Finland: Practitioners Condemn the Shooting in South Africa by Appealing at the Chinese Embassy (Photo)
(Clearwisdom.net) On June 30, 2004, practitioners appealed at
the Chinese Embassy in Helsinki regarding the shooting of Falun Gong
practitioners in South Africa. A spokesperson in Finland stated that this
incident is another act of overseas persecution by Jiang Zemin's regime.
An Australian practitioner was shot and was sent urgently to
hospital on June 28, 2004 during the visit of two Chinese officials in South
Africa. Practitioner Mr. David Liang was in a car with some other Falun Gong
practitioners while an unknown car appeared next to them and an African man from
the car shot at Mr. Liang, who was seriously injured.
Practitioners were on their way to appeal to the Chinese
officials, who were visiting South Africa. The visitors are the minister of
commerce Bo Xilai and the vice-president Zeng Qinghong, who are both well known
for their roles in the persecution of Falun Gong in China. They have directly
given orders against Falun Gong, which has resulted in thousands of cases of
torture and illegal imprisonment as well numerous deaths. Both have been served
with lawsuits with charges of torture, genocide and crimes against humanity in
different countries. The practitioners who were shot at were planning to file a
lawsuit against Bo and Zeng in South Africa, as well as hold a press conference
to expose their crimes.
Many people think that the Chinese visitors Bo and Zeng, who
fear that their crimes will be exposed, are responsible for this gun attack.
A spokesperson for the Finnish Falun Dafa Association said in
the appeal at the Chinese Embassy in Helsinki, "We believe that Zeng Qinghong
and Bo Xilai are most likely behind this shooting incident. They are following
closely Jiang Zemin's orders to persecute and suppress Falun Gong by all means.
The persecutors have committed terrible crimes against innocent people, both
inside and outside China, and they are afraid that their crimes will be exposed
to the world. This is a gross form of terrorism and persecution targeted
directly at Falun Gong."
