Falun Dafa Information Center reported on August 19^th: Falun Gong practitioners in Belgium are seeking legal channels to charge Jiang Zemin with genocide.

Practitioners in Belgium said, "Because of the persecution, our once peaceful life has been shattered. Under the state-run terrorism instituted by Jiang, Falun Gong practitioners are facing hostility and hatred from their family members, friends and innocent fellow citizens who have been deceived by the lies."

Practitioners also said, "Falun Gong practitioners with great tolerance can endure anything; however, we will never acknowledge the persecution forced upon us. The international public trial of Jiang Zemin is negating such persecution, and bringing an end to this enormous disaster to the Chinese people. Every Falun Gong practitioner is a victim."

Falun Gong practitioners also call upon all kindhearted people to join them in opposing this unjust persecution against Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance.

Practitioners were invited to give an interview on a radio station regarding the impending lawsuit. Practitioners explained the spread of Falun Gong since it was introduced to the public in China in 1992, and the brutal persecution practitioners have suffered since July 20^th, 1999.
