By a practitioner in France

(Clearwisdom.net) On January 16, 2007, Falun Gong practitioners from Paris protested at Place de Paraguay, which is close to the Singapore Embassy, against the false charges brought against six Falun Gong practitioners for "assembly without permission" and their secret trial in Singapore. They urged the Singapore authorities to attach more importance to the future of Singapore's people, to not be accomplices of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and to stop persecuting Falun Gong.

Representatives of the Falun Gong practitioners in Paris submitted a protest letter to the Singapore Embassy calling on the Singapore authorities to attach more importance to the future of its people, hold their moral ground, correct their mistakes, dismiss all the unreasonable charges against Falun Gong practitioners, and stop helping the CCP to persecute Falun Gong.

The First Secretary of the Singapore Embassy accepted the truth-clarification materials and the protest letter. He said he knew about the persecution of Falun Gong in China, and he would pass the letter to the Singapore government.

Passers-by were shocked at the ruthless persecution of Falun Gong by the CCP and its crime of harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners. Most signed their names on the petition calling for an end of the persecution.

Background:

In order to bring the persecution of Falun Gong in China to an end, six Falun Gong practitioners in Singapore distributed some truth-clarification materials about the persecution and leaflets to support Chinese people withdrawing from the Communist party on a busy street in Singapore on October 23, 2005. As a result, Singapore police filed charges against them for "assembly without permission". The trial started on January 22, 2007, but the hearing was held in No.35 courtroom, which has only 8 seats. The court staff refused to allow anyone to witness the trial, including Falun Gong practitioners' family members and the media. Falun Gong practitioners in China, who have been persecuted for nearly 8 years, were deprived of the right to expose the atrocities of the CCP in this so-called democratic country just because they talked about the facts of the persecution and exposed the evil nature of the Communist regime in China. Therefore, European Falun Gong practitioners wrote letters to the Singapore government and held protests in front of Singapore's embassies, hoping they could learn the truth of the persecution and not be accomplices of the CCP.

Falun Gong has been spread to over 60 countries in the world. In order to bring the persecution of Falun Gong in mainland China to an end, overseas Falun Gong practitioners hold protests and explain the facts to people. In the process, they receive support and protection from governments and police, which forms a sharp contrast with what the Singapore authorities have done.
