"Radio Free Asia": Finnish People Dislike Luo Gan's Human Rights Record

(Clearwisdom.net) Radio Free Asia's special correspondent Tian Yi reported on September 12th that Luo Gan, head of China's Political and Legislative Affairs Committee, had just visited Iceland and on September 9th had arrived in Finland, the second stop of his European visit. Due to Luo Gan's human rights records in China, his visit aroused strong disapproval from members of the Finnish society, as well as embarrassing the Finnish government. In Helsinki on September 11th, Miss Wang from China told reporters about some events during Luo Gan's visit to Finland.

According to Miss Wang, the day before Luo Gan's visit to Finland, the local Finnish media published photos of Falun Gong practitioners practicing the exercises in a park, and also exposed Luo Gan as one of the instigators in the persecution of Falun Gong. After Luo Gan's arrival in Finland, the media also published some letters from readers asking why the Finnish Parliament and Ministry for Foreign Affairs invited Luo Gan, a person with such a poor human rights record, to visit their country. Faced with such questions, the Finnish Government had no choice but to offer an explanation. The Finnish Minister for Justice and the Minister for Foreign Affairs replied that Luo Gan was in Finland to attend festivals there, but he was not officially invited to visit Finland.

Miss Wang said that on Thursday morning some Falun Gong practitioners, who have personally experienced persecution or whose relatives have been persecuted, submitted a lawsuit against Luo Gan to the Finnish court. The Finnish Falun Dafa Association has already submitted a criminal lawsuit against Luo Gan to the prosecutors. The leading prosecutor in Finland also met with Falun Gong practitioners and said that they would conduct an investigation into the matter as soon as possible, and take action based on that investigation.

Miss Wang said that Luo Gan, who left Finland on Friday, is now in a very embarrassing situation. For the Finnish public who went through World War II, Luo Gan's poor human rights record reminds them of Hitler and the Gestapo. The Finnish public took a strong dislike toward this criminal.
