(Clearwisdom.net) Radio France International (RFI) broadcast the following report in Mandarin to Mainland China and the Mandarin-speaking area of Paris on July 2, 2004:
Three members of the Falun Gong Spiritual movement have filed a lawsuit in Paris against Li Changchun during his visit. According to their attorney, Mr. Li was accused of being the accomplice to crimes of torture against members of the group. The following news came from Zhang Jianping, spokesperson for Falun Gong in France.
Representing three Falun Gong practitioners, Delva, a French attorney, has filed a lawsuit in Paris against Chinese Politburo Standing Committee member Li Changchun.
The plaintiffs said Mr Li was responsible for "supporting crimes of torture against members of the group as an accomplice."
"As a Politburo Standing Committee member, Mr. Li is in charge of information and media control in China. He has held many meetings, which aim at inciting hatred by deliberately demonizing Falun Gong, to call through the media for the elimination of Falun Gong practitioners."
"He supported brainwashing and torture of Falun Gong practitioners while serving as the Communist Party Secretary of Guangdong Province. So far, twenty-six Falun Gong deaths from torture in Guangdong prison have been verified. Of China's thirty provinces, the number of deaths of Falun Gong practitioners in Guangdong ranked 8th, " says Zhang Jianping.
"Some people may doubt the results of our efforts, because we are facing a monstrous national terrorist regime. However, we care more about the process than the final result. We also believe, as long as more and more people know what horrible things they have done and how disgraceful they are in this brutal persecution, they will be brought to justice sooner or later."
"Li Changchun, this evening, is holding a party for the end of the Chinese Culture Year in France, This lawsuit will be a blow to him," Zhang Jianping says, "We are not against friendship between France and China, but the real criminal should and will be brought to justice."
