On 8 December 2004, Judge Wilkin of Northern California’s U.S. District Court adopted Magistrate Chen’s recommendation finding Liu and Xia liable for crimes that violate international treaties ratified by China, the Chinese Constitution and law, as well as international law.
A common question people ask about Falun Gong is: “You people have distributed so many flyers, done so much, and held such big events, where on earth does all this money come from?”
The Party has always falsely claimed, “Now is the best period of human rights in Chinese history.” When the World Human Rights Day was coming (December 10, 2004), let us examine this statement through live examples.
A Sydney woman allegedly imprisoned and tortured for eight months in China is suing the country’s former president Jiang Zemin in the NSW Supreme Court.
A YAGOONA artist will continue her fight against former Chinese president Jiang Zemin this Friday when her accusations of torture are expected to be heard in the NSW Supreme Court.
It seems that this lawsuit has caused some frenzied reaction from the Chinese authorities. The Australian reported one source as saying, “They can’t understand why the Government can’t just stop it from going ahead, like it would in China.”

In May 1992, Mr. Li Hongzhi held the first Falun Gong class in China. In September 1992, Falun Gong was officially accepted as a direct branch of the China Qigong Research Association and received a nationwide permit to teach Falun Dafa in China. Later, the China TV Broadcasting Agency Publishing Company and some other official publishing companies published Mr. Li’s works, Falun Gong and Zhuan Falun.
Because of its tremendous power to improve health, Falun Gong stood out from the thousands of other qigongs of that time and spread quickly.
During this trip to four Latin America countries by Hu Jintao, even though he only stayed in Argentina for two days, incidents of peacefully appealing Falun Gong practitioners being assaulted right in front of him have happened repeatedly. As China’s paramount leader, his silence towards the Chinese diplomatic mission and their cohorts’ vicious acts constitutes acknowledgement and encouragement.
The High Court of Zambia issued an official arrest warrant and dispatched police to search for a Chinese official held in contempt of court after being charged with the murder of Falun Gong practitioners. This is the first Chinese high-ranking official to be issued an arrest warrant overseas.
