(Clearwisdom.net) According to Reuters and BBC, over 40 Western Falun Gong practitioners from around the world held a peaceful appeal on Tiananmen Square to call for an end to the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. Nearly one hundred police violently arrested them.

Among the Western practitioners arrested, at least three of them are U.S. citizens from Washington DC. To expose the Jiang regime's terrorism, dozens of Washington DC practitioners held a press conference in front of Chinese Embassy, strongly protesting the Jiang regime's atrocities, calling on all countries and people with righteous thoughts to pay attention to the matter and hoping that these innocent Western practitioners would come back soon.

Many media including CNN, Washington Times and RFA attended the press conference and interviewed several practitioners.
