Mental Illness Department of Weifang Rehabilitation Hospital, Weicheng district, Weifang city, Shandong province
A Brief Report of the Incident:
On December 8, 1999, Mr. Xu Jian and Mr. Wang Liqun took Dr. Zhou Enguang to the mental illness ward at Weifang Rehabilitation Hospital, because she refused to renounce Falun Gong. At the hospital there was no one representing or speaking on behalf of Dr. Zhou. They demanded that, in order to avoid hospitalization, she sign a letter stating that she would not go to the Appeals Office and that she would stop practicing Falun Gong. Because she refused, Liu Zhubin signed the admission papers without her consent.
There were no admission record and no recoded diagnosis. There was no notification to Dr. Zhou about the results of any diagnosis, any treatment plan, or any drugs to be used in any treatment. There were no records of hospital procedures taken, no records of drugs given, and no record of the reactions and symptoms that followed the administration of drugs. There was no record of when Dr. Zhou was restrained, of the type of equipment used, of how long she was restrained, or of actions taken by attending medical personnel.
Dr. Zhou's family appealed many times to higher officials, including the Director of the Health Bureau of Weicheng district in Weifang city, for her release, but without success. To protest the illegal detention in the mental hospital, her family helped her to escape. Because of this, her husband was illegally detained for two days on the orders of Wang Liqun, Xu Jian and Liu Zhubin. He was locked in a room less than ten square meters in size at the mental ward of the Weifang Rehabilitation Hospital.

A Brief Report of the Incident:
Some Falun Gong practitioners in Jiaozhou city of Shandong province went to Beijing to appeal the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong. The local political and legal committee directed the police department to incarcerate them in the Jiaozhou city Mental Hospital in Jiaozhou city. (The name of the hospital has been changed to “Psychological Rehabilitation Center,” with only mental patients treated there.) The Falun Gong practitioners were tortured in the mental hospital. This torture included forced injections and drugs.
On September 12, 1999, after Ms. Tan Guihua went to Beijing to appeal to the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong, some officers from her work unit and the Politics and Law Commission broke into her home and took her to the mental hospital. The hospital had already prepared a large dose of drugs to inject her with and planned to give Ms. Tan the shot as soon as she arrived. They held her down and gave her the injection. In only a few seconds, she began to feel faint and sick. Her heart started to beat so fast that it felt like it was about to explode. A female doctor asked her every day whether she would continue to practice Falun Gong. Because Ms. Tan always said yes, the nurse shocked Ms. Tan with electric needles. She was shocked a total of 7 times.
She was also force-fed drugs, and given injections, three times a day. The nurse decided to try a new injection whose effects would last for more than one month so that she did not need to give Ms. Tan daily injections. After that injection, her menstruation stopped, her eyeballs could not move and her actions and reaction time became very slow. A few days later, they added another drug to the injection. She started to shake violently all over and could not even hold a bowl. She was tortured like this for 20 days. When her family members picked her up, she was very muddleheaded and could not see things clearly. She lost her memory. Her whole body became swollen. Her eyes looked dull. Her reactions continued to be slow and it took long time for her to say a word.
In July 2000, Ms. Wei Huayu was detained in the mental hospital for four months because she went to Beijing to appeal to the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong. In March 2001, she went to Beijing to appeal again. After she was escorted back from Beijing to Jiaozhou city, she was detained in the mental hospital. She is still there.
In February 2000, Ms. Qiu Yuaner was detained in the mental hospital for two months for going to Beijing to appeal to the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong.
On February 14, 2000, Ms. Kuang Bencui went to Tiananmen Square to appeal to the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong and was arrested and sent to the mental hospital of Jiaozhou city. For two months, Ms. Kuang was treated like a mental patient. She was forced to take drugs and have injections. Two men would grab her arms, while one pinched her nose. They then drove a chopstick between her teeth and force-fed her the drugs. Ms. Kuang was force-fed drugs three times a day with the dosage increasing from one tablet to six tablets at a time. She was detained in the mental hospital for two months and then released to her family members.
