EXECUTIONS ARE STILL BEING CARRIED

OUT IN EAST TURKESTAN
Although China's policy regarding its own people is utterly ruth-
less, things are even worse in East Turkestan. The number of East

Turkestan Muslims executed is enormous. Any initiative by the Muslim
population to live according to their religion or speak their own lan-
guage, which are fundamental rights, is savagely punished.
Just as in China as a whole, executions still go on in East Turkestan,
and innocent people are martyred in the absence of any firm evidence.
Chinese courts are not independent like those in democratic countries,
but operate within the framework of the Communist Party's political

M uslims executed in East Turkestan.
