Information Centre
For more than three years, the Falun Dafa Information Center has received — on a daily basis — dozens of reports of arbitrary detention, forced-labor, extortion, torture, death and other forms of persecution against Falun Gong practitioners in China.
Last year, Jane Dai visited 26 countries with her daughter in the hope that by publicising her husband’s death, more people can learn about the brutal persecution of Falun Gong practitioners by the Jiang regime. This would help to prevent other Falun Gong practitioners from suffering like her husband.
As I am sure you are aware, Falun Gong practitioners can face severe hardship and persecution in Chian and the couple would appreciate any steps you can take to allow them more time to lodge their appeal or alternatively that you consider their case on humanitarian grounds.
When Dafa practitioners lost consciousness from being beaten, guards instigated the inmates to pour water mixed with instant noodle seasoning and hot pepper into their noses.
In the 12 days from the first to the 12th of March, reports of 38 deaths due to persecution have come from China. None of these practitioners had the benefit of any legal procedures.
Since the House of Commons and Senate accepted the motion in October 2002, this Bill has had a positive effect. It was instrumental in the release of three Canadian residents’ family members in China who had been sent to forced labor camps for practicing Falun Gong.
On behalf of Friends of Falun Gong, I am writing to express our deep concern about the impending deportation to China of an elderly couple, Mr. Wang Juntao, 66 and Ms. Wang Liluan, 62. Friends of Falun Gong is a U.S.-based nonprofit human rights organization consisting of about 1,000 members who support the freedom of belief of persons who practice Falun Gong.
Over 1,000 Falun Gong practitioners have gathered this week in Geneva to bring
attention to the nationwide persecution of Falun Gong in China during the United
Nation Commission on Human Rights’ annual meeting.
SYDNEY (FDI) – Due to the overwhelming concerns from domestic and overseas
members of Human Rights organisations, sympathetic politicians and Falun Dafa
practitioners regarding the Wang couple’s case, there is hope that there will
not be any hasty deportation.
UK Falun Gong practitioner Lili Lin, after being imprisoned for 15 days in a deportation centre by the UK Home Office, was released around 2pm on March 14th. She left the deportation centre at London Gatwick Airport and is now back home in Liverpool.
