Public Notice

In and around the time of Hu's recent visit to France, China used economic incentives to lead a few people in the French government who were overcome by temptation to order the French police to arrest Falun Dafa practitioners for no reason. To those behind this incident--the people in China who ordered it, orchestrated it, and participated in it--you will be held responsible for all consequences. We will comprehensively investigate everyone involved both in China and abroad, and bring you all to justice in accordance with the law in the near future.

At an Arc de Triomphe metro exit, I got a leaflet handed out by an airhostess of Air France, but then I accidentally dropped it at the exit. Upon my return from retrieving the leaflet, I saw a few men standing next to my friends waiting for me, waving to me, gesturing me to go to them. As I got close, a few big men suddenly clamped both my arms very roughly. I asked them "why?" in English. They said they didn't understand English and they squashed my arms even harder, lifting me up, and stuffing me into a police van that was parked nearby.
