发帖数: 11162 | 1 Muslims were detained for re-education by China‘s government and made to
eat pork and drink alcohol, according to a former internment camp inmate.
Omir Bekali, one among perhaps a million people reportedly arrested and held
in mass re-education camps, said he was detained without trial or access to
a lawyer and forced to disavow his beliefs while praising the Communist
Party.
Mr Bekali, a Kazakh citizen, said he contemplated suicide after 20 days in
the facility – which itself followed seven months in a prison.
Since spring last year authorities in Xinjiang region have confined tens or
even hundreds of thousands of Muslims in the camps, including some foreign
nationals. One estimate put the figure at a million or more.
A US commission called it the “the largest mass incarceration of a minority
population in the world today” while a leading historian called it “
cultural cleansing”.
The Independent has contacted the Chinese foreign ministry for comment.
Asked to comment on the camps by the Associated Press, the ministry said it
“had not heard” of the situation. When asked why non-Chinese had been
detained, it said the Chinese government protected the rights of foreigners
in China and that they should also be law abiding. Chinese officials in
Xinjiang did not respond to requests for comment.
When Mr Bekali refused to follow orders each day in the camp, he was forced
to stand at a wall for five hours at a time. A week later, he was sent to
solitary confinement, where he was deprived of food for 24 hours, he claimed
. After 20 days in the heavily guarded camp, he wanted to kill himself.
