Beware the Murderer Who Invites the Police to the Scene of the Crime to Investigate

If a murder were reported to the police, would the police wait until the murderer invited them to his home three weeks later to investigate? Would you expect such an investigation to yield any murder weapon or evidence?

Three weeks after the news that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been harvesting organs from living Falun Gong practitioners for profit, officials from the U.S. Embassy in Beijing and the consulate in Shenyang visited the scene of the crime in Sujiatun on an investigation tour arranged by the CCP. Naturally, no evidence of the organ harvesting was found.

The CCP had three weeks to move and destroy witnesses and evidence. The tour was arranged by the CCP. How could such an "investigation" be of any use? The CCP has a long history of lies covering up its murderous actions, from the Great Leap Forward in the 1950s to SARS in 2004. They even went so far as to paint grass green in public parks to cover up the truth and deceive Olympic officials visiting Beijing. When such an experienced liar arranges a tour, the investigators may unwittingly become pawns in the murderer's hand.

The organ harvesting exposed at Sujiatun was only the tip of the iceberg. The brutal persecution of Falun Gong in the last seven years in all the labour camps, prisons, brainwashing sessions, and mental hospitals, are the iceberg under the surface. The tip of the iceberg cannot exist without the iceberg. Hiding the tip also does not mean the iceberg never existed or has disappeared.

Three weeks have passed since the news broke that the CCP has orchestrated organ harvesting from live Falun Gong practitioners. The investigators should not merely follow the CCP's arrangements and try to collect evidence after the fact. Instead, they should demand that the CCP allow them to visit and independently investigate all labour camps, prisons, brainwashing centres, mental hospitals, and other facilities where Falun Gong practitioners are or have been detained. Such an investigation would be responsible and credible.

In June 1944, the Nazis permitted the Red Cross to tour the Theresienstadt concentration camp. The concentration camp was dressed up as a peaceful, beautiful community with cafés and shops. The international community was deceived. Today, the CCP, which is even more brutal and devious than the Nazis, has set up the same trap. The international community, media, and governments of various countries should not repeat its mistake.

The Falun Dafa Association and Clearwisdom.net have founded a "Committee to Investigate the Facts," requesting a comprehensive, independent investigation on the CCP's persecution against Falun Gong for the last seven years in the locations where the practitioners were detained. We welcome international organisations, including representatives from the United States government, to join this committee, and to join us in truly investigating the CCP's crimes
