Falun Gong fake stories about China and organ transplants

Quote

Beijing: The Falungong fabricated stories about organs of its members removed after execution purely for political objectives, said Campbell Fraser, an expert on human organ trade from Griffith University, Austra­lia.

“It really makes people angry. Organ transplant is for giving life, and it is a beautiful thing, not for political objectives,” Fraser said on Saturday at the China Organ Donation and Transplantation Conference in Kunming, Yunnan province

Health officials and experts from China and abroad attended the meeting.

“They have actually falsified data, I have no doubt about that at all,” Fraser said.

“I haven’t found any evidence whatsoever that there has ever been a Falungong practitioner who had been executed and had organs removed.

“We cannot let cults stand in our way. Intimidation and harassment can never win.”

Fraser said he has met Falungong practitioners in places such as Australia, Taipei and New York, and when he would try to talk to a practitioner, the Epoch Times, the cults newspaper, always insist that one of its people be present.

The newspapers representatives gave practitioners a printed letter to read out saying things like they had been detained and tested for forced organ donation in China, he said, and they didn’t even understand what they were reading.

“The cult is using these people for anti-China political objectives. Falungong practitioners don’t understand about organ harvesting, and they are being told what to say by a group of primarily US-based political activists who try to destabilise the Chinese government,” Fraser said.

China banned the Falungong as a cult in 1999, accusing it of disguising itself as a religious group to brainwash practitioners, taking money from them, and even encouraging them to engage in self-immolation.
