Welcome Wen Jiabao, Bring Jiang to justice.
From 2nd May to 6th May, Wen Jiabao visits Germany. On 2nd May, Falun Gong practitioners from Germany and Austria welcomed Wen Jiabao and asked that Jiang be brought to justice in Munich, the first venue of Wen’s visit, as well as the nearby city Freising.
Near a farm in Freising, over forty Falun Gong practitioners stood at two junctions of the road to welcome Wen Jiabao. As when Wen visited the United States last year, the message delivered by Falun Gong practitioners for this visit remains: “Welcome Wen Jiabao”, “Bring Jiang to Justice”, and “Falun Dafa is Good”.

About half past one in the afternoon, Wen Jiabao’s motorcade passed through in front of practitioners and two buses filled with young Chinese students with small Chinese national flags in their hands. When they passed in front of Falun Gong practitioners, some of the students on the buses waved their hands to show greetings and many cameras took pictures of Falun Gong through the windows of the vehicles. When they came out from the farm, Wen Jiabao’s motorcade once again passed in front of the practitioners, it could be seen clearly that some Chinese officials in the vehicles looked at practitioners with smiling faces.
Telling the Facts to German Officials and Police
The local authority had sent out several policemen and officials to maintain order. The policemen took the initiative to talk with practitioners and to understand the motivation of this petition. Having learnt the truth about the development of Falun Gong as well as the persecution of Falun Gong, the person in charge of the Freising Police said, “I strongly support the way of Falun Gong’s peaceful protest against the violence, it would not be a good result to use violence to resist violence.”
The translator arranged by the local government is a German with very good Chinese and he is also very interested in Falun Gong as well. Many practitioners told the facts to him from different angles. Some German police did not understand the despotic schemes of the Chinese government-controlled media, thereupon he explained the facts to the police based on information from practitioners about Jiang’s misdeeds such as the truth of the self-immolation. The situation was the same as former Falun Gong activities; at the beginning the policemen’s facial expression looked serious and intense, after several hours, while they learned more and more about the truth, their expression became more and more relaxed. When practitioners left, they all smiled and waved their hands to say goodbye to practitioners.
Afterwards practitioners got back Munich to continue the peaceful petition. An official from the German security department said to practitioners, it was two year ago when Jiang Zemin was visiting Berlin, he was also on official duty in Berlin. At that time the German government believed the Chinese government’s rumour that Falun Gong will disturb the state visit. But today, no body will believe those false rumours again. According to reports from the German Falun Dafa Information Centre, the federal German criminal police bureau recently acknowledged that the behaviour of expelling Falun Gong practitioners from their hotel in which Jiang stayed during his visiting in 2002 was illegal, and also acknowledged that “Falun Gong practitioners’ protest activities against the persecution of Falun Gong in China, even directly to express their protest to the Chinese state-visiting guests, still belongs to a protecting category of freedom of speech which is enshrined in the German constitution.” A German judge also emphasised that, Falun Gong is always carrying on the resistance by peaceful means, to his knowledge; Falun Gong has never used violence against any one or any thing.
Support from the People
A German lady, who works in the hotel in which Wen Jiabao will stay, learnt the truth about the persecution from Falun Gong practitioners; she just wants more people to know the truth. Because the Falun Gong practitioners were not allowed to go to the opposite side of the street, thereupon she took some Falun Gong leaflets and materials to the opposite side of the street and distributed them to the people herself.
Many people in Munich already know about the misdeeds of Jiang. A middle-aged man received a leaflet and inquired the reason for this matter. When practitioners mentioned that Falun Gong was here to appeal to bring Jiang to justice, not waiting for further explanations, he said: “this is right, I wish you good luck!”
