  • European Friends of Falun Gong Write to the British Medical Association about the Chinese Concentration Camp

    "News has emanated from China in recent days that the CCP is selling the body organs of Falun Gong practitioners killed in one of its detention centres, the Sujiatun Concentration Camp in Northern China, to foreign buyers. The establishment of this concentration camp is severe enough in the government’s 7-year campaign to suppress and crush those who exercise their democratic right to freedom of belief and expression by practising Falun Gong, but for the CCP to deal in the sale of their organs both in China and abroad shows a callousness and brutality beyond anything we have seen before."

On top of the wall are electrified barbed-wire meshes. The camp is intensively guarded and kept confidential.

  • Lithuanian Parliamentarian: “Communist regimes killed many people”

    "We became a non-country in the Soviet Union, and we did not have any true history books, as they consisted of only 10 pages. Communist regimes and crimes by communist criminals took away our conscience in the form of our religion. Many things were forbidden, as I know from personal experience. The communists took away our minds. Many branches of art and of science were forbidden, so they took away our humanity. As a result, sometimes we cannot assess or condemn the things that happened."

  • French Parliamentarian: Defenders of human rights should condemn the crimes of communism

    Mr Schreiner praised the report as clear and courageous. Although Nazism and its followers have been brought to trial and condemned, communist perpetrators of human rights abuses have not. Communist crimes are as bad as those of Nazism. Communism has been responsible for the extermination of millions of innocent people, but little mention has been made of that in school history syllabuses. Mr Schreiner said politicians have been prudent in denouncing communism while communist regimes still exist. They need to move from their polite silence and etiquette on communism.
  • United Kingdom: Protesting at the Chinese Embassy Against the CCP’s Secret Concentration Camp

  • UK Falun Gong Association Statement on the Sujiatun Concentration camp

    "This is deeply, terribly disturbing, and confirms our worst fears: that CCP authorities remain intent on “eradicating” Falun Gong and in their desperation will go to any lengths. We need to be clear that the persecution has not gone away—it has merely become darker and more hidden. If Falun Dafa practitioners are sent to Sujiatun they have no chance of coming out ... The CCP won’t let a prisoner consume food forever. So what are they up to, then? The Falun Dafa practitioners are killed for their organs, which are sent off to various medical facilities. Organ sales are now a highly profitable business in China. They can't find enough bodies through executions, and no bodies are more readily available for this business than those of the[Falun Dafa practitioners."
  • Bulgarian Parliamentarian: The communist regime undermined human rights and the identity of human beings

    Bulgaria was not spared the excesses of the totalitarian communist regime. Between 1984 and 1989, Bulgarians had been imprisoned without trial in prison camps because they had been against the regime or because they had not been sympathetic to communism. Approximately 200,000 people had been imprisoned without trial, of whom 30,000 had been killed. In addition, thousands had “disappeared”. Between the years 1984 and 1989, there had been many flagrant abuses of human rights through violence, assassinations and incarceration in camps.
