Biggest lawsuit in the history! $20 Trillion
A $20 trillion lawsuit has been filed against Chinese authorities in
the US over coronavirus outbreak. American lawyer Larry Klayman and his
advocacy group Freedom Watch along with Texas company Buzz Photos have
filed the lawsuit against the Chinese government, Chinese army, the
Wuhan Institute of Virology, Director of Wuhan Institute of Virology Shi Zhengli and Chinese army's Major General Chen Wei.
The
plaintiffs have sought $20 trillion, which is a bigger amount than
China's GDP, claiming coronavirus is the result of a biological weapon
prepared by the Chinese authorities.
They have accused China of
aiding and abetting death, provision of material support to terrorists,
conspiracy to cause injury and death of US citizens, negligence,
wrongful death, and assault and battery.
They
allege the virus had released from the Wuhan Virology Institute. The
plaintiffs stated that the COVID-19 virus was "designed" by China to
kill mass populations. Biological weapons were outlawed in 1925 and
hence such a biological weapon is a terrorist-related weapon of mass
destruction, the lawsuit mentioned.
The American group cites
multiple media reports that said that there was only one microbiology
lab in China that handled advanced viruses like the novel coronavirus --
in Wuhan. To cover up, the plaintiffs alleged, China linked statements
on coronavirus with national security protocols.
Klayman
and the plaintiffs also alleged that Chinese doctors and researchers
who spoke out about coronavirus and "raised the alarm to the outside
world internationally" have been "silenced". They added that such was
the desperation of Major General Chen to save herself from the virus
that she injected herself and six members of her team with a potential
vaccine that was yet to be tested.
They also alleged that all the defendants were working together to perpetuate "international terrorism".
The
lawsuit stated that while coronavirus is slow-acting and slow-spreading
to be used against a country's military, "it was designed to be used
against the general population of one or more of China's perceived enemy
nations, such as the United States."
The American plaintiffs also asked for a jury trial against the Chinese defendants.
