Victim of South African Shooting Interviewed by Australia Associated Press


(Clearwisdom.net) On June 28, 2004, nine Australian Falun Gong practitioners flew to South Africa and planed to file a lawsuit against two Chinese officials who were visiting South Africa at that time, Zeng Qinghong and Bo Xilai, for their participation in the persecution of Falun Gong. On their way from the airport to the hotel, they encountered a shooting attack. David Liang was shot in both feet. On July 23, David was interviewed by AAP correspondent Maria Hawthorne and related his experience. He called upon the Australian government to cooperate with the South Africa authorities to investigate the shooting incident.

AAP reported that Sydney taxi driver David Liang was driving a hired car from Johannesburg Airport to Pretoria when another car drew alongside and an assault rifle was pointed out the window.

Liang was quoted saying, "They opened up the window and pulled out an AK-47, a Chinese military gun, and shot the lower part of the car. Then they shot about five bullet holes in the car and two bullets hit my feet."

The report went on to say that the shots shattered his right ankle, tore into his left foot and blew out his car's front tyres. Mr Liang struggled to control the car. Unable to brake, he managed to steer the car to the safety of the side of the road. His attackers did not stop.
