Outside the parliament building, the practitioners’ appeal and exercise demonstration was peaceful and serene. Local media reporters were present and MEPs from different countries stopped to get more information from the practitioners. Lots of practitioners met MEPs from their own countries who said they would pay close attention to the recent incidents in France.

On February 14, Falun Gong practitioners from the United Kingdom held a press conference and candlelight vigil to protest the Chinese authorities' brutal persecution of Dafa practitioners during the last three months. Practitioners called to bring Jiang Zemin, Luo Gan, Liu Jing and Zhou Yongkang to justice.

"I would like to express that on different occasions the Swedish government had censured the Chinese government on its torture of Falun Gong practitioners. Of course, we will continue to do so. We are absolutely against the violent treatment of peaceful citizens making appeals and oppose the arrest and torture of Falun Gong practitioners who are thrown into prisons or labour camps."

To avoid being subjected to their persecution again, Ms. Li tore a bed sheet, tied the pieces into a rope and attempted to lower herself to the ground. In the process she broke a fifth floor window and accidentally fell. Her ribs and internal organs were severely damaged as a result of the fall. Tragically she died. Her body was sent to the mortuary at 7:30 p.m. the same day, and she was cremated on December 6th, 2003.

One of these prisoners, Pan Aihua, told Ms. Gong, "You had better write those four letters of repentance quickly or what you just experienced in the small room was nothing. I will use a stick to poke you until you die [referring to sexual abuse]." As Pan clarified the truth of the persecution to the inmates, Wan Yalin quickly said to Ms. Gong, "They are just trying to frighten you. There is no such thing." She turned back and went downstairs still angry

In June, the Chief of the Board Section, Sha Huiming, threatened him: "There are so many people in China. We can beat you to death and it would be just like trampling an ant, no one will care."...Brigade Chief, Zhong Zhiyuan, presided over a mobilization meeting and yelled: "The Wuyuan Forced Labour Camp will fulfill 100% of our 'Transformation Ratio.' When one practitioner arrives, we will transform him. After we transform all the practitioners here, we can transfer those practitioners who have not been transformed from labour camps all over the country to here. We can forcibly transform them all."

Starting on March 8, 2003, all of the inmates from the No. 9 Brigade of the Jiamusi Labour Camp, totalling more than 80 people, were forced to make mobile phone cases. The plastic was of poor quality and gave off an irritating smell that brought about a harsh choking sensation. Through lab testing, it was determined that the toxin levels in the materials used were well beyond the industry standard, and could cause cancer. Police agents wore large face masks while guarding us, and never entered the production area while we were working there.

It does not matter if the actions of the French police were completely unjustifiable or if some articles of the so-called “laws” were available to justify their actions, we should not have let them arrest and detain us at will. Truth clarification is an act of enormous mercy, why should we be arrested and taken to the police station because of it? By doing what they have done, the French police have failed to take responsibility for their future, and we should help them by clarifying the truth.

On February 15, 2004, several dozen Dafa practitioners in the Guandong Area of Japan gathered outside the Chinese Embassy in Tokyo, and unfurled three banners that read, "Bring Jiang Zemin to Justice," and "Put Jiang on Trial" in both Chinese and Japanese.

In the genocide lawsuit filed by seven Taiwanese Falun Gong practitioners against Luo Gan, Li Lanqing and former Chinese head of state Jiang Zemin, Taiwan's High Court reached a verdict of "jurisdictional error." The attorney representing the Falun Gong practitioners expressed her disagreement and appealed the case to the Taiwan Supreme Court.

Recently, it was reported that a number of Falun Gong practitioners in China died as a result of the persecution, and more practitioners were imprisoned and tortured. For this reason, on the morning of February 14, some Falun Gong practitioners from Australia held a press conference outside the Chinese Embassy in Canberra.
