Zumrat Dawut explains how the government in Urumqi began to monitor and persecute Uyghurs. "In November, 2016, Chinese authorities began to build #police stations every 300 meters in the residential areas. They forced us to install a special application on our phone. Each time I said anything related to the Muslim #religion, the police would call me immediately after and ask me what I had said. People would be seized if the authorities found anything representing the Muslim faith in their homes. So people threw out their stuff. The sewers were lines with their copies of the Quran and other objects."Zumrat Dawut explains how the government in Urumqi began to monitor and persecute #Uyghurs.
