Sidik\u2019s story begins by noting that a policewoman told her very early on that she had been assigned to investigate reports of rapes and torture taking place at the facility. 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<\/p>\n<p>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 estimated nearly 2 million religious minorities are being detained. She said that she witnessed \u201chorrific traged[ies]\u201d while working at the camp where women were regularly \u201ccrying loudly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another witness, Tursunay Ziyawudun, told CNN that she committed no crime when she was sent to the camps. After a month in the camp, authorities released Ziyawudun, only to arrest her a short time later for a nine-month \u201cnightmare.\u201d Ziyawudun, who is now in the U.S., told CNN that large numbers women were often crammed into small spaces, allowed minimal time to basic facilities like toilets, and were brutally punished for small things like using the facilities for too long.<\/p>\n<p>During an interrogation session, Ziyawudun said that she was beaten so intensely that she passed out. Another time, guards forced her on to a table where they \u201cinserted a stun baton\u201d inside her and \u201ctwisted and shocked\u201d her until she \u201cblacked out\u201d from the pain. A couple of weeks later she was ganged raped by several men, an experience she said happened to her multiple times while in the camps.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were extremely sadistic, causing pain and damage to the body by beating and smacking my head on the wall,\u201d Ziyawudun said, \u201cIt was their way of punishing us.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, a Republican presidential candidate, confessed his ignorance of the Uyghur crisis during an interview with Hugh Hewitt.
