(Clearwisdom.net) The Spanish National Court recently indicted five high-ranking Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials, including former Communist Party head Jiang Zemin and Luo Gan, Bo Xilai, Jia Qinglin, and Wu Guanzheng, on charges of genocide and torture of Falun Gong practitioners. Hsishen County Council Member Hsie Ming-hsu and others expressed their admiration and support.
Senior Council Member Hsie Ming-hsu said, "Spain is a country with justice and it is valuable to make such a decision at this moment. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and Jiang's regime bully people and must be stopped. People should tell right from wrong."
He continued, "The CCP has persecuted Falun Gong brutally for ten years. Charging Jiang is retribution, because his persecution of Falun Gong must be condemned."
Bo Xilai, one of the defendants, will possibly visit Taiwan. Mr. Hsie said, "It is inappropriate to allow such a person to visit Taiwan. It is an insult to the people of Taiwan."
Mr. Hsie pointed out that the CCP interferes with Taiwan at every opportunity, and that the Taiwanese people should be clear-headed and not be deceived by the CCP.
The Director of the Taidong Volunteer Association said, "The Spanish court decision on the lawsuit against Jiang and others can be a warning to those who abuse human rights. There are more than ten billion people in China. Under the control of the CCP, only economic development is emphasized, but human rights and spiritual education are ignored. That is dangerous."
Background
Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, is a traditional Chinese spiritual discipline for mind and body. The practice involves slow, gentle movements and meditation. It is easy to learn, enjoyable to practice, and free of charge. Its principles are based on Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. The practice began in China in 1992 and quickly spread by word of mouth throughout China and then beyond. Its beneficial effects in uplifting an individual's physical health, spiritual well-being and moral character, not to mention its positive influence in the community and society as a whole, have been undeniable. In fact, Falun Gong is practiced by over 100 million people in more than 100 countries. The main works of Falun Gong are available in over 30 languages.
On July 20, 1999, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) launched a brutal persecution of Falun Gong. Since the start of the persecution, Falun Gong practitioners throughout the world have been speaking out about the truth of Falun Gong and exposing the CCP's crimes in a tireless effort to end the persecution.
The atrocities of Jiang Zemin, the former head of the CCP, and his followers are becoming known internationally. Human rights lawyers across the world have filed lawsuits against Jiang and his followers for their roles in the persecution.
