Germany: People and Officials in Wuerzburg Appeal to the German Government to Rescue Jiang Renzheng (Photo)

June 10, 2005

(clearwisdom.net) Since Jiang Renzheng was sentenced to three years in a forced labor camp in China shortly after his whole family was deported from the German city of Wuerzburg, Falun Gong practitioners in Wuerzburg have organized five events in the city center to call for Jiang's release. Most members of the public said they already had some knowledge of Jiang's arrest from the city's media. People deplored the German government's bad decision while gaining a lot better understanding of the persecution Falun Gong practitioners are suffering in China.

Everybody hoped the German government would immediately rescue Jiang Renzheng. Some people who had lived in Eastern Germany said with deep feeling that the Communist Party only brings tragedy, suffering and dictatorship. Its reign of terror must end before people can be happy and free.

Local Falun Gong practitioners wrote to the City Council members, the Mayor and Members of Parliament asking for their support. An MP wrote back right away, expressing his regret for such a violation of human rights. A Vice Mayor, who has always been supportive of Falun Gong, and a city councilor immediately signed the petition which asked the German Government to rescue Jiang Renzheng.

Practitioners took advantage of any opportunity possible to tell people the truth about what should not have happened in Germany and the on-going brutal persecution in China. They told the public: If it had not been for China's persecution of Falun Gong, this tragedy would not have happened. Mr. and Mrs. Jiang once took part in many activities in Wuerzburg to rescue Falun Gong practitioners persecuted in China. When they were deported to China, Mr. Jiang was arrested and sentenced to a forced labor camp. Now it's our turn to rescue him. Touched by this story, people signed the petition one after another.

On the 28th of May, the German Foreign Affairs Department organized a cultural event. Many immigrant communities participated. To take advantage of this opportunity, a practitioner who is good at dancing made a special trip from another city to perform. She talked to her fellow performers during the intermission and told them about Jiang's situation. When she them asked for petition signatures, people were thrilled to chat with her as her dance was particularly impressive. Her efforts had a great impact.

Falun Gong practitioners in Wuerzburg will find more ways and create more opportunities to tell people about the persecution in China and call for rescuing Jiang's family and their return to Germany. When everyone knows the truth, the evil persecution will end.
