INVITATION – China Tribunal, Final Judgement, 17 June

0

On Monday 17 June, the China Tribunal will report its Final Judgement on China’s Hidden Transplant Scandal. The judgement, which will be delivered by Sir Geoffrey Nice QC and his colleagues of the Tribunal, will conclude the “world’s first ever independent comprehensive analysis of fact and law” following accusations of mass scale forced organ extraction from innocent people in China.

Over the past 12 months, this international, non-partisan body has been working to determine what criminal offences, if any, have been committed by relevant state or state-approved bodies, organisations or individuals in China who may have been involved in forced organ ‘harvesting’ from prisoners of conscience. The Tribunal has reviewed all available evidence and held hearings in December 2018 and April 2019 where over 50 fact witnesses, experts, investigators and analysts testified.

The controversy of whether China is killing people in order to sell their organs is about to end. If the findings result along the lines of what the allegations suggest, it may amount to China having committed a hidden mass murder and transplant crimes.

The proceedings for the delivery of judgment will commence at 10am, Monday 17th June at Grand Connaught Rooms in London.

WHERE: De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms, 61 – 65 Great Queen Street, London. WC2B 5DA. (Closest Tube Stations: Holborn, Covent Garden.)

FORCED ORGAN HARVESTING IN CHINA

Forced organ harvesting is a form of organ trafficking. It is alleged that in China, prisoners of conscience are killed for the purpose of removing one or more of their organs. The recipients of these harvested organs are Chinese citizens or international transplant tourists who travel to China and pay substantial sums to receive trafficked organs.

Within the Chinese transplant system, waiting times are said to be extremely short by international standards and at times, transplants of vital organs (hearts, full livers) can be ‘booked’ in advance. The alleged victims of forced organ harvesting are primarily people who follow the Buddha School meditation practice of Falun Gong, possibly along with Uyghur Muslims (a Turkic ethnic group currently being detained in vast numbers in the Xinjiang region) and some Tibetan Buddhists and House Church Christians.

These concerns have been raised with Chinese officials and Chinese medical practitioners on numerous occasions, each time with results that have been doubted by some. Those supporting China’s medical practices claim that issues to do with unethical organ procurement have been resolved but have offered no clear evidence to support their claims. At times, Chinese medical professionals have appeared to dismiss questions about forced organ harvesting without addressing the substance of the allegations.

The Tribunal is chaired by Sir Geoffrey Nice QC, who worked at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia – the ICTY – and led the prosecution of Slobodan Milosevic. Joining Sir Geoffrey are six panel members with expertise in international law, human rights, transplant medicine, international relations, Chinese history and business. The Tribunal was established by, but remains independent of, the International Coalition to End Transplant Abuse in China (ETAC), which is a registered charitable NGO.  www.chinatribunal.com
