New Information about
Uyghurs in East Turkestan
Erkin Sidick
In my News Brief (6) posted
on July 5, 2019, I stated the
following:
“[4] Starting from 2016, the
local government of Toksun
County took 2 types of bloods from their Uyghur population.
The first type is
for the collection of DNA and other bio-information. This type
of blook was
taken in a small amount. But the second type was taken to use
as blood plasma.
Each Uyghur’s blood was taken up to 6 times per month in this
case. Plasma is
used to treat different kinds of serious health problems [4],
and Uyghurs’
blood plasma is being used to make commercial health products
in China.”
We have just learned that one
Chinese company that is
carrying out blood product manufacturing in East Turkestan is
called “Xinjiang
Deyuan Biological Engineering Co., Ltd” (https://www.yingjiesheng.com/job-004-167-759.html).
Here
is what that company says in its website about itself:
“Xinjiang Deyuan Biological
Engineering Co., Ltd. was
established in May 1994. It is the only blood product
manufacturer approved by
the state in Xinjiang with a registered capital of 46.66
million yuan. The
company is located at No.399 Dongrong
Street, North District Industrial Park, High-tech Zone,
Urumqi. It covers an
area of 136.6 acres and has a total investment of 500
million yuan.
The company is a
high-tech enterprise engaged in the production, sales and
research and
development of blood products. It is an industry with strong
specialization,
strict production technology, environment and process
management, and strict

The company's new
blood product production line is designed and constructed in
accordance with
the requirements of GMP (2010 edition). It processes 800-1000
tons of healthy
human plasma annually. It passed GMP certification inspection
in November 2016
and is capable of producing human albumin, immunoglobulin and
blood coagulation
factors. 3 major
categories of
products. The

plasma collection stations and 5 plasma processing centers in
Xinjiang, and
ranks among the top in the domestic industry. The mining area
covers 49
counties and cities, with a population of more than 10
million, accounting for
more than 40% of the total Xinjiang population.” (Translated

News Brief (7)
During the last a couple of days, about 90+
short videos were posted to various social media. Shown in each
video are a person and a background photo of one or several
people. We believe those videos were made by some Uyghurs inside
China, and in each video a person is appearing in front of a
photo of missing relatives. Several Uyghurs living abroad have
collected those videos, and posted them to the following site:

An article titled “Xinjiang’s Voiceless
Protests Hit Social Media” just appeared and you can read about
it here:

News Brief (6)
I received some new information from our homeland
through several “middle persons” during the last few days. Here
is what I learned:
(1)_Late last year, the government of “Xinjiang”
carried out a one-day top-secret operation on the Uyghur
children in so-called “orphanage centers”. In this operation,
local officials put the selected smart and good-looking Uyghur
children with ages ranging from about 3 to 17 into buses during
a night, brought them near cremation facilities that have been
built in close vicinities of all the major concentration camps,
and forced them to drink milk-like white-colored liquid. After
drinking the liquid, the children died right away at the spot.
Then their bodies were burned in the cremation facilities the
whole night. The reason of this operation is, the number of the
Uyghur orphan children grew tremendously, and the local
government did not have the finance to keep them alive. One
statistics shows that the number of Uyghur orphans grew at a
rate that is 18.6 times bigger than the national average in
China.
(2) We have learned a large number of Uyghur
children held in children camps in East Turkestan have been
transferred to Han provinces, and some of them have been
deliberately sent to companies or businesses that do children
sex trade or run children sex facilities. According to a USA
Today report on 30 Jan. 2018, “More than 1 million children,
according to the International Labour Organization, are
exploited each year in the commercial sex trade [1].” It is
believable that now tens of thousands Uyghur children are
becoming the victims of such commercial sex trade in China. It
was reported in New Tang Dynasty TV webite on 28 June 2019 that
a group running children sex business has recently been
discovered [2].
[3] One of the booming business in China is the
sale of human breast milk [3]. Guards in Uyghur concentration
camps now rape or gang rape young Uyghur female detainees at
will. Also, as I reported in my News Brief #5, many large
concentration camps already started sex business inside the
camps involving outside male customers and young Uyghur female
detainees. When Uyghur females got pregnant, some sent back
home, and others were allowed to give birth to their children.
After giving birth, their children are being taken away and we
don’t know what happens to those children. But their mothers are
forced to give breast milk. And the milk are being shipped to
Han provinces to sell as commercial product. According to Ref.
[3], the breast milk is sold for $22 per 250ml.
[4] Starting from 2016, the local government of
Toksun County took 2 types of bloods from their Uyghur
population. The first type is for the collection of DNA and
other bio-information. This type of blook was taken in a small
amount. But the second type was taken to use as blood plasma.
Each Uyghur’s blood was taken up to 6 times per month in this
case. Plasma is used to treat different kinds of serious health
problems [4], and Uyghurs’ blood plasma is being used to make
commercial health products in China.
[5] In Kashgar Beshkerem Township, the 70% of the
Uyghur population has been put in concentration camps or
prisons.
[6] The famous Uyghur female singer Reshide Dawut
was released from a concentration camp a few months ago, but she
has not been normal since she released—She became mentally
disordered. She speaks non-stop to herself on Urumchi’s streets.
Note: All of the above information was given to me
by some of my acquaintances, and they got the information from
their friends in East Turkestan or in other Han provinces. The
people who are providing such information are risking their
lives in doing so, because all the info related to the Uyghurs
in East Turkestan is top state secret in China, punishable with
a death sentence. I have not confirmed the above info
independently by myself, and I have no means to do so. China is
hiding their serious crimes against humanity in East Turkestan,
and that is why they keep the door of East Turkestan is
completely closed to the outside world.

