The Chinese authorities claimed a group of “violent terrorists” were responsible for the kidnapping of two people and immediately linked the kidnapping – in typical fashion – to “a surge in religious extremism.” In a 29 December 2011 press release , the WUC called on the international community to view the official account with caution. One day later, on 30 December, Radio Free Asia (RFA) reported that at least two of seven ethnic Uyghurs killed in a confrontation with police were women, and that children aged seven to 17 years old were among those detained following the violence. The two women killed were 29-year-old Burabiye Anduqadir and Buzohre Seydehmet, 27 years old. At the time of reporting, their bodies were being held by the county Public Security Bureau. Two others of the dead reportedly are Ablikim Abduqadir, 40, and Hebibulla Abduqadir, 26. According to the same RFA report, the group of seven had been attempting to flee to a foreign country due to religious repression in China when they were confronted by police. The Chinese government routinely conflates Uighur cultural and religious practice with “terrorism” through the concept of the “three forces”, i.e. “terrorism, separatism and religious extremism”. On 2 January 2012, a new RFA report five ethnic Uyghur children were missing since the incident. At least one of the children, Memet Ablikim, 9 years old, is a student at the only elementary school in Mukula village in the southern city of Hotan, where the violence occurred. Some sources indicated that he was injured by a bullet, which hit him accidentally in the incident. When the director of the school went to meet his parents or relatives, this was not possible, because all of them have been detained over investigations into the incident. On 6 January 2012, Amnesty International (AI) called on China in a press release that the government must reveal the whereabouts of five Uyghur children detained and some of the injured after the deadly clash in Hotan prefecture. “The Chinese authorities need to shed light on the whereabouts and health of these missing children and immediately provide medical care to those who need it,” said AI in its statement. "China, as a signatory to the Convention on the Rights of the Child, is bound by standards regarding the detention of children to ensure that they are only held in detention as a last resort and for the shortest possible length of time.” AI also stated, “the official explanation that people were killed because they ‘resisted arrest’ doesn’t answer how seven people ended up being shot dead, and a number of others injured. Even where suspects have used force against the police, the number of people killed and injured in this incident raises serious questions about whether unnecessary use of lethal force - in violation of UN guidelines - was used. This needs to be explained by the government.” On 8 January 2012, RFA reported that a six-year-old ethnic Uyghur boy has been missing for 11 days amid speculations he may have been shot when police personnel opened fire against the group of Uyghurs and killed seven of them on 28 December 2011. The Chinese authorities accused the six-years-old of taking part in the standoff and throwing stones at police. Local sources say that the police accidentally killed the six-year-old in the incident and produced a story about how he was throwing stones to cover or excuse their mistake. The same report reveals the names of another two Uyghurs who were killed in the incident: Abdumijit Seydehmet, 25, and Abliz Seydehmet, 30. All of the killed are from Mukuyla village, and according to one village committee head, at least three of them are siblings – Abdumijit, Buzohre, and Abliz Seydehmet. According to the latest reports, Chinese officials had not turned over the bodies of those killed and freed the children. The WUC calls on the Chinese authorities to conduct an independent investigation into the events. The WUC also calls upon the Chinese government to adhere to its obligation to respect human rights while countering alleged terrorism, as set forth in the UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy and international counter-terrorism framework.

