Rejected petition Bring an end to Muslim detention Camps!

Up to a million Muslims are being held in detention camps in the Chinese province of Xinjiang. The UK government must intervene and aid to help these Muslims due to their maltreatment in these so called “education camps.” They are being forced to renounce their faith- being Muslim isn’t a crime!

More details

The mass detention of Muslims in detention camps in the Chinese province of Xinjiang has attracted increasing international condemnation. The United Nations has asked for access to the camps that Chinese officials continue to insist are “vocational training centres”. The Guardian’s Beijing bureau chief, Lily Kuo, has travelled to Luopu County in Xinjiang where residents are reluctant to talk about the imposing concrete compounds where people from Muslim minorities, mainly Uighurs, are sent against their will and without trial for months or even years.
