REPRESION OF SPIRITUAL AND RELIGIUS GROUPS IN CHINA - Amnesty International Al Report 2006

@ 07:00 AM (10 months, 8 days ago)
Religious observance outside official channels remained tightly circumscribed. In March, the authorities promulgated a new Regulation on Religious Affairs aimed at strengthening official controls on religious activities.
The crackdown on the Falun Gong spiritual movement was renewed in April. A Beijing official clarified that since the group had been banned as a “heretical organization”, any activities linked to Falun Gong were illegal. Many Falun Gong practitioners reportedly remained in detention where they were at high risk of torture or ill-treatment.
Unregistered Catholics and Protestants associated with unofficial house churches were also harassed, arbitrarily detained and imprisoned. In November, prominent defence lawyer Gao Zhisheng was forced to close down his law firm for a year after he refused to withdraw an Open Letter to the President and Premier calling on the authorities to respect religious freedom and to stop the “barbaric” persecution of Falun Gong. The order came shortly after he had filed an appeal on behalf of underground Protestant pastor Cai Zh.
Will they ever stop. The world must react. If we ignore their behavior violations will get worse every year.
