UK: Letter from the Falun Gong Association (UK) to Hong Kong CSA
2002-08-17
"The Magistrate's verdict in the trial of the 16 Falun Gong practitioners underscores his failure to find the inner strength and courage to follow the rule of law in the face of undue pressure and influence from Beijing. As an important member of the Hong Kong government you may wish to consider the international impact of the trial on the long-term development of Hong Kong. We hope that you will reverse the verdict as soon as possible and return Hong Kong to the rule of law." -
