Multiple Attempts by the CCP to Silence Me and Prevent Me from Speaking Out Against the Persecution of My Parents by the CCP
The German Federal Public Prosecutor has accused a German citizen of Chinese origin of spying on Chinese opposition members in Germany for China
On April 23, 2024, at the public hearing on the communist regime’s persecution of Falun Gong in China in the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Republic, I testified about the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners—like my father, Mr. Ding Yuande, and my mother Mrs. Ma Ruimei—by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

On the same day, it was reported in German media dispatches that—according to allegations made by the German Federal Prosecutor's Office—a German citizen of Chinese origin named Jian G. had repeatedly passed on information about negotiations and decisions made in the European Parliament to his Chinese handler in January, 2024. The information included the joint motion for a European Parliament resolution on the ongoing persecution of Falun Gong in China, notably the case of my father, Mr. Ding Yuande (2024/2504(RSP)).
After a scheduled debate on the joint motion on the evening of January 17, 2024, the European Parliament adopted the joint motion on January 18. This marked the first time the European Parliament had passed a resolution on the persecution of Falun Gong in China since the CCP’s brutal campaign of persecution began 25 years ago. It is also the first time in the history of the EU that the European Parliament has addressed the fate and safety of a Chinese farming family.
The landmark European resolution on the persecution of Falun Gong by the CCP and the persecution of my father, Mr. Ding Yuande (2024/2504(RSP)), focused entirely on censuring Communist China for its persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.
In the resolution, the European Parliament demands the immediate and unconditional release of my father, Mr. Ding Yuande, and all Falun Gong practitioners in China. Simply because of his faith in the Chinese spiritual practice Falun Gong—which is rooted in the Buddhist tradition and is based on the three principles “Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance”—my father was sentenced without any legal basis to three years in prison and given a fine of around €2,000 (15,000 RMB) on December 15, 2023.
Moreover, the European Parliament calls for the EU and its member states to publicly condemn organ transplant abuses in China, and to use the EU Global Human Rights Sanctions Regime and national human rights sanctions regimes against all perpetrators and entities that have contributed to the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China and abroad.
The Parliament stressed that EU measures should include the refusal of visas, the freezing of assets, expulsion from EU territories, criminal prosecution, including on the basis of extraterritorial jurisdiction, and the filing of international criminal charges.
In the press statement of April 23, 2024 from the Office of the German Federal Public Prosecutor (Generalbundesanwaltschaft, GBA), the federal prosecutor accused Jian G. of the following crimes:
Jian G. is an employee of the Chinese secret service. He has been working for a German Member of the European Parliament since 2019. In January 2024, the accused repeatedly passed on information about negotiations and decisions in the European Parliament to his Chinese secret service handler. He also spied on Chinese opposition members in Germany for the Chinese secret service.
This was not the first time that the German Federal Prosecutor's Office had made allegations regarding the espionage activities of Chinese spies against Chinese opposition members in Germany. In June 2010, the German newspaper Der Spiegel published an article with the title “War of Espionage” (in German: „Krieg der Spione“) about Chinese spying activities against Falun Gong practitioners in Germany.
Another report alleged that the suspect, Dr. Z., had confessed in a written statement to the court at the beginning of the trial in late May 2011 that he had sent e-mail messages and addresses of Falun Gong practitioners in Germany to a top official in the 610 Bureau in China, as well as hundreds of pages of written reports about Falun Gong. The 610 Bureau is a security agency established by China’s communist regime for the purpose of coordinating and implementing the persecution of Falun Gong.
On June 8, 2011, Dr. Z. was sentenced by the Higher Regional Court of Celle, which reached the following verdict in accordance with § 99 and § 59 of the German Criminal Code:
The defendant is found guilty of secret service agent activity. He is therefore cautioned. The imposition of a fine of 180 daily rates of 150 euro each is reserved. The defendant is ordered to pay the costs of the proceedings. A probation order is also issued. The probation period is set at two years. As a condition of probation, the defendant must pay an amount of 15,000 euro to Amnesty International.
For almost a quarter of a century, Falun Gong practitioners abroad have faced both life-threatening transnational repression as well as intensive and systematic espionage activities at the hands of the CCP.
Since last year, the CCP has been trying to silence me to stop my rescue campaigns in different European countries aimed at saving my parents from the ongoing persecution of Falun Gong in China. After my meetings with several Deputies of the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Republic in June, 2023, the Deputies posted pictures on their social media accounts of our meeting, and demanded of the CCP the unconditional and immediate release of my father, Mr. Ding Yuande. Upon my return to Berlin the following evening, I saw one Chinese operative secretly monitoring me on the S-Bahn train.
On June 26, 2023, the 35th UN Day in Support of Victims of Torture, together with Falun Gong practitioners from Belgium, Germany, and France, we held a peaceful protest in Brussels to raise awareness about forced organ harvesting by the CCP and to help free my parents from the ongoing persecution of Falun Gong in China.
A group of young pro-CCP individuals approached us wearing face masks with the Chinese characters for “China” printed on them and waving communist Chinese flags. One woman claimed to be from the Chinese Delegation to the European Union, but later denied it when a Falun Gong practitioner asked her to repeat it on camera. She shouted vulgar language at the elderly ethnic-Chinese Falun Gong practitioners in our group. Finally, the group of pro-CCP activists were questioned by Brussels law enforcement after they disrupted the appeal, and they were escorted away from the public square.
On August 1, 2023, as we were attempting to drop the letters of protest that had been signed by the kind-hearted citizens of different European countries into the mailbox of the Chinese Embassy in Germany, one staff member of the Chinese Embassy tried to interfere with our peaceful activity. After we called the police in Berlin, we were allowed to successfully drop the protest letters into the mailbox of the Chinese Embassy.
