Dateline 15 March 2022: Tuesday on SBS
As Beijing welcomes the world for the Winter Olympics in February 2022, many countries including Australia, have joined a diplomatic boycott of the games, citing ongoing genocide and crimes against humanity in China’s Xinjiang province. China’s systematic repression of Muslim Uyghurs has been widely reported, but Dateline exposes a brutal new chapter – China’s equally systematic campaign to detain, jail, re-educate and use as forced labour members of the region’s second biggest Muslim minority – the ethnic Kazakhs. Many have family links across the border in Kazakhstan where Dateline meets the mothers husbands and fathers trying to find their missing loved ones or get them released from detention in China. Evan Williams reports on the growing number of detention facilities and hears testimony of the incarceration without trial, the torture and sexual assault of detainees, as well as forced sterilisations and abortions on Muslim women, in what has been labelled ‘ethnic cleansing’.
