On the 4^th floor of the building, where sick prisoners stay, nine prison guards monitored one practitioner.

Practitioners arrested and held there include: Ms. Liu Liping (from Daqing), Ms. Zhou Chunling, Ms. Xu Jiayu, Ms. Yu Xiuying (from Qitaihe), Ms. Liu Yuying (from Hegang), and Ms. Dong Yazhen (from Hulan).
