• Speech from the International Conference on "Genocide in the New Era" by Peter Müller from the International Human Rights Federation

  2004-03-31

State terrorism is when a whole nation’s resources are harnessed to terrorize its individuals into submitting to the will of the ruling party or leader. This is standard dictatorial and especially Communist practice, not only in China. The description fits exceptionally well the brutal persecution which the former Chinese President Jiang Zemin unleashed against Falun Gong practitioners in China."

• Dabei Prison Threatens Charge of "Harbouring Fugitives" if Families of Practitioners Released on Medical Bail Fail to Return the Practitioners to Prison

  2004-03-08
  As a matter of fact, "release on bail for medical treatment" is not what it appears. The so-called "release on bail for medical treatment" is in reality extortion from family members of practitioners who have been tortured to near death to pay large sums of money as "medical expenses" in exchange for the practitioners' release. If the family members cannot pay the required sums of money, there is no way for them to see their loved ones.
