(Clearwisdom.net) "Reporters Without Borders," an international non-governmental organization based in Paris, declared on the 29th of December that they publicly condemn the Chinese Regime for arresting eleven Falun Gong practitioners. The reason that the practitioners were arrested by the Chinese authorities is that they posted pictures of how they were tortured in prison on the Internet. Over twenty Falun Gong practitioners have already been put into prison for the same reason.
"Reporters Without Borders" believes that Falun Gong practitioners have the right to use the Internet to condemn the violence against them in a country where there is no free press. "Reporters Without Borders" said that the Chinese authorities' actions have severely violated human rights and freedom of expression.
One well-known victim is Liao Yuanhua, who was imprisoned for four years because he practiced Falun Gong. After his release, he was again arrested on December 2, 2004 because he published pictures showing how he was cruelly tortured while in custody. In September 2004, a Falun Gong practitioners' website carried photo reenactments of Liao being cruelly tortured in Fanjiatai Prison in Shayang City, Hubei Province.
"Reporters Without Borders" states that at least thirty people have been arrested because they posted pictures of the abuse they suffered on the Internet, expressed their support for Falun Gong or criticized the cruel torture against Falun Gong practitioners.
