The Red Cross Mental Hospital in Pengzhou City, Sichuan Province has illegally detained Falun Gong practitioners since 2000. In August 2002, over twenty Falun Gong practitioners were illegally detained at the city detention center. They conducted a group hunger strike to protest the illegal detention. The police transferred over ten of them to the mental hospital where they received forced injections of three bottles of salt water per day. If the practitioners refused the injections, they were injected with drugs. After the prolonged torture, the practitioners' bodies became very weak. Seeing that they were close to death, they added a few vitamins to the forced injections. Later, they were brutally force-fed. The chief of the mental hospital Yang Xianrong, his wife Liao Mingfang, and his relative Liu Jun, collaborated to tie Dafa practitioners to the bed. Nurse Sun Li and Song Ying, assisted them to insert the tubes into the nose to pour the food in, often causing bleeding in the nose and mouth. Furthermore, they left the tubes inserted for prolonged periods of time, and when the tubes were removed they were black.

Currently the following Falun Gong practitioners are still detained in the mental hospital:

Diao Xiuzhu, male, born on December 18, 1964, from Mengyang County, Pengzhou City. He is an accountant in the Yinhe New Materials Ltd of Chongqing City.

He vomited blood to such an extent that he could no longer be force-fed. The hospital also forced his father to write a statement declaring "if Qian Youbang died, his death had no relationship with the '610 Office', no relationship with the Municipal Detention Center, no relationship with the local government and no relationship with the mental hospital."
