Human rights activists and family of Huseyin Celil are calling on Ottawa to put more pressure on China to reveal where the 38-year-old Canadian citizen is being imprisoned.
Celil, a Muslim and member of China’s Uighur minority group, was sentenced to life in prison by a Chinese court last April. A year earlier, he had been arrested in Uzbekistan and extradited to his native China to face terrorism charges.
Celil’s whereabouts in the Chinese prison system are unknown to his family and Canadian officials. His southern Ontario-based wife and children have sent a letter to Prime Minister Stephen Harper urging him to intensify pressure on Beijing to provide more information.
“Prime Minister, we call on you to renew and fortify Canada’s efforts to ensure Mr. Celil’s human rights are protected,” the letter says.
In the message to Harper, the imprisoned man’s family expresses concern that “Canda’s attention to Celil’s fate appears to have waned.”
