Daily Telegraph (Australia): Australian 'snatched' in China
January 25, 2003 (Clearwisdom.net) A SYDNEY woman has been snatched off the street by police while visiting
relatives in China, with friends believing she has been arrested because of her spiritual beliefs. Ms Chen, of Canterbury, is a practitioner of Falun Gong meditation which is outlawed in China.
Her family in Australia confirmed that she was detained by the Chinese national security department.
But the Australian Government is yet to get a response from Beijing to its inquiries. Ms Chen arrived in China with her six-year-old daughter for a visit to her parents on January 17.
According to friends in Australia, Ms Chen left her daughter with her mother while she visited
friends on Monday. http://www.dailytelegraph.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5936,5885226%5E21302,00.html
