Mihrigul Tursun’s Testimony at Congress

“In the camps, I met a 23-year old woman named Patemhan. Her crime was attending a wedding in 2014 that was held according to Islamic traditions, where people did not dance, sing, or drink alcohol. She said 400 people who attended that wedding were all taken to the camps. When she was taken, she had left her two kids in the field. She agonized every day about where her children were. One night she suddenly dropped to the floor and stopped breathing. Several people with masks came and dragged her away.”
