(Clearwisdom.net) On September 26, 2002, Copenhagen police made a special trip to Hotel Ibis and formally apologized to a Greek Falun Gong practitioner for wrongfully arresting him. The police delivered a statement initiated by an attorney for the Denmark police.

According to European Falun Dafa Information Center, on September 24, 2002, Chinese agents put pressure on Danish Police, which caused the arrest of a Falun Gong practitioner who politely addressed a visiting Chinese leader in the hotel lobby. That evening at the SAS Radisson hotel in the center of Copenhagen, a family of 3 Falun Gong practitioners, a husband, a pregnant wife and a 10-year-old daughter made a peaceful appeal to the Chinese leader to help stop the persecution and torture of innocent Falun Gong practitioners in China. They approached the Premier and the husband said, "Good evening! Falun Dafa is good!" The family was then taken away and interrogated by Danish police under the pressure of Chinese authorities. The husband was arrested without any warrant, handcuffed and driven off to the police station. But after investigation, Vasilio was released with no charge. The policeman in the police station in charge of this case said to Mr. Peter Jauhal from the European Falun Dafa Association that they found there had been nothing wrong with Vasilio's behaviour.

Through practitioners and Vasilio's family's truth clarification to the police, many policeman gained a basic understanding of Falun Gong and the persecution against Falun Gong practitioners. They promptly expressed their support to Falun Gong practitioners.
