GENEVA (AN) — A U.N. report finds China may have committed crimes against humanity in its arbitrary detention and persecution of Muslim Uyghurs in Xinjiang Province, prompting widespread calls for accountability and the Chinese government's scorn.
Human rights groups' demands for justice and more investigation competed with Beijing's denouncement of the report on Thursday by Geneva-based spokesperson Liu Yuyin, who said it "smears and slanders China, and interferes in China’s internal affairs."
