【光明網9月17日】女士們,先生們:
作為一個保護法輪學員人權,調查對法輪功進行迫害的世界性組織,今天,我們對紐省高級法院受理章翠英女士訴訟案一事感到興奮,這不僅僅是章女士和她的律師們的勝利,也是澳洲的一個重要里程碑,在這裡澳洲公民對犯有酷刑罪和反人類罪的犯罪分子尋求審判的權利得到了保證。
在章女士的控告書裡提到她4年前身體上遭受到的苦難。但在今天,還有成千上萬的像章女士這樣的法輪功學員在中國監獄,看守所和勞教所裡。中國的司法體制不保護這些遭受折磨和虐殺的人們。今年7月,記錄在案的有19宗迫害致死案例;而在8月有23宗。這種記錄令人擔懮,因為鎮壓還在進行。
據悉,最近中國當局正試圖阻止其犯罪暴行在國際社會中遭到審查。但是,這是我們的責任,是每個人的責任,反對這場迫害,制止江澤民及其同夥的暴行。
這次的訴訟案也是對那些還在迫害法輪功的人一個警告。澳洲這個國家,不會是他們的避風港,現在不會,將來也不會。澳洲法院開始說話了,法輪功學員和世界上的人們聽到了正義的聲音。我們不會停止直到正義的來臨。
謝謝!
Statement from WOIPFG Australia with regard to Ms Zhang’s complaint against Jiang Zemin and 610 office
Ladies and Gentlemen:
As an organization dedicated to protecting the human rights of Falun Gong practitioners, the world organization to investigate the persecution of falun gong is very much encouraged today by the acceptance of Ms zhang’s complint by the “Australian higher court”. This is not only a victory for Ms zhang and her legal counsels, but also a significant milestone for Australia where her citizen’s rights to seek for justice from perpetrators of crimes of torture and crime against humanity are reassured.
The physical pain and suffering cites in ms zhang’s complaint occurred 4 years ago. However, today, tens of thousands of falun gong practitioners like ms zhang are still in Chinese prisons, detention centers and labor camps. Chinese judicial system offers no protection for these people from being tortured and murdered. In july this year, 19 death cases were reported. In august, 23 death cases were reported, it is a somber reminder that the presecution is still going on. 。
Recently, there is evidence that Chinese authority is trying even harder to keep these atrocities away from the scrutiny of international community. Therefore, it is our responsibility, actually, is it everyone’s responsibility to speak out against this persecution, to call on jiang zemin and his followers to stop this atrocity.
This lawsuit also serve as a notice to those who are still involved in the persecution of falun gong practitioners that Australia, as a nation, will not be a safe heaven for them. Not now and certainly, not in the future. The Australian court has spoken and falun gong practitioners and people around the world have heard the voice of justice. We will not rest until justice is served.
Thank you.
