(Clearwisdom.net) On April 6,2006, Falun Gong practitioners were invited to Gavle Hogskolan School to introduce Falun Gong and talk about the seven-year brutal persecution of the practice. Gavle is the capital city of a province in eastern Sweden. During the event, the practitioners highlighted the newly exposed atrocities of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in the Sujiatun Concentration Camp, where the regime harvests organs from living practitioners and cremates their bodies to destroy evidence.

The practitioners prepared truth-clarifying materials and delicate paper lotus flowers to give to the students and teachers. Beside the Falun Gong booth, two practitioners continuously demonstrated the five sets of exercises. The beautiful exercise melody and graceful movements attracted many students. When they learned about the persecution in China, especially the atrocities in the Sujiatun Concentration Camp, they were shocked and could not believe that such inhumane crimes could happen in this modern age.
"Are these true?" Many found the atrocities hard to believe and ask questions.
"Yes, it is happening now in China," practitioners replied. "Moreover, reportedly the Sujiatun Concentration Camp has detained more than 6,000 practitioners. The regime harvests organs including kidneys, livers and corneas from them and then cremates their bodies, some while they are still alive. There are at least 36 concentration camps of this kind."
Upon learning the truth, many students and teachers signed the practitioners' petition calling for action to stop the persecution, and expressed their support and goodwill.
A young man from Africa looked at the photo display attentively. He asked for all of the Falun Gong truth-clarifying materials and signed the petition. Sitting on a couch opposite the practitioners' booth, he watched the exercise demonstration and waved to the practitioners now and then with smile.
