Sui Thai, a Hmong Chritian, was arrested in April 2011 and sentenced in December 2011 to 10 years in prison, under Article 87 (Undermining the unity policy) of the 1999 Penal Code. When his family visited him in 2018 Siu Thai had been beaten so harshly that he was not able to recognise any of his relatives, and was unable to walk by himself.
Siu Thai completed his sentence in 2021.
