Cyprus: Letting the Cypriot People Know about the Evil Persecution in China

After hearing that Wu Guanzheng was visiting Cyprus, practitioners from eight European countries, together with Australian citizens Dai Zhizhen and her daughter Fadu, travelled to Nicosia. Their purpose was to inform the Cypriot people about the ongoing persecution of Falun Gong in China and the evil crimes that Wu has committed against practitioners in Shandong province.

Human right abuser Wu Guanzheng is currently a member of the Chinese Communist Party Politburo Standing Committee and has played a key role in the four-year campaign of persecution that has claimed the lives of at least 805 Falun Gong practitioners in China. During his time as party leader of Shandong Province, he gave the orders “maintain sharp political vigilance” and “focus on cracking down on Falun Gong.” The death cases of Chen Zixiu and Wang Lixuan, as well as her eight-month-old baby, are just three of the 92 documented murder cases in Shandong.

Falun Gong practitioners held a peaceful demonstration in front of the hotel where Wu was staying as well as in front of the Parliament where Wu was to visit. When police, security guards, media and other people learned the truth, they were shocked and all of them offered their support to Falun Gong practitioners.

Wherever they went, Wu and his delegation could not avoid seeing Falun Gong practitioners and Dafa banners, or hearing the peaceful voice of practitioners saying “Falun Dafa Hao” [Falun Dafa is good].

In front of the Parliament, practitioners were positioned across the street where the delegation parked. This was fifteen metres away from Wu when he arrived. He could see practitioners very clearly. It seemed Wu had mistaken a western practitioner who was standing at the Parliament door for one of the Cypriot Government leaders. Wu walked up to the practitioner and shook his hand. With a smile on his face, the practitioner said “Falun Dafa Hao”.
