• German Media Reports on a Chinese Lady from Cham Calling for Support for Human Rights

  2006-03-18
  Two German newspapers, Chamer News and Chamland Aktuell reported about the call for support by a Chinese lady from Cham. Before the Secretary of State’s official visit to China, Mrs. Teng-Schwägerl sent him a letter, requesting that he bring up the issue of human rights whilst there. At the same time, she told him about the Chinese hunger strike movement in support of human rights and in protest against the Chinese Communist Party's persecution of Falun Gong.

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

  2006-03-18
  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.

• UK Falun Gong Association Statement on the Sujiatun Concentration camp

  2006-03-17
  "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

  2006-03-17
  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.

• WOIPFG: An Investigation Report on the Death Camp in Sujiatun, Shenyang City, Liaoning Province (Part I)

  2006-03-16
  According to our initial investigation, there truly exists a large "organ market" in Sujiatun, Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, China. It is a systematic procedural practice, which includes building the death camp, detaining the "suppliers" (living Falun Gong practitioners), matching Falun Gong practitioners' organs with people who need them, surgically removing the organs, eliminating the victims' bodies and setting up the hospitals that use these stolen organs. Without any legal procedures, Falun Gong practitioners are taken to the Sujiatun death camp without anyone's knowledge. They are in complete isolation. Their bodies are cremated after their organs are harvested.

• Austria: Vienna Falun Gong Practitioners Expose the CCP's Barbaric Atrocities in Sujiatun Concentration Camp

  The practitioners' re-enactment of torture methods used by CCP agents attracted many people's attention. A banner read, "CCP's Sujiatun Concentration Camp kills, does human organ trafficking and cremates bodies". Many people were shocked at the news. They never expected that such brutal persecution is still happening in this day and age.

• European Friends of Falun Gong Statement on the Sujiatun Death Camp

  2006-03-16
  "We wish to register our serious concern at the news emanating from the Sujiatun Concentration Camp involving the severe persecution of Falun Gong practitioners and the subsequent sale of their body organs after they have died in custody. The establishment of the concentration camp is the latest in a long line of brutal activities by the CCP to suppress the Falun Gong movement in its constitutional right to freedom of belief and expression since the practice of Falun Gong was banned by the authorities in July 1999. The existence of the concentration camp would be terrible enough in itself, but for the CCP to deal in the sale of human organs represents a sinister new direction to the persecution."

• Estonian Parliamentarian: This is important for our future

  2006-03-16
  "I asked to speak to express my support for the draft resolution and to condemn the crimes of totalitarian communism – and I do that, despite the fact that I was a member of the Communist Party of Estonia. It is not now important why that was the case, but I am not proud of it today, not least because it severely hurt the feelings of my parents, who suffered under the regime. I believe that I am the sternest judge here. I hope that the efforts that I have made to terminate the regime and to build up democracy in Estonia have mitigated the harm that I did by being a member of the Communist Party."

• Lord Avebury's Statement on the Secret Concentration Camp in China

  2006-03-15
  "It is shocking to hear the allegation that a secret concentration camp in Sujiatun, Shenyang, China, has detained over 6,000 Falun Gong practitioners, and it has been engaged in the harvesting of human organs from those imprisoned Falun Gong practitioners ... The international community and the UK government should investigate these allegations and speak up loudly to condemn such brutality rather than keep quiet for commercial or political gains. This matter should be discussed at the forthcoming meeting of the UN Human Rights Commission."

• Bulgarian Parlimentarian: "It is a question not only of politics, but of humanity"

  2006-03-15
  Two months ago, I was a keynote speaker at a conference on human rights in North Korea, which was held in Seoul. What I heard at that conference and what I have learned from a documentary is so terrifying that it is hard for a normal human being to believe. This debate reminds me how evil communist regimes can be and how the absence of international condemnation of the massive human rights violations and deaths of many millions of individuals regrettably gave a chance to many dictators in the 21st century to feel untouchable by the law. It is difficult to discuss communism without emotion. It is a question not only of politics, but of humanity.

• Bulgarian Falun Gong Association Urges Governments to take Action and Condemn the Persecution

  2006-03-14
  Various human rights organisations, including the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture, who conducted an investigation in China several months ago, addresses the numerous killings, torture and violence against Falun Gong practitioners in Chinese labour camps and prisons. Up until now, more than 2,800 death cases as a result of torture have been confirmed by the Falun Gong Information Centre. It has been determined that the detention of practitioners is not motivated and is arbitrary, without due trials. Practitioners’ families, friends, and supporters are being intimidated, extorted and manipulated, while the detained are violently compelled to sign declarations denouncing their belief in Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance.

• Parliamentarian Representing Bosnia and Herzegovina: "We need to launch a national awareness campaign about crimes committed in the name of communist ideology"

  2006-03-14
  Justice must be accessible for everyone regardless of national, religious, political or ideological background. Victims of communist terror must obtain moral and material satisfaction. Selective justice and the feeling of injustice which results from it can be dangerous for a democracy, especially a society in transition, and it can slow down the democratic process. Judicial bodies must process all communist crimes and violations of human rights to return dignity and justice to victims of communist regimes.

• WOIPFG Launches Investigation of Sujiatun Concentration Camp Authorities

  2006-03-13
  The statement said that according to informants and initial verification, the Chinese Communist Party regime set up a secret concentration camp in the Sujiatun district of Shenyang city.

Reportedly, several thousand practitioners have been transferred to the camp from other regions. They are being detained in the camp and face slaughter at any time so their organs can be harvested for profit.
