Torture

  • Destroying Eyewitnesses Within "Three Months"

    The International reaction has been one of outrage since the horrifying activities against Falun Gong practitioners at Sujiatun were made public. It took more than twenty days for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to release a formal response. The prevailing perception by outsiders is that the CCP has destroyed all physical evidence relating to the allegations. According to reliable sources, staff at Tianjin First Central Hospital performed many more liver and kidney transplants in late March than ever before. The surgeries were always performed at night. Why has this hospital suddenly such a large supply of organs (livers and kidneys)? The Chinese Communist Party is stepping up their elimination of "live witnesses" in all concentration camps.
