  • Sweden: Letter from a Swediish Practitioner to the Singapore Government

    "I read in the newspaper today that a trial was held on January 22nd, 2007, of six Falun Gong practitioners who distributed flyers about the persecution of Falun Gong two years ago ... Apparently no family members, media or supporters have been allowed to attend the trial ... I wonder if Singapore, like all other democratic countries in the world, should show her support and sympathy to these people who simply want to inform the public about a horrible on-going persecution in China. How could they have been so maltreated in Singapore?"

    "Six Falun Gong practitioners were in twos or threes distributing materials about the persecution of Falun Gong in mainland China on Wujie road. The party concerned did not have an intention of breaking Singaporean law. In such a condition, as soon as the police pointed it out, the party concerned removed their banners and abided by the order. We feel it very difficult to understand why the court in Singapore insisted on seizing this point and striking Falun Gong practitioners without considering the outcome if they do not have any political factors behind them."
