BBC Monitoring: Falun Members Petition Hong Kong Government Over Mainland Detentions


Aug 24, 2001 -- (BBC Monitoring) Text of report by Radio TV Hong Kong audio web site on 24 August.

About 100 Falun Gong members have petitioned the SAR [Special Administrative Region] government for help in securing the release of fellow practitioners who are on hunger strike in mainland labor camps. A spokesman for the Association of Falun Dafa, Hui Yee-han, told Maggie Nelson they also want jailed Hong Kong businessman Chu O-ming [Zhu Keming, in standard Chinese] to be set free.

[Hui] "There are about 300 Falun Gong practitioners who have been on hunger strike for over three weeks. In three labor camps they were given long sentences of imprisonment [as heard]. So these people are on hunger strike and on the brink of death.

The second issue is we want to arouse the Hong Kong public to be aware of the Hong Kong permanent resident, Mr Chu O-ming. He was given five years imprisonment in Tianjin because last year he filed a complaint and lodged it against Jiang Zemin for his illegal detention of Falun Gong practitioners."