Latest News from Our Homeland (5)
I received some new information from our homeland
through several “middle persons” during the last few days.
Here is what I learned:
(1)_In my newsletter dated 19 June 2019, I stated
the following: “Some
detainees
in various concentration camps were divided into 6 groups.
“The most serious criminals” were put in Group 6, and “the
least serious criminals” were in Group 1. Then they were given
jail sentences. The
prison terms of Group 6 ranged from 15 years to death. The other groups
were given less jail sentences than Group 6.” I have learned
the names of 3 such groups: “Chang guan” (长关,
long-term incarceration, Group 6), “yan guan” (严关, severe
incarceration, Group 5), and “fu guan” (附关,
light incarceration, Group 1), where the Chinese characters
are my guesses.
(2)
Recently,
an image of a computer screen shot was posted in social media.
It displays a table with Chinese characters and numbers. “New Chinese” (新唐人) put out a
report about this image, with content something like this: One
portion of the table listed a “Special colony group”. The total number of
this group is 4,475,666.
Among them, the number of Uyghurs is 4,459,687, and
that of Han Chinese is 339.
The image displays a date of 16 March 2017. It was speculated by
some responders that those Uyghurs were all locked up later in
concentration camps. It shows that the number of the Uyghurs
detained in concentration camps far exceeds the currently
reported number of “close to 3 millions”.
https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2019/06/26/a102609935.html
(3) With the increase of financial burden in
concentration camps, local governments have set up special
facilities in all large concentrations, started doing new
businesses such as organ harvesting business and prostitution
business, where the young Uyghur female detainees are
forcefully brought into some special rooms inside their camps
to have sex with government “customers”. When some females
became pregnant from such operation and gave birth to
children, the officials took away their babies and used the
mothers as “milk-giving mothers to adults”. That is, the
officials sold their milks to adult Han Chinese customers to
make money. These practices are still going on today.
It is a well-established theory that a government
changes a cultural genocide to a physical genocide when the
former becomes too costly, or the available financial
resources can no longer handle the need of the cultural
genocide. I believe this is happening now to the Uyghur people
in East Turkestan: I have learned that the foods in
concentration camps became much worse now than about a year
ago, and Uyghurs detainees are dying by large numbers due to
stomach cancers.
Dear world, how many more Uyghur lives need to be
lost before you wake up to the Chinese government!

Latest News from Our Homeland (4)
I received some new information from our homeland
through a “middle man” today: The Chinese government carried
out the detention of the Uyghurs in 3 phases starting from
2017. In Phase 1,
each township (社区,大
队)
was given a quota of 80 – 120 people.
In Phase 2 each township got 150
people. In Phase 3, each got 230
people. If one
multiplies 480 people/township
by the total number of townships in East Turkestan, the total
exceeds 6 million. Phase 3 of
the detention process is still going today—The local
governments are not only locking up new people, they called
back the small number of the Uyghurs released before, and
started to lock them again.
Also, the local governments opened up a “court
office” in each concentration camp, and those offices are now
giving out jail terms to the Uyghur detainees in large numbers
every day according to a “look-up table”. The people “at the
top” are getting from 15 years to life in prison, as well as
death sentence, and all of the people who got jail sentences
are being transferred to prisons.
The “most serious political and religious
criminals” are being moved away from concentration camps at
around 2:00am every morning, in an absolute silence. Other
detainees learned about this only from noises of moving cars,
and by noticing that some people got missing the next day. I
was told that those people must be the ones being transported
to other Han provinces, dispersed, executed in small groups of
about 50 people each, or used for living organ business.
The Uyghur detainees are getting sick by large
numbers, and the most of them are not allowed to see doctors
and get treatment. So the detainees are dying by large numbers
every day, mainly from stomach cancer, liver diseases and Tuberculosis 3.
Early this month, one branch of the
Urumchi City government issued an announcement to its
constituents stating that the population of Urumchi will be
increased from the current 2.5 million to 10 million in 2020.
Today (June 25), the UN allowed the Vice Governor
of “Xinjiang”, Aierken Tuniyazi, to address the UN Human
Rights Council, letting him to tell the world that the Chinese
government is treating all the Uyghurs in East Turkestan very
well. Shame on UN! Shame on UNHRC!
Also today, the US government released a
statement condemning the UNHRC and Vice Governor of
“Xinjiang”. Than you, the US government!

