Switzerland: Falun Gong Practitioners hold an Anti-Torture Exhibition in Baden (Photos)

Nov. 1, 2004

(Clearwisdom.net) Swiss practitioners held an anti-torture exhibition to expose the crimes of the Jiang regime in the City of Baden on October 20. Similar exhibitions have already been held in Zurich, Basel, Luzern, Bern and Solothurn. Some German practitioners also joined the activity.

People stop to watch the anti-torture exhibition and the photos displaying the Journey of Falun Dafa People stop to watch the anti-torture exhibition and the photos displaying the Journey of Falun Dafa A group of young people immediately sign the petition in support of Falun Gong after they learn about the facts

Many people came to the exhibition to see the reenactments of the tortures that are being used on Chinese Falun Gong practitioners to try to force them to give up their belief. Pictures of the persecution were also displayed alongside the anti-torture exhibition. People found it hard to believe that former Chinese leader Jiang Zemin would order China's policemen to carry out such barbaric crimes against people who just want to practice their qigong exercises in peace and live by the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance. When some youths that had heard about the persecution met their classmates, they told them about it. These young people immediately signed our petition calling for an end to the suppression of Falun Gong. They said that they would explain the situation to their friends and relatives.

An elderly lady pointed to Jiang's picture and said, "He will be punished in Hell!"

When an elderly lady saw the torture demonstration and the pictures, she shook her head and said, "It's too cruel. It's unbelievable." When she saw a photograph of a Dafa practitioner who had been tortured until she was emaciated, but with an enlarged belly, she asked whether pregnant women were also tortured. Practitioners told her that her belly was swollen because she was beaten so seriously by the police that an internal injury caused the swelling. When the lady heard this, she said angrily, "These policemen are sadists." Practitioners told her how the Jiang faction not only forced Dafa practitioners to have abortions, even when they were seven or eight months pregnant, but they even tortured an eight-month-old child to death. The old lady said several times, "It's such an unforgivable crime!" When she signed her name on the petition, she told Dafa practitioners, "I know there is Heaven and Hell in the world." She pointed at Jiang's picture and said, "He will go to Hell!"

"Please give me more Video-CDs and leaflets. I want to help distribute them."

A woman who had just returned from New York came over to the exhibition and told practitioners, "I saw Falun Gong on all the streets of New York. I definitely believe Falun Dafa is good. It's unreasonable and unbelievable that China (the Jiang regime) can so cruelly persecute Falun Gong practitioners. I want to help and support Falun Gong in my own way. Please give me more VCDs and leaflets. I want to help distribute them." Practitioners felt that she was very sincere. They gave her some VCDs and leaflets.

"Jiang and those policemen have no humanity!"

A group of young people between sixteen and nineteen years old asked some questions after watching the torture reenactment and seeing the pictures of torture. Practitioners answered all their questions. They also patiently explained the pictures showing more than one hundred cruel methods of persecution. They told the young people that it was not easy to get those pictures out of China because the Jiang regime seals China off from the outside world. Practitioners in China have to risk their lives to send those pictures overseas. There have been 1,089 practitioners persecuted to death but these are only the documented death cases. According to some sources, the number of practitioners who have been persecuted to death has exceeded three thousand. One young person said, "We knew that there are no human rights in China and that Falun Gong is being persecuted, but we did not know it was so cruel!" "Jiang and those policemen have no humanity!" Other people said, "They are worse than beasts."

"The World Needs Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance."

We held an activity in the city of Baden last year. One Dafa practitioner made banners reading, "The World Needs Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance," "Life Needs Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance," and "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" in Chinese for people. This year, one young woman said happily, "I have the banner, 'The World Needs Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance' and have already hung it on the wall in my home. A Falun Gong practitioner made it for me last year." The young woman even explained what "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" is to a group of young people. The young people nodded in agreement and said, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!"
