Bremen: Call For the Rescue of Persecuted Family and Friends

December 12th - International Human Rights Day

Bremen in Germany is a sister city of Dalian in Mainland China. Some Dafa practitioners in the area of Bremen are calling for the rescue of their persecuted friends and family in Dalian City.

Since Jiang initiated the persecution three years ago, the situation in Dalian has continued to worsen. Places such as Dalian Labour camp have escalated their tortures and cruel treatment of Falun Gong practitioners. Reports have come out of the labour camp of three practitioners being tortured to death.

We call for action from governmental organisations, media, human rights organisations and all good people to help safeguard the universal principles of “truthfulness, compassion and forbearance” and to help bring an end to this unprecedented disaster. We call for the right of freedom, independence of thought and for an independent investigation into the crimes committed by the Jiang regime. Most importantly, we call for the release of all Falun Gong practitioners who are illegally detained.

The following are cases of persecution experienced by German residents in China. We call for the release of all of these practitioners.