I have received some new information about the situation of the
Uyghurs in East Turkestan:
Some detainees in various concentration camps were divided into
6 groups. “The most serious criminals” were put in Group 6, and
“the least serious criminals” were in Group 1. Then they were
given jail sentences. The prison terms of Group 6 ranged
from 15 years to death. The other groups were given less
jail sentences than Group 6.
Guards started torturing Group 6 detainees with the most severe
ones, so that they could admit their “crimes” faster. After
going through a series of tortures, the detainees were forced to
sign a “Confess Letter”, stating that “I have been infected with
radical ideas, infected with terrorism ideas, and I had
separatism ideas.” After that they were asked to tell officials
“other criminals” among their relatives and friends who had
prayed, kept a copy of Quran, read Uyghur-language books, were
familiar with the Uyghur history, or had a plan to go abroad.
They were also forced to eat pork, reject the God, and reject
the Turkic identity of the Uyghurs. The ones who “behaved well”
got promoted to Group 5. Such tactics were used to the detainees
in all groups. The end result is that all the detainees became
enemy to one another.
The cells of the detainees in Group 6 are most secretive, and
the detainees in that group were not allowed to meet with
anybody. The Uyghurs who were transported to Han provinces,
dispersed and in some cases executed came from this Group
6.
The detainees who are now being picked for foreign observers
come from Group 1 who have gone through total physical and
mental destruction and have become to say “yes” for anything so
that they can keep themselves alive.
The kids whose both parents were killed or died in concentration
camps or prisons are also being killed now by the local
government.

China is Carrying out Mass-Execution on the Uyghur Detainees
Transported and Dispersed to Han Provinces
A 19 Sep. 2018 article by Foreign Policy stated the following:
“Cultural genocide means the elimination of a group’s identity;
destroying them without killing them”; “China has chosen
cultural genocide in Xinjiang—For now”; “So far China hasn’t
resorted to mass killings, even though cultural genocide is much
more complicated, costly, and difficult”; “If cultural genocide
proves too difficult, it is more likely that China will default
to an easier approach than abandon its goals—with fatal
consequences”; “Holocaust and Rwandan genocide are both notable
for the extremely clear and routinized organizational
hierarchies responsible for conducting mass murder”. [1]
A 17 Dec. 2018 report by Bitter Winter says [2]: “According to
sources in Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the provinces of
Shaanxi, Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Heilongjiang, and others have
been assigned quotas of detainees to take. At present, sources
have reported that Shaanxi Province in central China was issued
a quota of about 25,000 people. An estimated 500,000 Uyghur
Muslims will be dispersed and detained throughout China.” The
same publication revealed that the Uyghur concentration camp
detainees were transported secretly in freight trains from East
Turkestan (aka Xinjiang) to some Han provinces, and also
secretly dispersed to various prisons where some of them “are
left to perish on their own.” When I read this article, I
thought that “it is completely possible for those Uyghur
detainees to be mass-executed by the orders from the top.” I
have been extremely worried about them since then.
I learned several days ago that some portion of the Uyghurs
transported to Gansu Province have been dispersed in groups of
about 50 people, executed, and buried under the ground.
The detainees were transported and dispersed in 3 different
phases: With trains to Gansu train stations, with special buses
to some sparsely populated areas, and finally with prison buses
to execution fields. The guards were replaced with new
ones at the end of each phase. The Uyghur detainees did
not make any sounds—It was not clear what had been done their
voices or to them. The army soldiers who carried out such
execution and became mentally disordered have also been
executed. This process is currently still underway. Some proof
for this is available to the right party.
I suggest that any international fact-finding team that will
visit East Turkestan in the future count the current population
of the Uyghurs in East Turkestan, compare the number to 11.3
million Uyghur population reported by the Chinese government in
2015, and ask where the rest of the population went. I
call the international communities and the world to stop this
crime by the communist Chinese government.

Young Uyghur girls were raped at will by
guards in concentration camps, and were sent home if became
pregnant. This kinds of crimes against humanity is being
committed now in East Turkestan by the Chinese government!
“One day, more than 3,000 high school girls, all of them are
around the age of 18, were transferred to the Dawanching
concentration camp, right after the camp’s expansion. One
of the girls who was standing in the first row, quietly said to
me: “Brother, you can do anything to my body, as long as you can
rescue me from here”. I couldn’t look into her eyes at that
time, and her words echo almost every day in my ears ever
since.”
“Most of the time, the officer would rape the selected girl
alone. Sometimes, if he is high, he would let subordinates gang
rape the girls after him. After they are done, the girl would be
returned back to the cell. The girl wouldn’t say anything, but I
could see her tears from the camera. In the cells, they are not
allowed to cry, not allowed to express their emotions, and not
allowed to talk. Because of those restrictions, they can’t
vent their emotions, so their mood can be extremely dreadful.”
The above are the two excerpts from a letter from a prison guard
in the newly built concentration camp in Dawanching, near
Urumchi. The original letter (in Chinese) was posted online by
Erkin Azat on May 12, 2019. The letter has been translated into
English by Torchlight Uyghur Group, and posted at
http://blog.freedomsherald.org/?p=2186. Please read the full
letter, and help us save the Uyghurs in East Turkestan. Thank
you!
