(Clearwisdom.net) The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been persecuting Falun Gong for 11 years. Falun Gong practitioners have been peacefully protesting the persecution and clarifying the truth all over the world, including Bulgaria. On Sunday, June 20, 2010, Bulgarian Falun Dafa practitioners once again came to Ocean Park, a tourist site in Varna City, to demonstrate Falun Gong exercises and collect signatures on a petition calling for an end to the persecution.

At Ocean Park, the practitioners set up display boards to expose how the CCP utilized forced labor camps, mental hospitals and prisons to torture Falun Dafa practitioners and how thousands of innocent people have died this way. Many passersby were appalled by these atrocities. People took the fliers and signed the petition calling for an end to the persecution.

The exercise demonstration also attracted many people who wanted to learn Falun Gong. Later that day, a woman who had taken a flier called the local contact person to register for the next free exercise class.
