Uighurs Accuse China of Mass Detention & Torture 😯
Channel: Atheist Republic
Date: 2020-09-16

A complaint has been lodged at the International Criminal Court (ICC) by two organizations of Uighurs. The organizations accuse the Chinese government and specific senior officials of crimes against humanity, torture and genocide. It is the first time members of the ethnic minority group have sought to use international law to hold Beijing accountable for their alleged mistreatment, including mass internment and repressive measures against their religion. The broader allegations filed with the ICC, are that the Chinese government enforced sterilization programs among the Uighur population, carried out mass surveillance and massacres inside Xinjiang, and coerced some individuals into becoming informants on Uighurs living overseas. The United States and China are among several countries that do not recognize the ICC’s jurisdiction, but the court still has 123 other member states that do acknowledge its status, and so investigations of and trials against those suspected of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity carry significant international weight.
