From 9:15 am to 10:30 am on April 8th, 2009, the Zengcheng City Court opened a court session covertly, to try Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Zhang Chunhe without informing her family. During that time, the courtroom was surrounded by police officers. The presiding judge was Lai Xiaoyun. The so-called witness was Zeng Yangchu. Wang Jianlai, director of the Zengcheng City 610 Office1, staff members of the Licheng Town government office, and twenty to thirty other people were brought in by the authorities to be in the audience. None of Ms. Zhang's family members were present.

Before the trial, Zhang Chunhe was detained in the Guangzhou City Military Police Hospital. After that, she was taken to the Zengcheng City Detention Centre. Ms. Zhang has suffered brutal persecution in detention, and she is now critically ill. In the past 3 months, tumours in her body have become bigger and bigger, and her abdomen is swollen. Ms. Zhang frequently passes blood, and she has heart palpitations. She sweats abnormally, is dizzy frequently, and her abdomen aches. In the recent 20 days, the pain in her abdomen has intensified. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) agencies, including the Zengcheng City 610 Office, police department, the court, and the detention centre, have all disregarded her condition and continue to detain Ms. Zhang.

As early as three month ago, the directing doctor of Guangzhou City Military Police Hospital called the authorities of the Zengcheng City 610 Office many times, to inform them that Ms. Zhang was critically ill and asked them to pick her up. Most people working in the hospital have said that they were willing to be her witnesses, to expose, on the Internet, the persecution that Ms. Zhang has suffered. They would like to let the people be the judge.

Ms. Zhang Chunhe is an intermediate accountant. She used to be the chief of the Property Management Association of Zengcheng City. After she began to practise Falun Gong in 1994, Ms. Zhang experienced huge changes both mentally and physically. She strictly followed the principle of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and was considerate of others all the time. As a result, she was publicly recognized as a good person. Since the CCP began to persecute Falun Gong in 1999, Ms. Zhang has been abiding to her belief. Because she refused to give up Falun Gong, she was treated as a key target of persecution, and suffered detention, forced labour and brainwashing.

On July 23rd, 2008, Zhang Chunhe was taken to a brainwashing session in Guangzhou City from her workplace. That same day, she was diagnosed as having tumours in her body. The brainwashing unit refused to admit her to the hospital. Agents of the Zengcheng 610 Office also acknowledged the existence of the tumours. The biggest tumour is the size of a large grapefruit. The authorities tried to force her family members to sign documents authorizing an operation many times, but were rejected. Instead, the family has requested her release to seek her own medical treatment.

After Ms. Zhang was taken back to Zengcheng City from the brainwashing session, Wang Jianlai, as well as police officers from the Xiyuan Police Station, handcuffed her hands behind her back and shackled her ankles. Consequently, she developed oedema all over. Later, Ms. Zhang was detained in the Guangzhou City Military Police Hospital for six months.

Before Ms. Zhang left the hospital, the doctor kept close watch on her physical condition each day. On the night before she left, the doctor asked her to sign a medical report. On the day Ms. Zhang left the hospital, the doctor said, "I guess you will not die today. I will let you leave the hospital today."
