(Clearwisdom.net) In an article published on December 11, 2006, The Nordland Daily reported that more than one hundred million people in over sixty countries practice Falun Gong. Falun Gong was banned in China in 1999, and hundreds of thousands of Falun Gong practitioners have been persecuted, imprisoned and in many cases tortured.
It was reported that eight months ago, Liu Ying’s younger sister was sentenced to jail for appealing to the central government to stop persecuting Falun Gong. Liu Ying will launch a month long European tour to let more European people know about the truth of the CCP’s human rights violations in China.
Liu Ying said, "My younger sister was sentenced to three years imprisonment. Three other friends have also been sent to labor camps".
The report concluded by saying that this brutal persecution of Falun Gong is a concern of more and more of the world’s people.
In March of 2006, Falun Gong practitioner Liu Jin was illegally arrested by the CCP. Her home was searched by the police and she was sentenced to three years imprisonment for "interfering with the execution of the law of the state". This was due to some Falun Gong books and the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party being found in her home. Her sister, Liu Ying, who lives in Norway, told people about the persecution her younger sister suffered. Kind-hearted people helped her to contact a local newspaper, which subsequently interviewed Liu Ying.
In order to rescue her younger sister, Falun Gong practitioner Liu Ying will begin a tour around Europe to raise awareness
