Chu Wan-Qi, attorney in Taiwan for the "Global Public Trial of Jiang Zemin," said that the shooting incident in South Africa was more than an attempted murder, but pointed to the Jiang group's attempt to eradicate belief in "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance". She said, "We are not against the Chinese government. But we hope kind-hearted people will oppose such an international human rights persecution and prevent the Jiang group from exporting the terrorism overseas."
Guo Lin-Yong, Director of the Lawyers Association, said that the practice Falun Gong should be protected. He called on South Africa to find out the assassins and plot behind their activities.