On April 25, 2000, Mr. Xu Yanzhong was sent to the Jiaozhou city Mental Hospital in Jiaozhou city for forced treatment. Because he refused to accept the treatment, several people tied him down and forced him to take drugs and have injections. Mr. Xu suffered unimaginable physical and mental mistreatment. After the injections, he suffered weakness all over his body, had difficulty opening his eyes, was nervous and agitated, and was unable to maintain his balance while standing.
On May 13, 2000, Mr. Liu Zhaohong went to Beijing to appeal to the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong and was confined in the mental hospital after he was escorted back to Jiaozhou city.

A Brief Report of the Incident:
On April 22, 2000, Ms. Zhang Cuihua was arrested on her way to Beijing to appeal to the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong. She was then detained in the Xicheng Hotel in Jinan city. The next evening, four policemen came and interrogated her about the details of an experience-sharing conference she had organized, and about a campaign to collect signatures on a letter to the International Human Rights Conference to stop the persecution of Falun Gong. In order to get Ms. Zhang to talk, the policemen slapped her on the face, pulled her hair, twisted her handcuffed hand, burned her hip with the tip of a cigarette, and kicked her head.
On April 25, 2000, Ms. Zhang returned home. The government gave her family a choice. They had to choose between sending her to at least one year in a labor camp, and sending her to a mental hospital. Only after strong pressure from the government, her husband and Ms. Zhang's work unit sent her to the third section of the Third People's Hospital of Weifang city.
Three days later, Ms. Ma Yanxin, another Falun Gong practitioner was sent to the mental hospital because of going to Beijing to appeal to the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong. After strong pressure from the government, Ms. Ma's family sent her to the hospital just three days after she was released from the detention center. Though the examination showed she was normal, the hospital kept her in order to make money from her stay.
Ms. Zhang and Ms. Ma protested their detention with a hunger strike. As a result, they were tied to a bed and force-fed by forcing a tube through the nose to the stomach. Ms. Ma was force-fed four times and Ms. Zhang received force-feedings three times. When the first force-feeding was over, the hospital still kept them tied up. Even when they wanted to go to the bathroom, the nurses refused to release them. They asked another patient to help them urinate with a spittoon, but because their arms and feet were tied to the bed, the urine went all over the bed. The nurses still did not release them, so they had to lie on the wet bed.
Ms. Ma was very healthy before she was sent to the hospital. She changed dramatically after she was forced to take at least twenty pills a day during her 18-day hospitalization. Ms. Ma could not coordinate her arms and feet and had a dry and hard tongue. It was hard for her to open her eyes, and she could not remember things.
The same thing happened to Ms. Zhang. Her hands and feet were shaking, her heart was beating fast, her tongue was dry and hard, and she could not coordinate her arms and feet. She felt dizzy and could not remember things. Because of the drugs' effect on Ms. Zhang's body, it was hard for her to sit or stand. She woke up many times during the night, had severe headaches and could not sleep. When she told the doctor about these symptoms, he just gave her more drugs. Ms. Zhang was detained at the mental hospital for thirty-six days.

A Brief Report of the Incident:
In the period from late June 2000, to late August 2000, 11 Falun Gong practitioners from Shouguang city, Shandong province went to Beijing to appeal to the government to stop the persecution of Falun Gong. After they were arrested by the Beijing police and taken back by the County Government, they were forcibly sent to the Beiluo mental hospital and experienced inhuman torture there for 64 consecutive days.
They were detained with mental patients, and didn't see sunshine for 64 consecutive days. Every day, they endured extreme physical torture. Doctors and nurses tied them to their beds, and injected them with debilitating drugs three times per day. The practitioners were injected with one drug, Dongmianling (hibernation magician), which is supposed to be used only on patients with severe mental illness. They were also given a drug that can damage the central nervous system. After taking this drug, one goes into a drug induced stupor and cannot stand up. The practitioners were unconscious for a long period, and had symptoms of vomiting and nausea. Their faces were swollen and pale. They were badly beaten for refusing to be injected with drugs. To force-feed the drugs, the doctors even inserted pipes into their noses and pried open their mouths and teeth using chopsticks. As a form of punishment, they vigorously moved a chopstick back and forth inside their mouths. Many practitioners' mouths were full of blood. Their family members were not allowed to visit them, and they were isolated from the outside world. These normal people were treated as if they were mentally ill. The doctors even said: “This hospital is the No.2 detention center!”
