The aim of the lawsuit is to urge International Crime Court start an overall investigation of Jiang's crimes.

The plaintiffs stated that international human rights organizations and foreign governments recognize and support Falun Gong's peacefulness and condemned the Chinese regime for its abuse of Chinese government at all levels, manipulating the media, education system, military, police and judicial systems, as well as the medical system to persecute Falun Gong practitioners.
