(Minghui.org) A woman in Macheng City, Hubei Province, developed a severe medical condition while being detained at a brainwashing center for her faith in Falun Gong, a spiritual discipline that has been persecuted by the Chinese communist regime since 1999.

Ms. Yin Aimei was arrested on September 12, 2025, by Baiguo Town Police Station officers. She was held at a brainwashing center located in the Xindongfang Hotel for 15 days, during which time she had excessive blood in her stool and quickly lost weight.

It’s been reported that the Macheng City Political and Legal Affairs Committee recently started the brainwashing sessions and issued quotas to the police stations in various districts to arrest Falun Gong practitioners.

It remains to be confirmed whether Ms. Yin has been released.

Ms. Yin’s arrest came only nine months after she finished serving a sixteen-month term for her faith. She was given another prison term of two years and five months in 2018. See the related report for details of her past persecution.
