Switzerland: Swiss MPs and International NGOs Condemn the Crimes of the CCP Concentration Camp
By a Swiss Practitioner
(Clearwisdom.net) On April 3 and 4, 2006, Falun Gong
practitioners from Europe, Taiwan, North America and Oceania held a rally and a
news conference in front of the UN Office in Geneva and the UN Human Rights
Committee, strongly condemning the crimes at the CCP concentration camps, where
Falun Gong practitioners' organs have been removed and their bodies burned to
eliminate the evidence. The practitioners urgently called on the UN to launch an
immediate investigation into the situation. Swiss MPs and delegates from
International NGOs expressed their condemnation of the atrocities, and their
sympathy and support for Falun Gong practitioners in different ways. Sylvia G. Iriondo, Chairman of "M.A.R. Por Cuba"
from International NGOs in the UN (the branch in Cuba) stated: We are condemning the extremely cruel events in the Sujiatun
Concentration Camp in Northeast China. According to information given by several
witnesses and media reports, 4000 Falun Gong practitioners have already been
persecuted to death there. Their organs were removed when they were still alive
and then their bodies cremated. We feel very painful whenever we hear that those who are
asking for freedom of belief and speech as stated in the International Human
Rights Convention are being persecuted. We are urgently requesting the international community to
together call for the end of crimes against humanity and take action to rescue
the 2000 Falun Gong practitioners who are still locked up in the Concentration
Camp. The free and civilized world cannot keep silent and remain completely
indifferent to these horrible incidents happening right now. Many members and leaders of M.A.R. Por Cuba have experienced
persecution themselves and their family members all have suffered persecution
and violent infringement of their human rights under the dictatorship in Cuba
for about a half century. These persecutions include a team for carrying out a
death sentence. We can feel your sufferings and we are standing with you,
shoulder to shoulder. Dr. Charles Grave from the International Organization of
Beliefs stated: The International Organization of Beliefs supports Falun Gong
and is shocked at the action of removing organs from human bodies in the CCP
Concentration Camp. We hope that the incident will be made known to the world
and be dealt with in the First Human Rights Council Conference of the UN. Mr. Oscar Freysinger, a congressman (from Berne, Switzerland)
stated: Communism has committed big crimes against humanity. When
western countries turn blind eyes, they are accessories as well. The horror has finally been disclosed. When reading Nine Commentaries on the Communist
Party, I felt desperate and helpless. Just as if I was walking into a nine-level hell, hand in hand
with Dante, a poet of Italy, I was experiencing that terrible horror in my
spirit. The "Nine Commentaries" should be
distributed in all schools. All media should promote it as well in order to
disclose the lies of that so-called great steersman, and show the barbarity and
cruelty of the so-called "Cultural Revolution" to the world's people. What the Nine Commentaries state are all facts.
You don't need to say anything more and read other books or write something
either: the facts are right before you. The red empire and its subordinates are always ready for
attacking. That is why the world's people all show special concern over their
threat, and that is also why the world's people would rather think more about
money and something theoretical than look at their actions. The weakness of
western countries is indicated by the fact that they want to cover up this
incident and avoid publishing any comments from the "Nine Commentaries"
so that they can suppress information about the bloody tragedy of genocide. Crowds of followers, who are wild about Mao' thoughts and
have grown up living a dissipated life, have congregated again under the
Communist Party's flag, and its waving shadow has shut out these dark hands. These followers, however, seem very pleased. The flag is red
so they cannot see the bloodstains on it. Mr. Antonio Hodges, Chairman of Green Party in Geneva stated: People in the west who have benefited from the economy of
China tend to keep silent, but the fact is that not all of us have accepted the
horrible and repeated actions of infringing on human rights of Falun Dafa
practitioners. Therefore, all democratic countries in the world should condemn
the atrocities in China conducted by the CCP, among which the incident happening
at Sujiatun Concentration Camp is the latest, most lamentable action. Mr. Rene Wadlow, a delegate of the Cosmopolite Organization
in the UN expressed: I agree with the value you place on "Truthfulness,
Compassion and Tolerance". We have already pointed out many times the danger and threat
brought by forced labor camps and concentration camps in China. The facts of
persecution you have just disclosed are very serious. I think it necessary to
have the UN investigate this incident. And any assistance you can supply to the
investigation will be very useful. If it is impossible to do an official investigation, I think
we must consider the feasibility of letting International NGOs take care of the
investigation. And a book entitled "Human Rights Mission: On-the-spot
Record, Review from the NGOs" by H.Thoolen and B.Verstaapen is very useful
in this field. Please accept my firm support and best wishes. 9 April 2006 |
