Idris Hasan, a Uyghur Turkish with a Chinese citizenship who has been residing in Turkey since 2012, traveled to Morocco on a tourist visa from Istanbul on July 20, 2022. He was subsequently detained in Casablanca at the request of China and is currently held in a Moroccan Detention Center for deportation. The efforts of international civil society organizations and human rights advocates to secure Hasan's repatriation to Turkey have been ongoing for two years. Unfortunately, despite all efforts Hasan’s life remains at serious risk if immediate action is not taken. Hasan’s wife and three children are eagerly awaiting his return. For both family and humanitarian reasons, the release of Idris Hasan is not only a fundamental right for him but also for his family.

Laporan Hak Asasi Wanita di Turkistan Timur - 2023 (ETHRW)
Dipaksa berkongsi ruang tidur yang sama bersama pegawai pemerintah Han China, pencabulan hak asasi dalam aspek perubatan melalui kaedah kawalan kelahiran secara paksa, keganasan seksual di tangan kakitangan keselamatan China, paksaan untuk berkahwin dengan kumpulan etnik yang lain, dan paksaan pelajar sekolah menengah untuk bekerja di kilang di dalam keadaan tidak berperikemanusiaan; hanyalah sebahagian daripada diskriminasi berbentuk perkauman yang seksis dan tidak berperikemanusiaan yang dikenakan oleh pihak berkuasa China ke atas wanita Turkistan Timur.
Hak wanita yang merupakan bahagian penting dalam sistem pemerintahan yang adil telah dicabuli dengan teruk oleh negara China, yang akhirnya membawa kepada krisis kemanusiaan yang besar. Ketikamana Genosid Uyghur ditangani dan dibahaskan dalam konteks hak asasi manusia sejagat, diskriminasi dan penganiayaan berasaskan jantina yang dialami oleh wanita Uyghur, yang merupakan aspek tergelap dalam tragedi ini, belum diteliti secara menyeluruh.
Laporan Hak Asasi Wanita di Turkistan Timur oleh ETHR 2023 menjelaskan aspek genosid Uyghur dan pencabulan hak asasi manusia yang menjejaskan wanita dan mendedahkan pengalaman wanita Uyghur yang telah dijenayahkan oleh kerajaan China kerana identiti etnik dan agama mereka.

On Tuesday, January 23rd, the People's Republic of China underwent its fourth Universal Periodic Review (UPR) as part of the regular procedure conducted by the United Nations. Prior to this review, a UN report in 2022 investigated human rights violations in East Turkistan, revealing "serious human rights violations" by the Chinese state and providing policy recommendations.

May Allah SWT bless the soul of Muhammed Salih Damolla, the esteemed Uyghur scholar who was martyred by the Chinese regime in a concentration camp in 2018. We remember him with profound respect.

In East Turkistan, the Chinese state operates concentration camps under high surveillance and torture, enforces compulsory migration policies, practices enslavement, enforces forced birth control and abortion, deliberately causes hunger and thirst, engages in non-consensual medical interventions leading to death, torture, forced disappearance of civilians, forced intermarriage between ethnic groups, and forced placement of Han Chinese men to East Turkistan households. These practices demonstrate the Chinese state's intentional pursuit of ethnic cleansing and annihilation in East Turkistan. Therefore, it is urgent for international law, independent courts, and various organizations to take action within and beyond their jurisdictional scopes, and to demand a trial regarding the genocide that takes place in East Turkistan.

Human Rights Day is observed every year on 10th December — the day the United Nations General Assembly adopted, in 1948, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The UDHR is a milestone document that proclaims the inalienable rights which everyone is entitled to as a human being - regardless of race, colour, religion, s*x, language, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status. Available in more than 500 languages, it is the most translated document in the world.

Another statement was made on behalf of 51 countries at the UN General Assembly's Third Committee, in which it was pointed out that concrete evidence of China's crimes against humanity in East Turkistan was outlined in the UN report. Following this assessment, it was criticized that the Chinese government had not made any progress in addressing these violations. The UK Representative, James Kariuki, reminded that the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, had called on China to adhere to the recommendations in the report and urged China to take responsibility.

On the night of 26th June, more than 10,000 racist Chinese workers at a factory in Shaoguan raided the dormitory of Uyghurs with knives, axes, irons and mallets, and carried out a bloody attack against them.
We commemorate our fallen brothers from East Turkistan who lost their lives in the attack - mercy be upon them.
