(Clearwisdom.net) After the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) crimes of removing organs from living Falun Gong practitioners and cremating their bodies to destroy the evidence was exposed, people have taken action. The Falun Dafa Association and Minghui/Clearwisdom website have launched the "Coalition to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong in China (CIPFG)," and are collecting evidence from all sources. Please find below recently discovered information. We sincerely hope that people who are aware of relevant facts will step forward and expose the cruel killing of Falun Dafa practitioners, as well as the collusion among forced labor camps, prisons and hospitals in China, and thus help stop the persecution.
Investigation Lead: Head Surgeons Who Performed Kidney Transplants
Information from March 2006 revealed that since 2000, Falun Gong practitioners held in labor camps, prisons, concentration camps and other facilities in China have had their organs removed while they were still alive, and their bodies were cremated to destroy the evidence. Doctors who perform organ transplant surgeries in China became targets of investigations. On April 13, 2006, an article entitled "Two Couples Exchange Kidneys" was published on page 7 of the Tianshui Evening News. According to an article on the Xinhua Net, "Four medical doctors carried out the procedure, which included Zeng Fanjun, the Tongji (in Wuhan) Hospital's transplant clinical head, who has the experience of having performed 110 live kidney transplant surgeries. Chen Zhonghua, director of the Organ Transplant Research Institute at the hospital said..." This information reveals that four doctors, including Zeng Fanjun, jointly performed the kidney transplant, and Chen Zhonghua, director of the Organ Transplant Research Institute, participated in the procedure. More information was revealed from the message below, "It was learned that so far 2,700 kidney transplants have been completed at Tongji Hospital, among which 4% constituted transplant surgeries among relatives, and two surgeries were a live kidney transplant between a married couple."
From the above data, among the 2,700 kidney transplants, after we exclude the 4%, the transplants among relatives and the 0.007% between a couple, only 4.007% of the total surgeries were mentioned, the remaining 96% of the kidney transplant cases, making up the vast majority, are left unmentioned. We ask that the international community conduct an in-depth investigation of the Tongji Hospital in Wuhan City.
Investigation Lead: In 2001, Falun Gong Practitioners at the Pingantai Labor Camp in Gansu Province Underwent Thorough Physical Exams
I was illegally held and tortured between 2001 and 2002 at the Pingantai Labor Camp in Gansu Province. In the winter of 2001, we [Falun Gong practitioners] underwent thorough physical examinations. All young and fit practitioners were called away, but four practitioners including myself were diagnosed as being ill.
Investigation Lead: Liver Transplant for Woman With Rare Blood Type Points to the CCP Having an Enormous Organ Bank
On Tuesday, June 6, 2006, an article entitled "Successful Liver Transplant for Woman With Rare Blood Type" was published on the front page of the Health Weekly edition of the Hebei Science Newspaper, as reported by Wang Qing and Cha Li from the Handan City Central Hospital. The story reads as follows:
Ms. Pei, 45 years old, was diagnosed with liver cirrhosis 14 years ago. Twelve years ago she had her spleen removed, but her condition steadily worsened. She was later diagnosed with hepatic encephalopathy and hepatic myelopathy, and repeated hepatic coma, among other complications. Her blood type is the rare AB RH neg. Only two out of 1,000 people have this blood type. On April 18, 2006, this patient was hospitalized at Section 1 of the General Outpatient Section at the Handan City Central Hospital. While preparing for the surgery, the medical staff started searching for a matching liver and the unique type of blood for transfusion that is in short supply. We are told the medical staff at Section 1 of the General Outpatient Section at the Handan City Central Hospital were able to find a "fresh" liver for a woman with a rare blood type within 24 days. Unless the CCP is harvesting Falun Gong practitioners' organs on a massive scale, how could such a "miracle" otherwise happen? Can those who took part in the process at this hospital explain to the public the source of this liver?
Investigation Lead: The CCP Holds Second Sports Contest for Organ Recipients

All of the athletes had received organ transplants in China in recent years. More than 300 participants were Chinese, and 50 participants were foreigners, including some from the UK.
