Guo Xiangyu was then detained in solitary confinement for ten months. During these ten months he was handcuffed for three months. He was forced to sit on a small stool for 15 days, which resulted in the dislocation of his spinal discs that put pressure on his sciatic nerve. Half of his body became numb and he often had dizzy spells and headaches. He has been held at the hospital in Division 4 since June 8, 2004. The doctor said he was going to be paralyzed, but the perpetrators from Division 4 refuse to release him.
