Background:
On March 14, 2002, four Falun Gong practitioners from Switzerland and 12 from Hong Kong held a peaceful sit-in appeal and hunger strike in front of the Chinese Liaison Office in Hong Kong in order to express disapproval of Chinese President Jiang Zemin’s orders to shoot Falun Gong practitioners. Shortly after the petition started, at the request of the P.R.C’s Liaison Office, Hong Kong policemen arrived at the site of the appeal and demanded that the practitioners move their petition to a different location. Only a few hours into the appeal, the police proceeded to violently take the 16 practitioners into custody. In a trial in which the police chose to charge the practitioners for allegedly obstructing the sidewalk, the defense counsel has cited “over policing” and “unprofessional behavior” by the Hong Kong police.(http://www.dajiyuan.com)
