CCP officials worry the United States will investigate the regime’s crimes of killing for organs in China, primarily using Falun Gong practitioners.
Top officials within the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) worry that if their crimes against their own people are fully exposed, the backlash at home and internationally could undermine or even topple the regime, according to a well-positioned source within the Party security apparatus.
The officials are particularly concerned that their crimes of torture as well as the killing of Falun Gong practitioners for their organs will be exposed on an international scale, the source told The Epoch Times.
The details of the crimes are so “inhuman,” he said, that if they break into the mainstream of public awareness, it would prompt widespread calls for accountability. Top CCP officials may face formal investigations, prosecution, and international tribunals, which would then destabilize the regime domestically, he said.
“This could lead not only to the collapse of the Party and the nation but also to the prosecution of all major CCP leaders,“ he said, including CCP leader Xi Jinping “in an international court.”
The source has access to information within the highest echelons of the CCP security apparatus. He has previously provided credible information.
Reports of torture in China’s prisons and labor camps surged in 1999 with the onset of the persecution of Falun Gong, a faith group the regime set out to “eradicate” after government surveys indicated some 70 million people picked up the spiritual practice, outgrowing CCP membership.
The regime imprisoned millions in its ensuing persecution campaign, and verified deaths quickly numbered into the thousands.
Around the same time, China’s transplant industry exploded. In a nation culturally reluctant to donate organs, there was suddenly an overabundant organ supply, with hospitals offering wait times as short as one week.
Starting in 2006, several whistleblowers came forward to testify that the regime was killing prisoners of conscience, mainly Falun Gong practitioners, to fuel the lucrative state-sanctioned organ trade.
While these crimes have drawn some media attention, they’ve never been formally investigated by a major government—at least not with publicly released results.
In recent years, though, it appears the dam has been breaking, with mentions of the crimes in Congressional resolutions and U.S. State Department reports.
