(Clearwisdom.net) On July 16, 2011, Falun Gong practitioners in Spain gathered in front of the Chinese Embassy in Spain to commemorate the fellow practitioners in China who were tortured to death by the Chinese Communists Party (CCP). They explained to the public about the fact that innocent Falun Gong practitioners are being persecuted and called for help to stop the CCP's atrocities.
The practitioners called for bringing the culprits to justice to stop the CCP's crimes against humanity. They held up big banners with the words "Falun Dafa is good", "Disintegrate the CCP and stop the persecution," "Bring the culprits who have launched the persecution to justice" and "Stop the persecution of Falun Gong". There were white wreathes and candles in commemoration of Falun Gong practitioners in China who were tortured to death by the CCP just because of their belief in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.

Mr. Carlos, the lawyer who helped to file the lawsuit against Jiang Zemin in Spain, attended the event and made a speech. In his speech, he said, ”To persecute Falun Gong, the CCP has committed crimes against humanity. I advise those CCP officials who are still involved in the persecution of Falun Gong not to participate in committing crimes just for the CCP’s blood-stained salary. Justice is about to prevail. I advise you to quit the CCP and stop the persecution.”
Several Chinese Falun Gong practitioners living in Spain made speeches at the rally, exposing the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong. They also called for help to stop the persecution, and called on Chinese people to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
The peaceful protest drew the attention of people who were passing by, and many stopped to sign the petition against the persecution. Many passing-by vehicles slowed down and drivers expressed their support by honking their horns or accepting flyers handed over by Falun Gong practitioners . Several parked their cars on the roadside and walked over to sign the petition against the persecution.
Spreading the facts about Falun Gong to people
A Spanish resident living near the Chinese Embassy said that he was very supportive of the Falun Gong practitioners' efforts against the persecution. He said, "Corrupt CCP officials not only spend money taken from people for enjoyment, but also persecute innocent Chinese people. This is really bad. These crimes should be made known to the whole world, and the persecution should be stopped."
