On September the 3rd 2004, Swedish practitioners held the last in a series of three anti-torture exhibitions outside the administrative offices of the Gothenburg City Government.
Members of the City Executive Board in the City Council Chamber by the square could see the exhibition from their office windows. Mr Erik J Lithander, a kind gentleman and member of the board, visited the exhibitions several times to show his support.
The exhibitions attracted thousands of visitors. Many were indignant when they saw the torture methods used to force Falun Gong practitioners to denounce their beliefs. A lady asked, “What kind of people would allow these atrocities to take place?”
Falun Gong practitioners pointed out that the former Chinese head of state, Jiang Zemin, is personally responsible for the persecution that has claimed more than 1000 lives and caused enormous suffering for millions of innocent Chinese families.
