The United Nations’ Human Rights Council is examining Beijing’s alleged crackdown on Uighur Muslims.
The United Nations says it resembles « a massive internment camp, shrouded in secrecy. »
But China says the facility is a « vocational education and employment training centre. »
More than a million Uighur Muslims are believed to be held in the Western region of Xinjiang – a mainly Uighur populated area.
Beijing denies accusations of the mass detentions, saying Uighurs who have been involved in crime are being given a second chance through vocational work.
But the centres where they are thought to be held have come under increasing scrutiny by many rights groups.
