Serious arrests in Kashgar
Though
international organizations are trying to affect to
China not to humiliate human rights of Uighurs by
taking advantage of 11th September events, Chinese
government is ignoring this and instead of this under
the name “Hard Strike” campaign is increasing arrests
and imprisonments of Uighurs in Eastern Turkestan.
According to our reports on the 28th of March Chinese
government called a court in Kashkar region of Eastern
Turkistan and sentenced 14 Uighurs to the imprisonment
under the name of “national separatists” and “illegal
religious activists” and the other 52 Uighurs were
imprisoned under these names on this day.
In April of the last year Chinese government started
“Hard Strike” campaign with the purpose of destroying
national development of Uighurs, this campaign will
continue till the end of this year, at the very
beginning of this campaign, i.e. from 21st of April
till 29th of April of the last year Chinese
Authorities sentenced more than 500 Uighurs to the
different terms of imprisonments and to death. At the
first month of this campaign only in Kashgar 186
Uighurs had been arrested under the name of “national
separatists” and “illegal religious activists”, 153 of
them sentenced to the different terms of imprisonment
and to death without proves. This was published in
newspapers and now after one year Chinese government
is still continuing “Hard Strike” campaign and
sentencing a lot of Uighurs to the different terms of
imprisonment and to death.
According to other records, Chinese government is
planning to launch a new campaign under the name of
“ideological battle against national separatists” and
trying to oppress Uighurs to learn a new false history
of Eastern Turkestan issued by Chinese authorities and
increasing political pressure on Uighur writers and
poets.
While United Nations Organization is trying to organize
the meeting on human rights, Chinese government’
pressure on Uighurs and violation of their human
rights is showing that China is neglecting the
international laws and the world international
organizations should ask strongly Chinese authorities
to stop violations of human rights of Uighurs in
Eastern Turkestan.
