Uyghur Tribunal reaches unanimous “guilty” verdict

(ChinaAid, Midland, TX) The Uyghur Tribunal found the Chinese government guilty of crimes against humanity, systematic torture, and genocide against Uyghurs and other minorities in the Xinjiang region. Their decision is not legally binding, but it sets the stage for international communities to take action.

 

The Tribunal met twice in 2021, once in June and again in September, to gather evidence and witness testimonies for Uyghur concentration camps. An estimate of millions suffered forced labor, sterilization, torture, and sexual abuse at the hands of Chinese officials.

 

Being a quasi-judicial body, the tribunal cannot hold the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) accountable. Instead, the verdict provides an avenue for other free countries to take action. Some of these actions have already taken place with US House of Representatives passing the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act last week.

 

Bob Fu, founder and president of ChinaAid, commented on the monumental nature of this decision:

 

The unanimous judgment by the independent Tribunal after nearly two years of extensive hearings from a number of credible witnesses and experts that the Chinese Communist government had verifiably committed systematic genocide and crime against humanity against ethnic minorities such as Uyghurs and Kazakhs inside Xinjiang is another vindication of the same finding by the international community. It further proves the brutality of the worst human rights violations in the modern history of China in the past 70 years. It’s imperative both morally and legally for all of the free countries, especially the US and EU and international organizations such as the UN, to take immediate and urgent actions to stop these atrocities from happening before it gets worse.
