On the night of November 28th, 2010 at about 7:00 p.m., head of Yuncheng Village Cao Jiayuan and villager Guo Sandiu deceived Falun Gong practitioner Mr. Guo Jilong into going to the second floor of Yangguang Hotel, using the excuse of asking him to help them purchase a cow in Jialou Town. The second floor turned out to be a 610 Office brainwashing facility (an organisation of special agents just for persecuting Falun Gong), and Mr. Guo was detained for seven days. During his detention, the head of Fenxi County 610 Office, Zhang Junqi, forced him to participate in psychological testing, insinuating that Mr. Guo was mentally ill. They forced him to watch videos attacking Falun Gong and listen to communist propaganda in order to force him to give up his beliefs. Mr. Guo would not cooperate, so Zhang Junqi shouted at him loudly. Officials also forced him to stand for a long time and required him to report to them when going to the toilet. They ended up forcing Mr. Guo into writing a “guarantee statement” to renounce practising Falun Gong against his will before they let him go home.

Those who participated in persecuting Mr. Guo Jilong include Zhang Junqi, head of the Fenxi County 610 Office; Tian Junping, captain of the Fenxi County National Security Team; Cao Jiayuan, head of Yuncheng Village; and villager Guo Sandiu.

Mr. Guo was a healthy and positive person before the persecution, and even this past year he was in good health and active in farming. But after Mr. Guo returned home from the brainwashing centre, he became a different person. He was depressed and did not want to eat or drink. His health became worse and worse. He died three months later, on March 2nd, 2011.

Currently, Guo Jilong's family members are trying to go through legal procedures to establish a criminal case and conduct an investigation into the crimes of Cao Jiayuan, Guo Sandiu, Zhang Junqi, Tian Junping, County Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Secretary Deng Caibiao and County Political and Judiciary Committee Secretary Li Junchang.
