Falun Gong Practitioners in the U.S. Call for Urgent Rescue of Charles Li (Photos)
(Clearwisdom.net) Another strong storm hit Chicago this week. However Falun Gong practitioners from Chicago areas
continued their daily peaceful appeal in front of Chinese consulate in cold wind and snow. We
collected signatures from passersby to rescue US citizen Charles Li who is detained by Chinese
government without reason. On March 6, a press conference was held in front of Chinese consulate urgently calling for
Charles Li's release. Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Su said, "Charles Li's arrest is Chinese government's
retaliatory act that was intended to suppress the righteous voice of international community." A "Go to Washington" Car Tour had been initiated by practitioners across US.
Practitioners from Chicago also joined the effort. Their team planned to arrive in Washington on
March 7 to attend US rally to rescue Charles Li. At the press conference, a resolution from Cook County to urgent rescue Charles Li was read. The
resolution condemned Chinese government's arrest and detainment of US citizens and residents as well
as the threats to overseas Falun Gong practitioners. 2. Kansas Falun Gong practitioners Hold press conference to rescue Charles Li Kansas Falun Gong practitioners held press conference to rescue Charles Li in Kansas City's
