Family Federation of Europe and the Middle East Urges Fair Treatment of its Founder and respect for Religious Freedom in South Korea
"We believe these charges are unfounded," said Dr. Michael Balcomb , President of the Family Federation of Europe and the Middle East . "Mother Han, known widely as the Mother of Peace, has dedicated her entire life to peace, interfaith harmony, and moral renewal. She deserves fairness, dignity, and full respect for her religious freedom."
Although government officials maintain that the prosecution is based on legal grounds, not ideology, human rights advocates are worried. "This is not just about one woman," writes religious freedom scholar Dr.
Massimo Introvigne in the Human Rights journal , "It is about the soul of a nation. It is about whether
South Korea will remain a democracy that respects religious freedom—or become a state where faith is punished, and dissent is criminalized."
The Family Federation urges people of goodwill everywhere to stand in solidarity and prayer for Dr. Han's swift release and for the protection of freedom of belief in South Korea .
