Radio France Internationale: Falun Gong Sues Li Changchun During His Visit to Paris
(Clearwisdom.net) Radio France International (RFI) broadcast the
following report in Mandarin to Mainland China and the Mandarin-speaking area of
Paris on July 2, 2004: Three members of the Falun Gong Spiritual movement have filed a lawsuit in
Paris against Li Changchun during his visit. According to their attorney, Mr. Li
was accused of being the accomplice to crimes of torture against members of the
group. The following news came from Zhang Jianping, spokesperson for Falun Gong
in France. Representing three Falun Gong practitioners, Delva, a French attorney, has
filed a lawsuit in Paris against Chinese Politburo Standing Committee member Li
Changchun. The plaintiffs said Mr Li was responsible for "supporting crimes of
torture against members of the group as an accomplice." "As a Politburo Standing Committee member, Mr. Li is in charge of
information and media control in China. He has held many meetings, which aim at
inciting hatred by deliberately demonizing Falun Gong, to call through the media
for the elimination of Falun Gong practitioners." "He supported brainwashing and torture of Falun Gong practitioners while
serving as the Communist Party Secretary of Guangdong Province. So far,
twenty-six Falun Gong deaths from torture in Guangdong prison have been
verified. Of China's thirty provinces, the number of deaths of Falun Gong
practitioners in Guangdong ranked 8th, " says Zhang Jianping. "Some people may doubt the results of our efforts, because we are facing
a monstrous national terrorist regime. However, we care more about the process
than the final result. We also believe, as long as more and more people know
what horrible things they have done and how disgraceful they are in this brutal
persecution, they will be brought to justice sooner or later." "Li Changchun, this evening, is holding a party for the end of the
Chinese Culture Year in France, This lawsuit will be a blow to him," Zhang
Jianping says, "We are not against friendship between France and China, but
the real criminal should and will be brought to justice." Source http://www.clearharmony.net/articles/200407/20689.html
