Rally in London Calls For an End to The Persecution of Falun Gong

At an event in the UK Parliament on July 12, investigative journalist Ethan Gutmann said that the persecution of Falun Gong is one of the “clearest cases of genocide in this century”. He urged NGOs like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch to investigate allegations of organ harvesting, which he said had happened to at least 10,000 Falun Gong practitioners.

“Group after group has ignored this [organ harvesting] because it’s easier to do so,” Mr Gutmann said in an interview with Sound of Hope. “I don’t see a lot of change in that yet, but it’s possible.”

Gutmann is investigating evidence that organ harvesting has also occurred to members of the Uyghur and Tibetan ethnic groups.

He said he would like to see Western governments recommending that people not go to China for transplants until the providence of organs can be properly ascertained.
