SOS Rescue Effort Launched Around Germany to Rescue Lin Wenrong

Ms. Lin Wenrong, who is studying in Düsseldorf, Germany, went back to her hometown of Wuhan to visit her family and relatives before the Chinese Spring Festival. She was arrested because she is a Falun Gong practitioner and has been imprisoned in China since then.

Lin Wenrong’s classmates and friends in Germany are very concerned about her detention. Last weekend, information was obtained verifying that she was arrested and detained on her arrival in Wuhan. Her classmates and the Falun Gong practitioners in Düsseldorf where she lives, as well as in all other parts of Germany, are launching an SOS Rescue campaign to help release her. Regarding the current situation of Ms. Lin Wenrong and the rescue effort on her behalf, a reporter interviewed Ms. Zheng. Here is a transcript of the interview:

So far all the media in Nordrhein-Westfalen, where Ms. Lin Wenrong lives, have reported on this case. In addition, the language school where she is studying held an activity to collect signatures that appealed for her immediate release so that she can return to Germany to continue her studies. The petition was handed in to the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the related government departments.
