Rusul’s niece has been studying in Turkey. She has lost contact with him after 25 May 2017, because it was dangerous for her relatives in Xinjiang to be in touch with her. Later she found out that, like his wife and other family members, Rusul had been taken to an internment camp in Kumul city of eastern Xinjiang. He was a well-known businessman in Kumul with a considerable net worth. His niece believes that the Chinese government targets successful Uyghur people like Rusul. Rusul’s ’s brother-in-law Mahmud Hamdullah, and other brother-in-law [Abdukirem Hamdullah] (#case-SR118) are also in detention.
