One night in late June 2007, Dafa practitioners Ms. Sheng Jinling and Ms. Qian Fengling were reported and arrested by the police from Puzidian Police Station while distributing truth-clarification materials in Zhangbeiwa Village, Baozidian Town, Zunhua City, Hebei Province.

In the police station, they were searched by police officers. Ms. Qian Fengling refused to have her photo taken and was slapped twice by a short, overweight policeman who was about 40 years old.

Ms. Sheng Jinling and Ms. Qian Fengling were handcuffed behind the back of a long chair and the handcuffs were very tight and cut into the flesh. Ms. Qian Fengling asked to use the restroom, but was reprimanded by a tall, lanky policeman.

This tall policeman closed all the doors and windows in the room and sprayed a strong irritant, an unknown liquid, into the room from a small window. Ms. Sheng Jinling and Ms. Qian Fengling gasped for air and coughed violently. Tears streamed out of their eyes and they could not open them. Their throats burned from the smoke they inhaled and it lasted about ten to twenty minutes. This policeman saw that neither of them passed out. He opened the small window and sprayed the liquid again. The toxic gas permeated the room and both were choking and felt dizzy. After a while, the policeman opened the door and windows. Ms. Sheng Jinling and Ms. Qian Fengling asked to use the restroom. The policeman only opened one handcuff and they had to urinate with the other hand handcuff on the steel door.

Later the police forced Ms. Sheng Jinling and Ms. Qian Fengling into the police car and took them to the Zunhua Detention Center. They tried to reason with the police in the car, but were verbally abused.
