Family charge Kadeer with organizing riots
(Xinhua)
Updated: 2009-08-03 11:54 BEIJING: Family members of Rebiya Kadeer have asked her not to organize violence or undermine the peaceful life in Xinjiang, in letters made public on Monday.
Kadeer's son Khahar, daughter Roxingul and younger brother Memet wrote a letter to her, expressing their discontent for her betrayal of promises not taking part in separatist activities and voicing their moral indignity over the riot. "Because of you, so many innocent people lost their lives in Urumqi on July 5, and so many houses, shops and vehicles were burnt or damaged," they wrote. "The harmony and unity among ethnic groups were undermined." Xinjiang is a happy home to people of different ethnic groups and no one wants to destroy it, they wrote. "We want a stable and safe life," they said. "Please think about the happiness of us and your grandchildren. Don't destroy our happy life here. Don't follow the provocation from some people in other countries." In another letter to the victims of the July 5 riot, they held Kadeer and the World Uygur Congress (WUC) responsible for the riot. "Evidence proved the riot was organized by the WUC, led by Rebiya Kadeer, and implemented by a group of separatists within the Chinese borders." After an incident between Uygur and Han workers of a factory in Shaoguan of southern Guangdong Province broke out on June 26, Kadeer exaggerated the facts on the Internet, raising the death toll from two to more than 50, and posted counterfeit pictures, which triggered the riot, they wrote. "Those who committed crimes should take the responsibilities," they said.
