1. Falun Gong Practitioners Assaulted in Argentina after Lawsuit against Visiting Chinese Official 12.15.05
BUENOS AIRES (FDI)—In front of Argentine TV, a group of Chinese men beat Falun Gong practitioners who were holding a peaceful demonstration across the street from Argentina’s National Congress building in Buenos Aires. One of the Chinese thugs ran up to a practitioner who was giving an interview explaining why they were protesting and kicked her in the neck right in front of the TV camera. All but one of the Falun Gong practitioners attacked were native Argentines. The assailants were part of an entourage escourting Luo Gan, a senior Communist Party official. Luo, who is one of the chief perpetrators of the torture and killing of Falun Gong practitioners in China, had been served with a lawsuit in Argentina a day earlier. Local Argentines tried to protect the practitioners, yelling at the thugs: “This is Argentina not communist China!”

The practitioners committed no crime. In Argentina, citizens have the right to assemble, yet the practitioners were arrested and detained until the Chinese delegation left the area.
