UK: During Wen Jiabao's Visit, Falun Gong Practitioners Appeal to Bring the Prime Culprits to Justice

On the 9th of May, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao started his state visit to the United Kingdom. Displaying banners with messages: "Falun Gong is Good", “Bring Jiang Zemin to Justice”, “Bring Luo Gan, Zhou Yongkang, Liu Jing and Bo Xilai to Justice”, UK Falun Gong practitioners held a peaceful appeal at the Chinese embassy in London, calling for an end to the persecution of Falun Gong in China.

The UK is the fourth stop of Wen Jiabao’s European visit. Just before the visit, UK practitioners filed a lawsuit against Bo Xilai for his crimes of torture and genocide against Falun Gong practitioners and requested his arrest upon arrival in the UK. The Metropolitan Police at New Scotland Yard considered the formal allegations made against him.

Bo Xilai actively follows Jiang Zemin in persecuting Falun Gong. During his term as Mayor of Dalian City, Dalian City was one of the cities where the persecution of Falun Gong was most severe. When he became the Governor of Liaoning Province, Liaoning Province became one of the provinces where the persecution of Falun Gong was equally severe. Up to the 1st of December 2003, it has been verified that at least ninety Falun Gong practitioners were persecuted to death in Liaoning Province, ranking fourth in the country. The persecution is extremely brutal in many labour camps of Liaoning Province, such as in Masanjia Slave Labour Camp, Dabei Prison and Dalian "Re-education" Centre where the conditions are described as a human hell.

Wen Jiabao arrived at the Chinese embassy at five o’clock in the afternoon. Practitioners peacefully meditated and sent forth righteous thoughts at the embassy throughout the day. They also broadcast songs composed by Dafa practitioners: “Falun Dafa is Good”, “Come for you” and “Pu Du”. The whole activity was dignified and solemn, bringing with it the Dafa’s compassion and dignity. From the bottom of their hearts, Dafa practitioners appealed to all the Chinese people: “See the truth behind those lies!”