After miserably torturing the practitioners for 64 days, Beiluo mental hospital extorted 3,000 RMB from each of them. The county extorted 21,000 RMB from practitioner Sang Xiulian. Li Jianmei was sent to a labor camp.
In July 2000, Ms. Liu Hairong, a graduate student at a university, went to Beijing with her mother to appeal to the government to stop persecuting Falun Gong. She was arrested by the police in Beijing and returned to the authorities from the city of Shouguang, Shandong province. She was detained by the police of Shouguang city and later confined in the Beiluo Mental Hospital where she suffered inhuman torture for 64 consecutive days. After the injections, she fell into a state of semi-consciousness and was unaware of her actions. She could not stand up. The drug dosage largely increased after officials from her hometown came to the mental hospital to “visit” her. The university expelled her.

A Brief Report of the Incident:
News Reports:
1. “PLA Officer Drugged in Mental Hospital for Falun Gong Beliefs”, Agence France-Presse (AFP), June 28, 2000
BEIJING, June 28 (AFP) - A People's Liberation Army (PLA) lieutenant general who refused to renounce his beliefs in the outlawed Falungong spiritual movement is being forced to take drugs every day at a mental hospital, a human rights group said Wednesday.
Zhao Xinli is one of more than 400 sane Falungong adherents who have been thrown into psychiatric hospitals in the government's continuing crack down on the group, the Hong Kong-based Information Center for Human Rights and Democracy said.
Zhao, who worked in a military supplies and equipment unit of the PLA, was arrested last month after joining a New Year's Eve protest on Tiananmen Square.
He was placed in a PLA mental hospital in Beijing and injected daily with a drug which harmed his nervous system, leaving him physically weak and muddled, the center said.
An official in the PLA department where Zhao worked confirmed he had been put there because of his affiliation with the Buddhist- based group.
Before the official could answer more questions, his colleague grabbed the phone and said: “We don't have any information to provide.”
Five other PLA members and Falungong believers are also incarcerated at the hospital, the center quoted sources saying.
On Sunday, the rights group and a family member of another Falungong adherent reported the man died after being forced to take medication in an eastern Chinese mental hospital, becoming the 22nd known Falungong -related death due to maltreatment by police.
Su Gang, a computer engineer and college graduate, died on June 10 after receiving twice daily injections for seven days at the Changle Mental Hospital in Changle city, Shandong province, his father, Su Dean, had told by phone.
In the past year, practitioners and human rights groups have reported several cases of practitioners being locked in mental hospitals.
In the biggest case, more than 50 practitioners living in the countryside just outside Beijing were put in a hospital for about a month to keep them from protesting during the return of Macau to Chinese sovereignty on December 20.
The 400 practitioners placed in mental institutions nationwide include mid-ranking PLA officers, judges and police officers, the center said.
Frank Lu, director of the center, believes locking normal Falungong people into mental hospitals is a policy of the central government. The government has considered the movement the biggest threat to social and political stability since the 1989 Tiananmen Square student-led demonstrations.
2. “Report: China Commits Army Officer”, AOL/AP, June 28, 2000
BEIJING (AP) - A Chinese army officer has been committed to a psychiatric
hospital for refusing to renounce his belief in the banned Falun Gong sect, a
rights group said Wednesday.
Lt. Col. Zhao Xinli was sent last month to an army psychiatric hospital in
Beijing where at least five other Falun Gong adherents from the military are
being held, the Hong Kong-based Information Center for Human Rights and
Democracy said.
The group said Zhao took part in a New Year's protest by Falun Gong followers on
Beijing's Tiananmen Square.
