The whole world is aware of how China treats the Uighur people in Xinjiang. At the same time, a new report by Human Right Watch has once again exposed the ‘oppressive’ face of China. This report states that China’s dealings with Uygur ethnic minorities and other Ottoman Muslims in Xinjiang is a crime against humanity. Beijing is undertaking mass detention, torture, and cultural persecution, among other crimes in the region.
The title of this 53-page report is ‘Break Their Lineage’. In it, information about the atrocities committed by the Uygurs is given by China. The report says that China disappears the Uygur Muslims living here. They are closely monitored. Apart from this, crimes like keeping away from families, forced labor and sexual violence are also being carried out. This report, written with the help of Stanford Law School’s ‘Human Rights and Conflict Resolution Clinic’, says that suppression of Uygurs and Ottoman Muslims is not a new phenomenon, but now it has reached unprecedented levels.
Millions of people were closed in hundreds of detention centers
The report said that millions of people have been forcibly detained from Xinjiang. All these people have been kept in 300 to 400 detention centers in the province. These detention centers include political camps, pretrial detention centers and jails. At the same time, the children whose parents have been kept in custody, their children are being sent to many centers of the country. Since 2017, Beijing has stepped up operations in Xinjiang. It said that 21 percent of the total arrests in China took place in Xinjiang, while only 1.5 percent of the total population of the province is in China. In the last five years, there have been 306 percent more arrests.
China is executing crime systematically
Since 2017, the Chinese government has used various methods to damage or destroy two-thirds of the mosques in the area. Sophie Richardson, director of China in Human Rights Watch, said that the crime against humanity is a serious crime. This is being done deliberately against the people in a systematic way. It is involved in the biggest human rights abuses under international law. Explain that the governments of America, Canada, Belgium and Netherlands and other rights groups have already termed Beijing’s actions as genocide.
