He was later sentenced to two years in a forced labour camp for sharing important facts about Falun Gong. He once suffered from the brutal torture of being force fed for several months because he had protested being thrown into a forced brainwashing facility for practising Falun Gong. He was at the brink of death several times because he went on hunger strikes as a non-violent means to protest his unconstitutional incarceration. Not long ago, while he was connected to IV fluids and an oxgen tank, a group of medical staff took him to court for a sham trial because he had practised Falun Gong; yet he appeared in court, dignified. -
