Reports that two Uyghur men could be forcibly sent back to China are deeply troubling. Uyghurs who fled China's repression face abuse and torture if forcibly returned. International law prohibits it. I call on the Thai government to protect these men and uphold human rights.
馃毃 URGENT: Two Uyghur men detained in Thailand currently face imminent deportation to China, where they risk arbitrary detention, torture, and death.
In February 2025, Thailand forcibly returned 40 Uyghur men to China. Their fates remain unknown.
Thailand must NOT repeat this atrocity.
We urgently call on Thailand to halt any deportations, on other governments to press Thailand to do the same, and on third countries to offer resettlement to all five remaining detained Uyghurs.
