Practitioner Mr. Sun Jiangzhong from the Fengrun District of Tangshan City, Hebei Province, was arrested by the local police in December 2002 and later sentenced to seven years of imprisonment at Jidong Prison in Hebei Province.

In June 2005, Mr. Sun was transferred from the Fourth to the Fifth Division of Jidong Prison. After he arrived in the Fifth Division, the police locked him in a small cell. Mr. Sun went on a hunger strike to protest the persecution, but the police ignored him. Afterwards, they sent him to the "Strictly Monitored Team" for inhuman persecution, and he was not allowed to have enough to eat. Every day he was forced to sit on a small bench and face the wall without moving. Every afternoon, he was forced to do routine army marches, running and routine exercises with prisoners who did not follow the prison regulations.

The director of Jidong Prison ordered the Fifth Division police guards to brainwash Mr. Sun within three months. In order to achieve that goal, Huang Liansheng, the executive education officer of the Fifth Division, and Xie, the leader of the strictly monitored team, tortured him brutally. They would not allow his family to visit him or send him anything. When they could not change Mr. Sun's mind, they permitted his family to meet him once in July to help brainwash him. Huang Liansheng not only would not allow Mr. Sun's family to give him anything but also would not allow him to buy any food with his own money saved in prison. In the torrid summer, the police prohibited him from taking a bath or communicating with his family by phone or letters.
