TOKYO -- The exiled leader of the World Uyghur Congress urged the United Nations Security Council to take action on China over its use of detention camps for Muslims in the western autonomous region of Xinjiang.
Dolkun Isa, president of the Germany-based organization that seeks self-determination for the Uyghur people, said that about 3 million people were being held for indefinite periods with no means of contacting family members.
