Xinjiang Report On Treatment Of Uighurs Released By Outgoing Un Rights Chief Michelle Bachelet

“Allegations of patterns of torture or ill-treatment, including forced medical treatment and adverse conditions of detention, are credible, as are allegations of isolated incidents of sexual and gender-based violence,” it says. China had opposed the release of the report. In its response to the document, Beijing’s UN mission in Geneva said the report is based on “misinformation and lies” and “distorts” China’s laws and policies. “All ethnic groups, including the Uyghurs, are equal members of the Chinese nation. Xinjiang has taken measures to combat terrorism and extremism in accordance with the law, effectively curbing frequent incidents of terrorist activities,” the statement said in part. her answer. The report comes four years after a UN panel of experts drew attention to “credible reports” that more than 1 million Uyghurs and other Muslim minority peoples were imprisoned in extrajudicial camps in Xinjiang in northwest China for “re-education” and indoctrination. China initially denied the existence of the camps and then said it had established “vocational education and training centers” as a way to deal with “extremism”. Beijing has called allegations of rights abuses, genocide and forced labor in the region “the lie of the century”. In May, during Bachelet’s official trip to China — the first by a top UN rights official in 17 years, for which she ultimately faced heavy criticism — she said the government assured her that the system of “professional centers education and training” was “disbanded”. The report was released at the end of Bachelet’s last day in office. This is a developing story. More to come CNN’s Richard Roth and Caitlin Hu in New York and Simone McCarthy in Hong Kong contributed to this report.
