MEP Chris Davies Requests French Authorities To Formally Apologise for the Paris Incident

4th March 2004

Dear European Friends of Falun Gong

Thank you for your recent letter regarding the arrest of the Falun Gong practitioners during the Chinese New Year celebrations in Paris.

I too am horrified by the actions of the French authorities and have written to the French Ambassador to the EU to highlight my concerns. I have asked him to raise the matter with the French government and requested an apology from the French authorities for this episode.

I shall contact you as soon as I receive a response.

Yours sincerely,

Chris Davies MEP
