Claim: A Uyghur girl was abducted by the Chinese police and taken to a concentration camp in Xinjiang with a video clip showing a girl being grabbed by one of the marching military officers.
Fact-check: False: This video does not show Chinese police 'kidnapping' a Uyghur girl in Xinjiang | annie lab
Verdict: false. this video is neither taken in chengdu nor xinjiang. the girl's ethnicity cannot be confirmed, but the footage does not show kidnapping. it actually shows an officer trying to protect the girl from a bike coming at her. the video was taken in suining, sichuan, not in xinjiang, and was used for a pr purpose by the official sichuan armed police on douyin.
