(新疆-2018年4月20日)新疆维吾尔自治区塔城地区额敏县一哈萨克族人披露,全县已有六千多名哈萨克族人被公安送入“政治教育中心”或看守所。哈萨克人称,目前,额敏县已经关闭,该县停止对外国人开放。进入该县的道路已被武警封锁。
新疆塔城地区额敏县一哈萨克族人阿依肯本周五(4月20日)对记者披露,当地超过六千名哈萨克族人,被当局羁押在所谓政治教育中心或监狱。全县哈萨克族人有七万多,平均每11至12个人中,就有一位哈萨克族人失去自由。不少家庭全家人被抓。他说:“全家人被捕入狱的也很多。警察违反法律,抓人不给亲属居留通知书。我们这里已有很多被抓的人,他们的亲属都没有居留通知书,被判刑的家属也没有拿到判决书。据我们所知,全县六千多人被抓,这个数字经过多方面核实,实际人数可能还多”。
阿依肯说,他的父母亲及亲戚友等七、八个人,去年9月被关入“政治学习中心”,至今没放出来。他还说,被抓的人中,年龄最小的有十多岁,年迈的八十岁左右:“年龄最大的有七、八十岁,而且亲属不能够去询问,或者跟警察讲法律,如果去理论,一律被抓,随随便便就给你扣一个罪名判刑”。
官方资料显示,额敏县有约18万人,由22个民族组成,主要民族有汉族、维吾尔族、蒙古族、哈萨克族、回族等。
目前,额敏县已被中国军警包围,外国人或哈萨克斯坦的哈族人无法进入。哈萨克族人叶尔兰对记者说,一些家庭的父母被抓,仅留下孩子,当局叫人把孩子送到孤儿院:“父母抓走后,把孩子送到孤儿院。这在当地都是常态。公安为了掩盖罪行,额敏县已不对外开放,也就是外国人来额敏探亲一律不准进入,只能够去塔城市规定宾馆居住。额敏县把门关起来,残酷的折磨哈萨克人,封闭了所有信息,外界没有人知道他们做了什么”。
哈萨克族人塞力克,刚从额敏县抵达哈萨克斯坦。他说,新疆局势非常严峻。公安到处打探谁到过哈萨克斯坦:“凡是去过哈萨克斯坦的人,哪怕是去旅游过一次的,一律抓捕。正常的穆斯林彼此打招呼,都是禁忌。相互打招呼只能问候‘你好’,其他的话不敢说。当地公安明确规定,绝对不准用哈萨克传统的方式安葬死者,除了直系亲属其他人一律不能够哭葬,坟墓安装了摄像头,如果有人去按照传统方式诵经那都是被抓捕的”。
塞力克说,他曾目睹当地很多哈萨克族家庭被查抄,传统绣花和民族特色的家庭用品被政府没收。他说,镇政府还安排汉族人到哈萨克族家里“同吃同住同喝”,如果有哈族人反对政府官员的行为,就被判刑:“如果有人询问是不是有猪肉,也会被拘捕,并且会被判重刑。政府还强烈鼓励哈萨克族和汉族人结婚,如有亲属提出反对,就被判以重刑”。
哈萨克族人阿依肯表示,当地公安已明确告诉他们不得从事宗教活动,手机内部的存储穆斯林经文或图片,一经发现,立即以恐怖分子论处,判刑。他认为,目前新疆犹如人间炼狱,到处充满着血腥。被抓的除了哈萨克族人,还有维吾尔族人,许许多多的家属不知道他们的亲人被关在何处,生死不明。他说:“被拘捕的人他们到底被用了什么样的酷刑,还有刑讯逼供等手段,目前都是一个谜。实际情况比目前我所陈述的状态更加严重,更加可怕,更加糟糕。希望哈萨克斯坦政府,联合国人权理事会介入调查,并且赶紧解救无辜的人”。

The government shut off the Emin County; Kazakhs describes it as living hell
(Xinjiang-2018-4-20)According to a Kazakh from Emin County, Tacheng Prefecture, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the police sent 6,000 Kazakh residents of the county to “political training centers” or detention centers. According to local Kazakhs, the government had blocked off the county, assigning armed police to guard the entrances. The district is no longer open to foreigners.
Ayken, a Kazakh from Emin County, Tacheng Prefecture, Xinjiang told the reporter on Friday (April 20th) that the government had detained more than 6,000 local Kazakhs at the so-called political training centers and prisons. There are 70,000 Kazakhs in the entire county. According to statistics, every one in every eleven or twelve Kazakhs is in prison. The local Kazakh told the reporter that sometimes the police arrest entire families. He said: “It’s common that an entire family is detained. The police break laws themselves, arresting people without showing the family members notifications. The government brought people away without legal documents. The family members of those who were sentenced never receive the verdict either. The police arrested more than 6,000 people away in the county. The statistics is reliable; the actual number of people arrested is only larger.”
According to Ayken, his parents and seven or eight relatives were sent to the “political training centers” in last September, and none of them has been released. Ayken said that the ages of the detainees range from a little older than ten to eight-year old. “The oldest prisoners are more than seventy or eighty years old. The youngest ones are teenagers. The family members are not allowed to visit. If they dare to argue with the police, they’ll be arrested as well. The government comes up with the most arbitrary excuses to arrest people. ”
According to official data, there are 180,000 residents and 22 ethnicities in Emin County. The majorities of the residents are Han, Uygur, Mongolian, Kazakh and Hui.
Currently, military police had surrounded Emin County, preventing foreigners or Kazakhs from Kazakhstan from entering. A Kazakh named Erlan told the reporter that the children were frequently left alone after the parents were taken. The government sent the children to orphanages. “It’s normal for the government to send children to orphanage after arresting their parents. In order to conceal the truth, the police have blocked off Emin County. No foreigners are allowed to enter the county, even those who travel to visit their family. The foreigners are assigned to live in special hospitals in Tacheng. The government tortures the Kazakhs and blocked all information, so people from the outside won’t know what’s going on.”
A Kazakh named Selik just arrived in Kazakhstan from Emin County. According to him, the air is tense in Xinjiang. The police began to investigate the people who travelled to Kazakhstan. “The government arrested every single person who had been to Kazakhstan, including those who only travelled their once. It’s forbidden for two Muslims to greet each other. The residents don’t dare to say anything other than ‘hello’. The local police clearly stated that it is strictly prohibited to conduct traditional Kazakh burials. None except the immediately family members are allowed to mourn for the dead. The government installed cameras in the cemeteries, arresting all people who recite traditional prayers.”
According to Selik, he had witnessed government raids of local Kazakh households, during which all objects with traditional embroidery or ethnic traits were confiscated. Selik also told the reporter that the county government had assigned people of Han ethnicity to live with the local Kazakhs. Any Kazakh who question the government police will be detained. “If a person asks if the meat is pork, he’ll be arrested and harshly sentenced. The government also encourages interethnic marriages between Han people and Kazakhs, arresting all family members who have a second opinion.”
According to Ayken, the local police had warned them that no religious activities were allowed. The government treats the locals who store Islamic prayers as terrorists. Ayken believes that Xinjiang becomes a living hell, teeming with innocent blood. Both Kazakhs and Uyghur people were arrested. The family members do not even know if they are still alive. He said: “It remains unknown what kind of tortures and interrogations the missing people have gone through. The reality is harsher than what I described. I hope the government of Kazakhstan and the United Nations Human Rights Council can intervene and rescue the innocent civilians.
