As World Human Rights Day approaches, the Munich Brach of the International Human Rights Association, Falun Gong practitioners and the Tibet organization held a series of activities in Southern Germany to expose the human rights violations and torture methods used in China. This reporter interviewed Mr. Jurgen Thierack, spokesman of the Munich Branch of the International Human Rights Association.

Mr. Thierack told this reporter that the International Human Rights Association was established more than 30 years ago. Its original focus was on the Eastern European countries' human rights issues. Later, it also became concerned with the Tibet issue. The association, together with related Tibet organizations, conducted large-scale activities in Munich concerning Tibet.

Mr. Thierack said that at present, the Falun Gong issue has become one of the association's major concerns because Falun Gong is being severely persecuted in China. Thousands of people are incarcerated or have become homeless. The association's work is to try its best to collect detailed information about various kinds of human rights violations. Secondly, it provides this information to all kinds of media and organizations so as to allow them to learn what has been going on in China. Thirdly, it launches appeals to call for rescue and support, and calls upon the public, media, governments, political figures and organizations to help those who are being persecuted.

Regarding this, he stressed that Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Xiong Wei, who just returned to Germany, is a good example. The International Human Rights Association, Amnesty International, and the Association of Persecuted Groups conducted widespread rescue activities in German society during Xiong Wei's imprisonment. Now, she has finally obtained her freedom after two years of imprisonment.

He continued: Xiong Wei's story also made those labor camp administrators aware that what they have done will be recorded and will be exposed to the public one day, because many international organizations are paying close attention to this issue and collecting all kinds of records.

The above was reported by RFA special correspondent in Germany, Tianyi.
