(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners recently held activities to raise awareness of the ongoing persecution in China. They demonstrated the exercises and collected signatures on a petition calling to end the persecution in China at Place d’Italie and Belleville, Paris, on October 25 and 28, 2025.
Located in the 13th Arrondissement of Paris, Place d’Italie is located in a large commercial center, with the arrondissement government building located on the other side of the square. Practitioners set up a booth facing the commercial center on Saturday, October 25. People watching practitioners demonstrate the five sets of Falun Gong exercises learned that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecutes those who follow Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance in China. They were also informed about the CCP’s state-sanctioned forced organ harvesting of prisoners of conscience. Stunned and indignant over the atrocities, many people signed the petition calling for an end to the persecution.

“This Inhuman Harvesting of Human Organs Is Absolutely Insane!”
Social worker Nathalie passed by the practitioners’ event and was dismayed to hear about the CCP’s persecution of Falun Gong and the forced organ harvesting. She said, “This arbitrary harvesting of human organs is absolutely insane! The victims will die because of it.” She said that she would share this information and videos on her webpage to support Falun Gong as much as possible. Before leaving, she said to the practitioners, “Thank you for coming here and having the courage to let the truth be known. Good luck to you!”
Mr. Jean-Paul Deroche, who works at a museum in Paris and is also an art teacher, said that it is absurd for the CCP to persecute Falun Gong practitioners who are totally apolitical. Furthermore, he said he finds it truly stunning that the CCP tortures people and harvests their organs while they are still alive, in order to sell to international buyers.
Mrs. Deroche said that she had difficulty understanding how good people who practice the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance could pose a threat to a regime. She questioned the barbarity of forced organ harvesting, asking whether the Chinese people were aware of these practices, or whether they remained silent out of fear, or whether they had become accustomed to the issue.
We Must Spread This Message and Let It Circulate Among the People
Malika Annjar is a nurse who works in a hospital’s intensive care unit. She spoke with Falun Gong practitioners for a long time. She thought the persecution was truly severe, and that human rights are trampled upon in China.
“We must spread this message and let it circulate among the people, so that people can take action. Those people at the top, like political party leaders, the government—everyone must unite to stop this massacre. This is worse than genocide; it’s harvesting organs from people for sale. This isn’t human; it’s demononic, truly evil. They have no heart, no conscience, nothing at all,” she commented.
Ms. Annjar expressed her deep sorrow for the Falun Gong practitioners who died as a result of the persecution: “It’s truly unfortunate and heartbreaking.”
People Should Adhere to Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance in Their Daily Lives
Practitioners organized another information day event in Belleville, Paris on October 28, which drew many residents who came to the market to buy groceries.

Dearrit, a tour agent, said, “Harvesting organs from a person is inhumane, dehumanizing. It’s an act of evil! Directly taking a person’s life, depriving them of their right to live, is extremely unjust, it’s dictatorship. I think these acts are like the devil, they are all evil.”
Indra Feldman is a tour guide. She said that people need values such as Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, especially Compassion, just as fertile soil is needed to nurture beautiful trees.
Sabrina said she believes that forced organ harvesting is inconceivable. She hoped the petition could help Chinese Falun Gong practitioners out of their predicament. “It’s already 2025. We can’t believe there are still people living in such a situation. It’s truly horrific,” she said.
