Xiong Yan was a Peking University student activist during the 1989 democracy movement. Amnesty International named him in contemporaneous post-crackdown arrest documentation. Human Rights Watch later reported that he spent roughly nineteen months in detention in connection with the Tiananmen movement, lost his academic credentials, left China in 1992, and later served as a U.S. Army chaplain.
Evidence note: this profile separates contemporaneous arrest evidence from later retrospective accounts and does not infer an exact prison, cell, court judgment, or organizational office without a specific source.
