Eat pork, speak Chinese, no beards: Muslim former detainee tells of China camp trauma
For Muslims in China’s re-education camps, indoctrination starts with early morning patriotic songs and sessions of self-criticism, and often ends with a meal of only pork, according to one exiled former detainee. For Omir Bekali, an ethnic Kazakh who says he spent several weeks in a camp before fleeing to Turkey a year ago, it was more about trauma than education.
