The wife of a diplomat stationed in the Chinese Embassy in Canada has defected, bringing with her documents and testimony said to expose illicit activities organized by the Chinese Embassy against Falun Gong practitioners, democracy activists and other critics of the Chinese regime.
Described by its publisher as a "daring and timely work written by a top level Chinese Communist Party official in President Jiang Zemin's inner circle," the book "Poisonous Deceit," released on June 6, provides an inside look at Jiang Zemin’s decision to launch the persecution campaign against Falun Gong as well as tells the story of how Jiang has carried out this persecution for the last three years.
Before leaving China on his most recent trip abroad, Jiang Zemin called for an escalation of the persecution of Falun Gong. In the days following, Bai Keming, Secretary of the Hainan Provincial Committee, called an urgent meeting with China’s Public Security Bureau officials at which he developed a scheme to connect the murderer to Falun Gong.
The Falun Dafa Information Center has received details of and verified the deaths of five more Falun Gong practitioners in China. All five deaths occurred in police custody and involved physical abuse, including torture. This brings the number of documented deaths to 283, with government sources inside China disclosing that the actual number exceeds 1,000.
