Germany: Deutsche Presse-Agentur (DPA) Reports that Hong Kong Woman Jailed in China for Distributing Falun Gong Leaflets

May 22, 2004

(Clearwisdom.net) DPA reported on May 17, 2004, Monday that a Hong Kong female Falun Gong practitioner, Fu Xueying was imprisoned in China for handing out Falun Gong flyers. The report stated, "The Hong Kong husband of a Falun Gong follower jailed for handing out leaflets in China pleaded Monday to be allowed to see his wife. Fung Chi-man says he has not seen or heard from wife Fu Xueying, 28, since she was arrested in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen six months ago. He was told earlier this month that she had been jailed for three years but said he has been refused even a brief meeting with her and has no idea where she is being detained."

Fung said that he repeatedly called the judge responsible for her case and got no information. Fu, a Falun Gong practitioner moved to Hong Kong last year. She was arrested for handing out flyers in Shenzhen, a city near Hong Kong and detained since then.

Falun Gong is a peaceful practice system for both mind and body improvement based on universal principles "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance". Falun Gong has spread to over 60 countries and over 100 millions people have benefited from the practice. However, in China, the peaceful and beneficial practice is persecuted. The former leader Jiang Zemin and his followers carry out the inhumane persecution, which has resulted in over 960 deaths of documented cases and hundreds of thousands practitioners being imprisoned in jails, labor camps, detention centers and mental hospitals. Jiang and his followers have been sued in many countries for their torture, genocide and crimes against humanity.

DPA also stated, "A group of around 25 Falun Gong members marched through Hong Kong Sunday demanding the release of Fu and another follower arrested in November for carrying Falun Gong literature from Hong Kong to China."
