(Clearwisdom.net) On May 30, 2005, Falun Dafa practitioners filed a lawsuit with the local prosecutor's office in Seoul, charging Bo Xilai (male) with persecuting Falun Gong, participating in genocide, engaging in illegal arrests, unjustifiable imprisonment, torture, and other charges. The file was formally accepted on the morning of May 31, 2005. Planning to attend the APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) Summit on June 2, 2005, on Cheju Island, Korea, Bo Xilai was scheduled to arrive in Korea on June 1, 2005.
After twice acting as mayor of Dalian City since 1993, Bo Xilai was designated as a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Liaoning Province standing committee member and CCP Dalian City committee secretary in September 1999. He actively followed Jiang in persecuting Falun Gong after the persecution started in 1999. Under the direction of Bo Xilai, Dalian became the most notorious region in China for persecution. At least fifteen practitioners were tortured to death in Dalian. Bo Xilai was quickly promoted for his contributions toward the persecution. He was assigned as the governor of Liaoning Province in 2001. Liaoning Province became well known for severely persecuting Falun Gong. He invested a huge sum of money, one billion yuan, to build prisons for detaining Falun Dafa practitioners.
Bo Xilai helped Jiang persecute Falun Gong so diligently, that he won Jiang's trust, and was named the Minister of Commerce directly from his provincial secretary position.
After Bo Xilai was sued for genocide in Washington DC in 2004, he was also sued by Falun Dafa practitioners in the United Kingdom, Holland, Russia, and three other countries.
Bo Xilai is also one of the prime suspects in hiring a gunman to shoot Australian practitioner David Liang. The incident happened on June 28, 2004, when Bo was visiting South Africa together with Zeng Qinhong (male), Jiang's main helper in persecuting Falun Gong.
Plaintiffs pointed out that the brutal persecution of Falun Gong by the CCP is still going on in China. Lawsuits against Bo Xilai are to warn others who persecute Falun Dafa practitioners, that good will be rewarded, and evil will meet with karmic retribution. We also want people all over the world to know the urgency of stopping the persecution against "Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance." We want more people to understand Falun Dafa and cherish it. People who have kind hearts and righteous thoughts will be rewarded.
