A group of Falun Gong practitioners from Finland, Sweden, Germany and Russia organised a ten day long ant-torture exhibition tour around five cities across Finland.

On the 22nd and 23rd of June, the group arrived at the final stop, the city of Lahti. The exhibition was held in the pedestrian area of the city centre. With good co-ordination, practitioners quickly set up banners and poster boards along with a stand for displaying leaflets and a petition book. Two practitioners who were to act out the torture scenes also got ready quickly.

Kind-hearted people expressed their sympathy and support to Falun Gong practitioners in various ways. Streams of people came to sign our petition calling for an immediate end to the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China and for the responsible officials to be brought to justice. Groups of people came to take a look at the simulation of a practitioner in a cage being beaten up by the evil police. Many of them also read the anti-torture posters.


Witnessing the torture scene, a Finnish elderly lady thought the torture scene was real and loudly questioned the ‘policeman’: “How dare you beat her up like that” After practitioners explained to her that this was only a simulation of torture that is being carried out against Falun Gong practitioners in China, she realised the situation. Later, another Finnish lady also cried out to the ‘policeman’: “Release her immediately! Release her immediately!”


Having looked at the torture enactment, another Finnish gentleman could not hide his deep sadness. He expressed his profound sorrow to practitioners and felt very sad that he could not do much to help us end this bloody persecution. He left very worried. After a while, he bought a small gift and left it inside the cage.

At one point, three Chinese people were passing by. A practitioner went forward to greet them and also wanted to give them Chinese leaflets. The two in front smiled and pointed at their bags, “We already have it.” The practitioner asked, “Have you heard of the “Nine Commentaries of CCP” published by the Epoch Times? I have a copy in hand and I can give it to you.” The two Chinese smiled and replied, “We got that too.” During the conversation, the third Chinese hurriedly extended his hand and asked his friends, “Nine Commentaries, Nine Commentaries.” Practitioner quickly gave him a copy. He put the copy into his bag and left very happily.

The five-city anti-torture exhibition tour helped many Finnish people learn the truth of Falun Gong and the brutal persecution in China. The concerns, sympathy and support expressed by the kind-hearted Finnish people will certainly encourage us to be more diligent in letting people know the truth. We strongly believe that the day when people around the world all know about the brutal and senseless persecution of Falun Gong by Jiang Zemin and the Chinese Communist party will be the day the persecution ends and the final hour of the CCP’s destruction.
