Slovakia: Protest at SNP Square in Bratislava Raises Awareness of the Persecution in China

Sept. 6, 2008

(Clearwisdom.net) Practitioners gathered at SNP Square in downtown Bratislava on Friday, August 21 to raise awareness about the persecution in China, particularly in light of the stepped up suppression in the name of so-called "Olympic security." Many people signed a petition expressing their support for efforts to end the persecution. In addition, the media were informed about a recent report from the CIPFG presenting evidence of organ harvesting atrocities. The report documents telephone conversations with officials from about a dozen hospitals. The officials admit to the availability of organs for transplant surgery freshly harvested from Falun Gong practitioners.

Many people stopped at the banners and could hardly believe their eyes. "Of course I will sign your petition, I don't want people anywhere to be persecuted," said a passing by girl, after our request to support our petition. "Could you give me one more leaflet? I will take it home," said an elderly man.

People were happy to accept paper lotus flowers given by practitioners as a symbol of purity in the face of adversity.

About 150 people signed the petition that day.
