Falun Gong practitioners from Japan were refused to go home in China for the New Year

Twelve of us, Falun Gong practitioners from Japan (with Chinese passport), were refused to enter China on Dec. 31, 1999. We were detained at 6 pm on our arrival at the Beijing airport by China Airlines CA926. We were sent back to Japan on New Years Day morning byCA925. It was the third time for 11 of us to be refused to enter China. The first time was in Shen Zhen on Dec. 10, 1999, and the second time was in Beijing or Shanghai airport several days ago. When we asked the Chinese authorities why we were not allowed to enter our own country just because practice Falun Gong, they said they just did their job according to the order from their leaders. When we asked them when we could be allowed to go to our own home, they just kept silence. When we refused to go on the airplane sending us back to Japan, they dragged us into the airplane.

Why is China so afraid of Falun Gong practitioners who will never do any crimes? Why are they so afraid of us expressing our appeal that Falun Dafa is a righteous cultivating way?
