Naxi District Sanitary Ceramics Factory Guest House in Luzhou City is a secret prison set up by the Luzhou City 610 Office (an organisation of special agents just for persecuting Falun Gong). They arrest Falun Gong practitioners and hold them there to conduct brainwashing sessions while using torture and violence in an attempt to force the practitioners to give up their belief.
About six unidentified people arrested Ms. Tang Tianmin from her home in the Naxi District around 6:00 a.m. on July 12th, and took her to this brainwashing facility. When Ms. Tang resisted the arrest, the perpetrators beat her. Her arms swelled from being twisted.
Ms. Tang held a hunger strike to protest the 610 Office agents' criminal act. Eight days later, Ms. Tang was carried back home in critical condition.
Since childhood Ms. Tang was in frail health, and for many years lived in excruciating pain from her many illnesses. After practising Falun Gong, all her illnesses disappeared, and her life became happy. Since the onset of the persecution of Falun Gong by the Chinese Communist Party, she has remained steadfast in her belief and did her best to tell people the truth behind the persecution.
Ms. Tang was subjected to two years of forced labour in August 2004 and held in the Nanmusi Women's Forced Labour Camp in Zizhong. She was forced to undergo brainwashing sessions and subjected to all kinds of tortures.
She was again subjected to forced labour in March 2008 with an 18-month term .
