(Clearwisdom.net) Jiang Renzheng and his wife Guo Rui are Falun Gong practitioners. Falun Gong is a traditional Chinese qigong practice, which is based on the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance. On March 7, 2005, Mr. Jiang, Ms. Guo and their two small children were deported from Germany to the People's Republic of China. China, without exception, persecutes all those who practice Falun Gong. Germany refused asylum to this family, because the German authorities did not believe that this family would be in any danger in China.

Upon the family's return to China, staff from the Chinese State Security Ministry interrogated Mr. Jiang, asking for information on all German Falun Gong activities and tried to have him renounce his belief in Falun Gong. On April 8, 2005, the police arrested Mr. Jiang after one month of continued harassment and intimidation tactics. They then sentenced him to three years of forced labor to be served at the Benxi Forced Labor Camp, without due legal process.

Mr. Jiang and Ms. Guo's parents were taken by surprise by this action against their children. They cried frequently and could not understand why Jiang Renzheng, who had not even once broken the law, was being subjected to this persecution.

We appeal to the German Federal Government for action regarding the immediate release of Mr. Jiang Renzheng. We are also asking that Mr. Jiang Renzheng, his wife and children be allowed to return to Germany.

Please help us correct an injustice by signing the petition in support of Mr. Jiang Renzheng and his family. Please support our petition signature collection at http://falunhr.org/te/index.php?signature=1&lang=de
