Human Rights Lawyer Calls for Exerting Pressure on CCP to Stop Its Crimes of Live Organ Removal

July 19, 2006

(Clearwisdom.net) A Canadian human rights lawyer called on Hong Kong activists to exert pressure on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime to stop the CCP's crimes of seizing vital organs from living Falun Gong practitioners.

VOA reported on July 17 that Canadian human rights lawyer David Matas said on Monday that Hong Kong has intimate relations with China, and many changes are possible if the Hong Kong people exert pressure on the CCP. Mr. Matas conducted an independent investigation on allegations of the CCP's crimes of live organ removal. He said that we didn't expect that China would admit the incident in public. But we can have people urge the regime to take action. It would be an active step forward.

The report stated that David Matas, international human rights lawyer, and David Kilgour, former Secretary of State (Asia-Pacific) for Canada formed an independent investigation team and recently finished their investigation. They released their report last week in Ottawa, which indicated that obtaining evidence in China is difficult, but there is no evidence to rebut the allegation.

Falun Gong practitioners claim that the CCP regime unlawfully imprisons Falun Gong practitioners and kills many of these prisoners, and that the CCP seizes their vital organs, including hearts, kidney, and liver, without their consent, seeking huge profits.

In China more than 300 hospitals conduct organ transplantation. One hospital in Tianjin conducted more than 1600 organ transplantation surgeries in 2004 alone.
