CNN\u2019s report relied solely on the accounts of alleged witnesses.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Sidik\u2019s story begins by noting that&nbsp;a policewoman told her very early on that she had been assigned to investigate reports of rapes and torture taking place at the facility.&nbsp;Sidik said that the policewoman described to her how the male guards at the camp often bragged while drinking about how they \u201craped and tortured girls.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Sidik said that her first encounter with new detainees was approximately 100 men and women who were chained in shackles around their hands and feet. She said that even those that came in physically and mentally strong eventually were broken by the brutal system that the communist Chinese had installed in the camps, where an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rfa.org\/english\/news\/uyghur\/detainees-11232019223242.html\">estimated<\/a> nearly 2 million religious minorities are being detained.
