Germany: Franziska Methodist Church Centre Reports on Lawsuit Launched Against Jiang Zemin in Taiwan


During December 2003, the Franziska Church Centre released the following message:

Taipei: Genocidal Jiang Zemin Sued

Members of Falun Gong handed in a lawsuit to Taiwan's Highest Court against the one time leader of the People's Republic of China, Jiang Zemin, and other Chinese Communist leaders for Genocide. The prosecutors invoked the 1948 UN Charter, which advocates punishing any criminal who has committed genocide. This defines genocide as: "Intentionally destroying all or part of a race, a religious community, killing members of a group or simply doing them harm.

Jiang Zemin started an anti-Falun Gong campaign in 1999. According to the Falun Dafa Information Centre, during the persecution that Jiang instigated, 822 people have lost their lives. However, Chinese government officials claim this number to be over 1600. Tens of thousands of Falun Gong believers have been arrested and sent to labour camps without any legal procedures.

Falun Gong, also called Falun Dafa, is a way of cultivation based on the principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance with a history of several thousand years. Falun Gong had 100 million practitioners in China. Since 1992, its amazing speed of development triggered fear and panic in the leaders of the Communist Party. They think that Falun Gong is a serious threat to their power base.
