Under the situation that the verdict of the Hong Kong "political trial" was repeatedly postponed, Falun Gong practitioners from Berlin came to realize that we should fully utilize this period of time to clarify the truth and expose this injustice to all people.

As soon as the exercise performance started, many tourists gathered on the sidewalks, and their cameras were flashing one after another. We managed to give out a few thousand copies of Dafa leaflets. The audience even queued up to sign their names on the petition to stop the persecution.

On August 13, 2002, Falun Gong practitioners from Stockholm, Sweden protested in front of the Chinese Embassy in Sweden, urging the Hong Kong government to immediately dismiss the false accusation against the sixteen innocent Falun Gong practitioners. They also called on Sweden and the international community to pay attention to this political trial against Falun Gong practitioners, which was initiated by the Hong Kong police under heavy pressure from Jiang Zemin's regime.

"Hong Kong must not be allowed to go down the same path of persecution which has so blighted life in China over the last three years. Hong Kong must stand up to Jiang Zemin and his murderous treachery. Hong Kong, you must release these 16 innocent practitioners in the name of ‘Truth, Compassion and Forbearance’"

I'm sure that helping Jiang with killing his own people, and good people who merely want to be better through practising Falun Gong, is the last thing you would like to do. I'm certain that, upon knowing the truth and facts of the persecution, you'll feel as worried and anxious for these two people as I do.