Munich-based World Uyghur Congress spokesman Dilshat Raxit identified them as Adile Omer, a 25-year-old woman, and Faruh Dilshat, a 23-year-old man. “I don’t know what caused them to flee their homeland, but I know that they had participated in demonstrations held by the Swedish Uyghur community in front of the Chinese embassy in Stockholm. This is enough fodder for the Chinese authorities to punish them severely," Raxit said. He said Omer was deported on Monday while Dilshat was sent back last month. A fellow Uyghur asylum-seeker identified only as Malik confirmed that Omer was forcibly repatriated after being held in an immigration detention center in Stockholm since Dec. 23. Omer had highlighted her plight to Raxit from a plane before it took off from Stockholm Arlanda airport to Beijing. “She was crying and begging to me to do something immediately to prevent her deportation,” he told RFA. “Maybe, she had used a police phone as they took her to the plane forcibly.” (…) Malik said the deportation of Adile, who is from Xinjiang's capital Urumqi, occurred after a swift appeal hearing."It was very quick. They didn't wait for the court appeal process, and before it was approved, they had already sent her home." Malik claimed Dilshat did not resist the repatriation. At immediate risk Malik said a number of Uyghurs who had escaped China and arrived together in Sweden in September were now at immediate risk of deportation, in spite of having begun appeals in Swedish courts. He said the asylum-seekers had left China because of fears they would be persecuted in the wake of the July 2009 ethnic violence in Urumqi, which prompted hundreds of arrests and "disappearances," according to overseas rights groups. One woman had gone into hiding, moving house every few days for fear of being sent back to China, he said. (…) He said the Swedish immigration authorities had consistently treated them as if they were Han Chinese citizens, and appeared not to understand that they could face retaliation and further persecution if they returned. (…) The full article is available here . UNPO General Secretary States New Year Needs Resolve on Uyghur Rights UNPO , 13 January 2012 As Chinese New Year approaches, the international community must stand ready to renew its pressure on Beijing, both to uphold the rights of its citizens but also to end the policies that are discriminating and marginalisaing Uyghurs throughout East Turkestan and China. The reported deaths of seven Uyghurs in Guma County of Hoten prefecture on 28 December 2011 came amid a renewed ‘Strike Hard’ campaign by Chinese authorities that has seen Uyghur activists detained, assaulted, and disappeared with no recourse to justice or compensation. Those that have presented appeals to the Chinese authorities risk being consigned to ‘reeducation’ camps. In August 2011 seven Uyghurs disappeared, their families learning months later that they had been sentenced to ‘reeducation’ for the staging of a public protest against economic policies that have been impoverishing farmers for years. As a result many Uyghurs have fled their country to find refuge elsewhere but the decision of authorities such as those in Sweden to repatriate Uyghurs to China sends a worrying signal.

  • Beyond the Camps - Adrian Zenz - CECC Hearing Testimony, October 17, 2019
    Beyond the Camps - Adrian Zenz - CECC Hearing Testimony, October 17, 2019 Beyond the Camps: Beijing's Grand Scheme of Coercive Labor, Poverty Alleviation and Social Control in Xinjiang Adrian Zenz Senior Fellow in China Studies Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation, Washington, D.C. Written Testimony for the Hearing of the Congressional Executive Commission on China 1. Introduction After recruiting a hundred or more thousand police forces, installing massive surveillance systems, and interning vast numbers of predominantly Turkic minority population members, many have been wondering about Beijing's next step in its so- called "war on Terror" in Xinjiang. Since the second half of 2018, limited but apparently growing numbers of detainees have been released into different forms of forced labor. In this report it is argued based on government documents that the state's long-term stability maintenance strategy in Xinjiang is predicated upon a perverse and extremely intrusive combination of forced or at least involuntary training and labor, intergenerational separation and social control over family units. Much of this is being implemented under the heading and guise of "poverty alleviation". Below, the author identifies three distinct flow schemes by which the state seeks to place the vast majority of adult Uyghurs and other minority populations, both men and women, into different forms of coercive or at least involuntary, labor-intensive factory work. This is achieved through a combination of internment camp workshops, large industrial parks, and village-based satellite factories. While the parents are being herded into full-time work, their children are put into full-time (at least full day-time) education and training settings.

By applying a newly established RCC method, namely, the relative resources carrying capacity (RRCC) method, we evaluated the RCC in the Tarim River basin (TRB) in arid China in Xinjiang during 2000-2011. Research results show that the relative resources carrying capacity can be effectively served as indicators of regional resources sustainable development status. Taking Xinjiang as the reference region, the TRB can be characterized as an area with an overloaded population and surplus economy during the whole research period, where land resources are relative advantage resources carrying the regional population growth and economic development and water resources are relative disadvantage resources restricting rapid regional development. Taking TRB as the reference region, 42 counties and cities in TRB performed significant temporal and spatial disparities according to the RRCC based on population and economic perspectives.
