France: Telling People the Facts and Appealing for Justice

On Sunday the 7th of September 2003, French Falun Dafa practitioners accompanied Ms. Dai Zhizhen in an activity to let more people know about the crimes that are being committed against Falun Gong practitioners in China. Ms. Dai's husband is one was persecuted to death by the Jiang regime because he practised Falun Gong. Ms. Dai is one of the plaintiffs in a lawsuit launched against Jiang Zemin in Belgium.

On the morning of September the 7th, a couple of days after arriving in France, the media interviewed Ms. Dai. That morning, practitioners practised the Falun Gong exercises together in a large park in Paris and a lot of television reporters came to interview Ms. Dai’s and some other practitioners. The interviews lasted about two hours. All of the reporters were shocked by the persecution in China, and assured us that they would do whatever they could to let the French public know about the persecution and the slander that Falun Gong practitioners have suffered.

In the afternoon, Ms. Dai and the French practitioners went to Chinatown in Paris to expose the torture that her husband had suffered, the crimes of Jiang Zemin and the truth about Falun Dafa. Chinese people listened carefully to her words in both Chinese and French, while other practitioners distributed leaflets and Video-CDs.

Journalists from “Radio France Internationale” reported on the event, just one day after personally interviewing Ms. Dai. A reporter from Algeria, who is working for several newspapers in Paris said, “I sincerely hope to do something to end this atrocity. I would like to interview Ms. Dai to spread her story in our newspaper. Please inform me of the next activity because I hope take part in it with you.”
