February 27, 2004 |   The Australian: Falun Gong woman 'abducted'

BREAKING NEWS February 26, 2004

A SYDNEY woman today said her Falun Gong-practising sister had been abducted in China after trying to get a visa to visit Australia.

Lisa Liang said her 36-year-old sister Tang Yiwen was abducted on Monday in Guangzhou City, in the Chinese province of Guangdong, after refusing to give up Falun Gong.

The spiritual movement is outlawed in China.

"(My sister) applied for a passport from Guangzhou police on Monday," Ms Liang said today.

"She was told it was the policy of Guangdong Province that Falun Gong practitioners are not allowed to leave China."

Ms Liang, who also practises Falun Gong, said she was concerned for Ms Tang, who had been released in August last year after a three-year detention in a women's labour camp in Guangzhou City.

The Australian woman said her sister had been tortured during her time in the camp.
