Hungary: Practitioners Commemorate Liu Chengjun in front of the Chinese Consulate and Protest the Persecution of Falun Gong (Photos)
(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioners in Hungary were shocked to
learn that Changchun Falun Gong practitioner Liu Chengjun died from long term
torture on December 26, 2003. On January 3, 2004 they commemorated Liu Chengjun
in front of the Chinese consulate, and called for an immediate end to the
persecution. To inform the general public about the Jiang regime's persecution of Falun
Gong, Changchun Falun Gong practitioner Liu Chengjun and other practitioners
successfully tapped into the Changchun cable TV network and broadcast Falun Gong
truth-clarification videos on March 5, 2002. The broadcasts lasted between forty
and fifty minutes and this amazing event allowed several million people to learn
the facts about Falun Gong and the persecution. After the Jiang regime's lies
were suddenly exposed, people in the entire Changchun area were shocked. Since
Jiang Zemin relies on lies to proceed with his persecution, this incident made
him feel extremely scared. Thereby, he gave a secret order to "kill the
responsible Falun Gong practitioners without pardon." Afterwards, a killing spree was initiated in Jilin. 5,000 Falun Gong
practitioners were arrested in Changchun and at least six were beaten to death.
After Liu Chengjun was arrested on March 24, 2002, the police shot him in the
legs, even after he was handcuffed and in custody. He was illegally sentenced to
19 years in prison. After being brutally tortured and abused in the prison for a
year and nine months, Liu Chengjun passed away on December the 26th at Jilin
University Sino-Japanese Friendship Hospital. Eyewitnesses stated that Liu
Chengjun's body had blood running from the nostrils, ears, thighs and other
areas. On the day of his death, Mr. Liu's body was forcibly cremated without an
autopsy. Liu Chengjun was the eighth confirmed Falun Gong practitioner to be
tortured to death because of this TV network-tapping incident. In mainland China, since the illegal persecution of Falun Gong began, the
regime-controlled mass media has spared no effort in fabricating lies to frame
and attack Falun Gong and Falun Gong practitioners. At the same time, the regime
has spared no efforts in covering up the facts of the persecution; those who
don't know the facts have been innocently poisoned by lies. Regardless of the
terrifying consequences, Liu Chengjun and other Falun Gong practitioners risked
their lives to broadcast the facts and resist the illegal persecution. They
safeguarded man's basic rights to free speech and freedom of belief. Their
peaceful approach in resisting the brutal persecution is a magnificent feat. We must try our utmost to help more people learn the facts of the persecution
and stop the persecution altogether. We are calling for the severe punishment of
Jiang Zemin, since he is responsible for this persecution and is the prime
culprit in the brutal murder of Liu Chengjun and many others. Jiang Zemin must
be punished for the numerous crimes he has committed. Source: http://www.clearharmony.net/articles/200401/17125.html Posting date: 1/10/2004 |
