According to the latest news the World Uyghur Congress
obtained directly from East Turkistan, Uyghurs in
Urumchi are not only facing brutal massacre at the hands
of the Chinese armed forces and police but also from
Chinese civilians who have started to engage in a mass
slaughter of the Uyghurs.
Chinese civilians, using clubs, bars, knives and
machetes, are killing the Uyghurs throughout East
Turkistan. They are storming the university dormitories,
Uyghur residential homes, workplaces and organizations,
and massacring children, women and elderly.
According to the latest news the World Uyghur Congress
obtained about one hour ago, one Uighur young man was
mutilated on Dongbeilu. A Uighur woman who was carrying
a baby in her arms was mutilated along with her infant
baby on Huanghelu. Over 1,000 ethnic Han Chinese armed
with knives and machetes marched into Xinjiang Medical
University and engaged in a mass killing of the Uyghurs.
Two Uyghur female students were beheaded; their heads
were placed on a stake on the middle of the street. In
Railroad factory, Ergong subdivision, ethnic Han Chinese
began searching for Uighurs and upon finding them,
killed them in mass numbers. The World Uyghur Congress
headquarters has received many disturbing news reports
stating the above.
Chinese police and security forces are not taking any
action against this barbaric and gratuitous violence
against the Uyghurs. The Chinese government is not
taking any measures or precautions to safeguard Uyghur
civilians from this mob violence and these brutal
massacres. Uighurs living in residential areas
densely-populated by ethnic Han Chinese are in grave
danger. Chinese police and security forces are taking no
action against such deadly violence against the Uyghur
people.
At the moment, ethnic Han Chinese are phoning World
Uyghur Congress headquarters in Munich, Germany and
voicing threats against the WUC leadership.
We appeal to the United Nations, the United Sates of
America, European countries and NATO forces who defend
justice and world peace to intervene immediately, send
troops and make all efforts to ensure peace and
stability in East Turkistan and save the helpless
Uyghurs from this violent bloodshed.
The situation in East Turkistan is declining rapidly.
Scenes from streets, shops and residential areas are
beyond anyone's imagination. With each passing minute
another innocent Uyghur life is stolen!!!
