Australian Organization Submits List of Persecutors' Names to the Government, Requests Ban on Their Entry into Australia

Feb. 27, 2005 |   By Falun Gong practitioners in Australia

(Clearwisdom.net) The Australian Association of Legal Assistance for Persecuted Falun Gong Practitioners has recently submitted a list of names to the relevant Australian authorities, which includes 94 Chinese Communist Party officials who are actively persecuting Falun Gong practitioners in China. The Association is requesting the Australian government to deny entry to those who perpetrate crimes against humanity. This list includes Jiang Zemin, the former President of China, those principal members of the notorious 610 Office, set up solely to persecute people who practice Falun Gong, and those persons in charge of the forced labor camps that are heavily involved in the persecution of Falun Gong.

Falun Gong is a cultivation way from the Buddha School that benefits both the mind and body. It was made public by Mr. Li Hongzhi in 1992, and within seven years, until the persecution began in July 1999, it has been practiced by approximately one hundred million people in China alone. If we look at Falun Gong today, we can see that it has been spread to more than 60 countries all over the world and received more than a thousand proclamations and awards from all levels of governments in many countries. However, only in China is Falun Gong severely and unprecedentedly persecuted.

So far, the verified deaths of Falun Gong practitioners in China as a result of the persecution have reached 1,353, while the actual number of deaths is probably far beyond that. When more information becomes available, the details of these practitioners' suffering will be made public. There are also countless Falun Gong practitioners suffering torture and inhuman abuse in prisons, forced labor camps and brainwashing centers across China.

The list of perpetrators provided by the Australian Association of Legal Assistance for Persecuted Falun Gong Practitioners, are all people who have actively participated in the persecution of Falun Gong and who have committed severe crimes against humanity, including torture and genocide. Some of these people have been sued in many countries.

According to Australian law, whoever is guilty of crimes against humanity is prohibited from entering Australian territory. Therefore, the Australian Association of Legal Assistance for Persecuted Falun Gong Practitioners submitted the name list, so that the Australian government and the people of Australia can utilize the relevant international and Australian regulations, to supervise the criminals' whereabouts and use justice to help reveal and terminate their crimes against humanity.
