He stated that in East Turkestan, which has a population of 35 million people living under Communist China persecution, people struggle for life under difficult conditions and some have been martyred and others have been imprisoned for years.

"We can no longer trust anyone, no one left," said Adil Abdulkadir.

Adil Abdulkadir, who was a tradesman from Hotem province in East Turkestan, told ILKHA that he came to Turkiye in 2017 for his wife to deliver her baby, and got news that the entire of his family in East Turkestan was exposed persecution and Chinese forces martyred some by tortures.  

"A policy of complete extermination against Muslim Uighurs"

Abdulkadir emphasized that there has been a very severe persecution in East Turkestan in recent years, and expressed the problems they experienced as follows:

"A persecution has started in East Turkestan and it has been going on for 2 years. The Chinese government does not allow having more than two children. We came to Turkiye for the fourth birth of my child with my wife. Because if they knew my wife is pregnant, they would have killed the kid by injection. For this reason, my wife and I left the children behind and came to Turkiye. After the implementation of the Silk Road project in 2017, a complete destruction policy was launched against the Muslim Uyghurs in East Turkestan."

Saying that his mother was sentenced to 12 years imprisonment and that his wife for 20 years, Abdulkadir added that his sister was martyred by tortures.

My entire family is either imprisoned or killed by the Chinese government," he said. My family has been broken apart. Experienced events depressed my wife. She now lives apart. We have no one to trust or a branch to hold."
