(Clearwisdom.net) On the morning of February 23, three Falun Gong practitioners and a human rights advocate went to the Chinese Embassy in Malaysia to protest the Chinese Communist regime's persecution of Falun Gong and deliver a letter to Ambassador Wang Chungui. During their protest, police arrived and arrested them under pressure of the Embassy. Reportedly, the Malaysian police are planning to charge them with "illegal assembly."

Among the detainees, the human rights advocate is a Chinese, the three practitioners include two Chinese with permanent residency and one Malaysian. On February 24, the police authority applied to extend their detention to 72 hours.
According to the practitioners' attorney, the four were brought to a special division of the police department for investigation. However, the investigation was not about illegal assembly and the authorities did not observe normal procedures. According to a reliable source, the Chinese Embassy has been continuously pressuring Malaysian police to take action against the practitioners.
The three practitioners and the human rights advocate are now conducting a hunger strike to protest the illegal arrest and injustice charge as well as the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in Malaysia by the Chinese Communist regime.
We call on the Malaysian government not to become accomplices with the evil regime to persecute Falun Gong.
