Extra Bio Info:

Ablimit Hoshur Hajim is detained for his ethnoreligious identity.

In or around May 2018, state security officials in Urumqi municipality, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR), detained Hajim, a philanthropist, and others reportedly in relation to a now-closed charitable fund founded by Hajim to support education abroad for Uyghurs. Hajim's detention came amid mass detentions of largely Muslim ethnic minorities in XUAR.
