ABC Online, Australia: Gold Coast law students involved in Falun Gong case


September 18, 2003

Four Gold Coast law students will help prepare a high profile case.

The Griffith University students will carry out research for the legal team representing a practitioner of the spiritual movement, Falun Gong, who alleges she was tortured in China.

A petition is due to be presented to a United Nations' committee next year.

One of the students, Catherine Young, says she values the opportunity to be involved.

"It could take a long time, but human rights is a very important area and we believe that it's something worth spending our time outside the university to do," she said.

"If I can help in any small way to help this lady and help stop what happened to her happening to other people in the future, then I am all for it."
