WASHINGTON: China is guilty of ongoing"crimes against humanity" in its oppressive treatment of Uighurs and other Muslim minorities, Human Rights Watch said in a detailed report released on Monday .

"The Chinese government's apparent goal in creating the camps is the erasure of Turkic Muslim culture and religion," it said, specifying Uighurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and other groups in Xinjiang. It faulted the Chinese government for illegal imprisonment, torture and murder of Uighurs, and of intentional policies of forced labour and sexual violence toward them.HRW said Beijing's mistreatment of Uighurs dates back more than two decades, but said that they have intensified since 2013 under Chinese President Xi Jinping.

HRW and the Stanford researchers did not go so far as to accuse Beijing of genocide in Xinjiang, an accusation that has been made by the US government, legislatures in Belgium, Canada and Netherlands, and other rights groups.
