Russia: Anti-torture Exhibition at the Chinese Embassy to Call for an End to the Persecution (Photos)

By a Russian practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) On April the 9th 2005, Falun Gong practitioners from Moscow and other areas of Russia gathered in front of the Chinese Embassy. They held an anti-torture exhibition and called on the Chinese Communist Party to immediately stop persecuting Falun Gong.

A series of information boards were put on display to exhibit the various forms of torture that the communist regime uses in cruel attempts to force Falun Gong practitioners to renounce their beliefs. Practitioners simulated some of the methods of torture used in China and exposed the fact that in the past six years Jiang Zemin and the Chinese Communist Party have brutally persecuted Falun Gong practitioners, who live their lives by the principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance." They demanded that the persecution be stopped and the prime culprits, Jiang Zemin, Luo Gan, Zhou Yongkang and Liu Jing, be brought to justice.

Practitioners also sent forth righteous thoughts and distributed leaflets to passers-by, construction workers and the police on duty. These people showed sincere concern for China's persecuted practitioners and condemned the persecution. Some of them asked for extra leaflets for their friends and relatives. They signed their names on the petition calling for an end to the persecution. Two young people approached practitioners while they were riding their bicycles. When they found out that the tortures demonstrated that day are just the tip of the iceberg compared to the many methods of abuse that are used on practitioners in China, they put their bikes down and stood with practitioners saying, "Let us join your demonstration."
