On the afternoon of the same day, two police vehicles arrived at Mr. Sun's home and several people illegally rushed into his residence, stealing many items belonging to his family, including a computer used by a child for study.
While in detention, Mr. Sun Pinghua was interrogated under torture for several days and nights. According to people imprisoned at the same location, Mr. Sun Pinghua lost feeling in his left hand due to the torture.
