Ms. Yang Haiqin, 48 years old, lived in the Shiqiao residential area at Chengguan Town in Miyun County, Beijing. She started practicing Falun Dafa in 1996.

After the persecution of Falun Dafa by Jiang's regime began in July 1999, Ms. Yang was detained and abducted for brainwashing sessions. She was arrested numerous times by the 610 Office, county police, and the local police, and she suffered much mental and physical abuse.

On January 27, 2002, she was arrested by police from the Miyun County 610 Office and the county police station. She was sentenced to one and a half years of forced labor from January 27, 2002 to July 26, 2003.
