Two Swedish Practitioners Describe their Nightmare in a Beijing Prison (Photos)


(Clearwisdom.net) In the afternoon of February 19, 2002, Christian Nilsson and Peter Schiller, two Swedish practitioners who just returned from Beijing after their peaceful appeal, held a press conference in Stockholm.

In order to tell Chinese people that Falun Dafa is good and that Dafa practitioners are all over the world, and to call for the Chinese regime to stop the persecution against Falun Dafa practitioners, Peter and Christian went to Beijing. However, they were illegally detained. Because they executed their rights as foreigners, which include the right to refuse to answer any question before they meet their representatives from the Swedish Embassy, they were illegally sent to a jail that held criminals for three days and nights.

After they returned to Sweden, despite their fatigue, they came to the capital to attend the press conference and answered reporters' questions earnestly. Reporters from Swedish National Radio, AFP, AP and other media interviewed them for almost two hours. They told the media why they went to Beijing. They also described in detail their experiences of being detained and sent to prison and the mental abuse they received.
