(Clearwisdom.net) After it was exposed that a Korean man's wife, Ms. Gao Chengnu, an ethnic Korean from China and a Falun Gong practitioner has been unlawfully imprisoned and tortured in China, a non-governmental rescue campaign was initiated and carried out in Korea. Falun Gong practitioners throughout Korea also take active actions to broadly explain the facts about Falun Gong to all circles in the society and call upon all people with a sense of justice to help rescue Ms. Gao.
On September 13, 2004, city officials in Cheonan City, where Ms. Gao's husband resides, unanimously passed a resolution to urge the Chinese authorities to unconditionally release Ms. Gao. Since then, practitioners throughout Korea have kept clarifying the facts to all circles in the society and collected petition signatures in support of the rescue of Ms. Gao.
In particular, practitioners in the Daejeon area have visited a number of colleges and universities, busy downtown areas, and other areas where there are crowds of people to display posters, distribute flyers, and tell people about the persecution encountered by Falun Gong practitioners in China. While collecting petition signatures, practitioners told people how Ms. Gao Chengnu, wife a Korean man was imprisoned and tortured in China simply because she persisted in her practice of Falun Gong. She is unable to come to Korea to reunite with her husband. In the evening, practitioners repeatedly play the video program made by CBN about the rescue of Ms. Gao on a big screen. People who learn about the facts are happy to help by signing the petition.
This rescue campaign will be continued until Ms. Gao is released.
