(Minghui.org) Many people have become aware of the persecution of Falun Gong and the lawsuits being filed against former Chinese dictator Jiang Zemin because of the efforts of practitioners to clarify the truth.

3579 people in Zunhua and Tangshan, both in Hebei Province, have signed petitions to show they are in favor of reporting Jiang's crimes to the Chinese Supreme People's Procuratorate and Supreme People's Court.

Some who gave their signatures wanted more details. One man in Hebei said, “Signing the petition is the least we can do as a human being.”

Falun Gong practitioners in Hegnshui, Hebei Province, asked people to “stand on the side of justice.” Many were happy to sign the petition in support of those who are filing criminal complaints against Jiang.

In one village, most of the inhabitants who signed said that Jiang must be brought to justice for his crimes in the persecution of Falun Gong and live organ harvesting.

Background

In 1999, Jiang Zemin, as head of the Chinese Communist Party, overrode other Politburo standing committee members and launched the violent suppression of Falun Gong.

The persecution has led to the deaths of many Falun Gong practitioners over the past 16 years. More have been tortured for their belief and even killed for their organs. Jiang Zemin is directly responsible for the inception and continuation of the brutal persecution.

Under his personal direction, the Chinese Communist Party established an extralegal security organ, the “610 Office,” on June 10, 1999. The organization overrides police forces and the judicial system in carrying out Jiang's directive regarding Falun Gong: to ruin their reputations, cut off their financial resources, and destroy them physically.

Chinese law allows for citizens to be plaintiffs in criminal cases, and many practitioners are now exercising that right to file criminal complaints against the former dictator.
