MP Martin also requested that the Minister ask the Chinese government to release Falun Gong practitioner Mr. Jiangang Huang.

The Honorable Irwin Cotler
Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada
Room 900, Justice Building
House of Commons
Ottawa, ON K1A 0A6

Dear Minister Cotler:

This concerns Jiangang Huang, a 34 year old communications engineer whose sister Limin Huang is a Canadian citizen. Mr. Huang is a practitioner of Falun Gong who was arrested illegally and put into a labour camp for two years without a judicial process. When his prison term ended in December 15, 2002, Mr. Huang was transferred to the Dafeng Fangquian labour camp for brainwashing. Currently his family does not know where he is but they suspect he is still in the labour camp. They do know that he has not been released from incarceration.

This is another horrible case of outrageous violation of innocent people's rights that the government in China is exercising. I am asking, therefore, that you speak forcefully and publicly against China's abuses of their people's basic human rights, in particular, those who are practitioners of Falun Gong. I would also request that you ask the Chinese government to release Mr. Huang to his family. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Yours sincerely,

Keith Martin, M.P.
