Dhaka (Bangladesh), Nov 12 (ANI): A series of events held across Bangladesh to mark East Turkistan Independence Day where activists highlighted Chinese atrocities on minorities, predominantly Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang province. Since the Chinese forceful occupation of East Turkistan (now Xinjiang province) in 1949, human rights situation there has worsened dramatically, culminating in genocide, continuing till today. Human Rights groups, NGOs, and other organizations organized various programs all across Bangladesh, accusing China of persecution of Uyghurs. To mark the Day, Ulemas and Imams held a meeting at the seminar hall of National Press Club whereas a street play, using the unique Uyghur face masks and flags, was held at Shahbag in Dhaka University. They also organized a human chain holding banners, posters, in front of the National Museum, where people congregated to watch/participate in the human chain.
