Abdueziz Abdurahman is detained for his religious activity and ethnoreligious identity.

In 2017, authorities detained Abdurahman in Tomosteng town, Yarkand (Shache) county, Kashgar prefecture, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR), alongside dozens of others Uyghurs, reportedly in relation to their giving or listening to unauthorized religious sermons. Abdurahman's detention came amid mass detentions of largely Muslim ethnic minorities in XUAR.
