Others are persecuted Christians or Buddhists. or people who do not wish to live without freedom and democracy. Still others just want a better life. For over 3 years now. over 100 passengers from the refugee ship Golden Venture have been imprisoned by the U.S. Government. Their only crime was escaping from Communist Ch:na. In the last few months. severa4 dozen of the Golden Venture passengers have been deported to Chinasome by force. some voluntarily because they were worn down by years in detention. A few days ago I received an affidavit signed by Pin Lin. a Golden Venture passenger who through the intervention of the Holy See has been given refuge in Venezuela. He has received information from families of some of the men who have returned.
