(Clearwisdom.net) Central News Agency reported on April 28, 2006, The
Straits Exchange Foundation expressed today that several cases have been
obtained recently accusing incidents of harvesting organs from living Falun Gong
practitioners and cremating their murdered bodies to destroy the evidence in the
Chinese Communist Party's (CCP's) Sujiatun Concentration Camp, and other
concentration camps, forced labor camps and prisons in China. On April 25, we
sent a letter to the Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits (ARATS)
[the Mainland China counterpart to the Straits Exchange Foundation] to request
assistance in looking into related facilities of the CCP, to severely punish
those unlawful people [responsible for these crimes] and to safeguard basic
human rights.
The Straits Exchange Foundation expressed that freedom of religion is a
universal value. The CCP's suppression of Falun Gong can only add to people's
hatred of the CCP regime. In Taiwan, the constitution guarantees the freedom of
religion. Falun Gong is also very active, and the government has never
interfered with it. This is the biggest difference between democratic freedom
and totalitarian rule.
The Straits Exchange Foundation hoped that ARATS would investigate the
persecution cases, safeguard basic human rights and guarantee the freedom of
religion.
