Practitioner Huang Naiwei, 62, was sent to forced labour camps three times. The last time, she was supposed to be released on September 16th. However, the 610 Office (an organisation of special agents just for persecuting Falun Gong) of Luwan District refused to free her and instead transferred her to a brainwashing centre because the government was running the 2010 World Expo. She has been held in the brainwashing centre since then.

Huang Naiwei is a retiree of the No. 18 Radio Factory of Shanghai. She became healthier and all of her diseases disappeared after she began practising Falun Gong.

In early 2001, Huang Naiwei was arrested for possessing materials regarding the persecution of Falun Gong. She was sentenced to two years of forced labour in the Shanghai Women's Forced Labour Camp, where she was subjected to brainwashing and heavy labour. During those two years, Huang Naiwei's mother passed away, but the camp warden prohibited the family from informing her until right before her mother's funeral. She was released after two years, but local policemen and neighbourhood committee's staff often came to her home to harass her.

In early 2007, policemen, neighbourhood committee's staff and 610 Office members came and ransacked her home and threatened to arrest her again. Luo Deyuan from the Department of Political Security of Luwan Police Station and local policemen arrested Huang Naiwei at home on March 19th. She was handcuffed and brought to the police station to be interrogated. The interrogation lasted from 8:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. The policemen said to her, "If you still don't give up your belief in Falun Gong, you will be sent to a mental hospital to receive injections that are used on mentally ill people. No one will know about what happens to you."

Huang Naiwei was again sent to the Shanghai Women's Forced Labour Camp not long after that. This time it was for one year. Wardens instructed three inmates who were drug abusers to watch and torture her 24 hours a day. The inmates forced Huang Naiwei to sit on a small stool for long periods of time, which resulted in broken skin on her buttocks. The broken skin stuck to her underwear. Huang Naiwei slipped extra underwear inside the pair she was wearing in order to reduce the pain. When warden Jiang Yiqiong discovered this, she ordered the three inmates to remove the extra underwear. The warden also ordered inmates to punch and kick her because she refused to swear at Falun Gong.

After she was released, she continued to expose the persecution and tell people about Falun Gong. She was reported to the police on June 18th, 2009. She was arrested again by policemen from Luwan District Police Station. Her home was searched and all of the Falun Gong books, materials and personal belongings were confiscated by the police. This time she was sentenced to 15 months of forced labour. She was imprisoned at the Luwan Detention Centre, where she was prohibited from family visitation because she had refused to put on an inmate uniform.

The detention centre was supposed to release her on September 16th. However, in order for the government to run the 2010 World Expo without persecuted groups trying to have their voices heard by the world, the Luwan 610 Office members, collaborating with the Ruijin Police Station, the Ruijin Neighbourhood Committee and the Yanzhong Neighbourhood Committee, transferred her from the detention centre to Qingpu Brainwashing Centre, a facility built for the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. Huang Naiwei has been imprisoned there ever since, even though her sentence was supposed to end in October.
