(Clearwisdom.net) On June 4, Falun Gong practitioners from the cities of Malmo and Lund in southern Sweden, along with practitioners from Copenhagen, Denmark, went to Medan Square in Lund to hold an anti-torture exhibition. Before the scheduled activity started, it was cloudy and raining. Practitioners set up display boards, and about twenty minutes later, the sun came out.

Reenactment of torture methods used against practitioners in China
Lund is a small university town in southern Sweden with a long and glorious history. This was the first time practitioners have held an anti-torture exhibition there. A short while after the activity started, a Chinese student came over, viewed our display boards, and asked questions with interest. Like many other people from China, he did not know anything about the six-year persecution of Falun Gong. He asked many questions and took a Video-CD and the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. He left his address with the practitioners and hoped that they would send him the Falun Gong exercise VCD. Just before leaving he said, "I have been here for over a year. I heard there were Falun Gong practitioners in Malmo and I went there several times but didn't find them. I am so happy to meet you here today." He originally had a plan for a picnic with his friends but cancelled the plan after he heard the weather forecast calling for heavy rain. Therefore, he went to the square instead, and found Falun Gong.

People come to learn about Falun Gong
During the activity, many people asked many questions about Falun Gong, including why practitioners in China are suffering such terrible human rights abuses. After hearing the true facts, people signed their names without hesitation on our petition calling for an end to the persecution.
