George floyd have arrived here in houston at the fountain of praise church the city here in houston where george floyd spent many years of his life and today basically marks day one of 2 commemoration days his remains his body are laid out inside the church right behind me we are expecting thousands of visitors off the members of the public in fact who are going to pay their final tribute to george floyd here today so this is a public viewing here today tomorrow will be the actual funeral its a very sad day of course not only for the black community here in houston but also for everyone who joined the black lives matter protests that weve seen in recent days and weeks in the u. S. And around the world. Tomorrows funeral what will happen that who will be that. Also tomorrow will then be the actual funeral we will hear a Memorial Service in inside the church that will be the part thats not open to the public but of course it will be it will be live on television and if you look around here you see many s.

Very popular figure among the black community who was Vice President of barack obama the 1st president black president of the United States and this is his 1st major trip outside of his home area since the penn demick began began lets remember also that the only thing all most of what weve seen of joe biden were video messages recorded in his hometown wilmington delaware so today its very important for him to come here personally to pay sympathies for the family but because of his fear that his presence at the funeral could be a disruption he decided to only play a video message on the actual funeral tomorrow and return to his home after meeting the family today and just on that point we have seen also violent unrest in the country the scene behind you looks very peaceful they do look very peaceful and as you know the actual procession here the public viewing hasnt started yet also the family wants this to remain peaceful and weve also seen in recent days that the protests turned from violent to peaceful so the big hope is youre of course that whatever happens here today will remain peaceful but of course all eyes are on Houston Texas and on whats going to happen here today and tomorrow thank you for that all of us how thats a houston.

That would be dr investigation into the situation in china region where researchers estimate that up to a 1000000 people have been detained in so called education camps remote province in china so far northwest is off limits to International Media was legally use to make up most of the regions population of long faced repression by chinese authorities including the recent years lengthy prison terms the w. s Investigations Team has found that many imprisoned weekers inside the camps have been forced to choose from a list of crimes and then sentenced in sham trials without access to due process the w. B. Forces spoke with people who escaped from chinas network of repression jinja. If you dont have any freedom at all your money says 247 they can interrogate you as any time even at night when youre asleep the women i was with ended up there because they had want to head scarf. Over troubled abroad there wasnt a single criminal among them. Thats the voice of a woman who spent almost a year inside a reeducation camp in china with keeping her identity a secret in order to protect her family in sin a remote region in northwest china. She in john hughes home to the weakest a predominantly muslim ethnic group. Decades of state sponsored discrimination against them has spread into discontent into times of violence including riots and terror attacks. In response china has cracked down and we and built up a close knit Surveillance System feel 47 prison more than a 1000000 people in internment camps. Cross ginger the Chinese Government claims the camps were set up to fight extremism and provide leaders with the patient or skills but detainees and documents contradict that narrative rather detainees are targeted based on little more than their culture and religion and are forced to undergo a draconian and often brutal brainwashing program. And now weve on earth even more chilling evidence of chinas for oppression of leaders we talked to former detainees who managed to escape chinas network of reeducation camps. One day they were handed a list of alleged crimes. It was one page of paper we had to choose one item i started reading it and it said wearing a headscarf playing owning a quran or phoning all contacting people abroad they threatened us you will stay here until you pick a crime so i signed the paper and put my thing the current. A few days after the woman was forced to sign the list official start of calling up people one by one for what amounts to a sham trial oh yes you were you but there were no lawyers. There were to read out the judgement and the cheney would have to say i confessed my crimes i promise i wont repeat my wrongdoings im not i want to just look all. Over so that. We analyze satellite imagery and publicly available material such as construction bids and tender notices and managed to locate 3 camps where these trials happened in 2018 in 3 different locations across 2. After the trials. Detainees started disappearing some were picked up at night others led away from their classrooms never to return. But it seems that only those who had confessed to religious acts in the childs were picked up this is yet another indication that china is targeting we get culture and religion. Woman in the other detainees we talked to managed to skate to neighboring kazakhstan and stairs with cousin president seal family members were eventually allowed to leave china. My husband says i changed sometimes i get very angry for no reason started screaming joining the nights im so exhausted all the times thats. All we can speak about this but they dont lose a sherry charm who is actually part of the Investigation Team welcome sherry. These people are forcibly detained anyway why do you think china feels it has to go through the motions of a trial inside these camps well actually this is a very interesting question we would also like to ask the chinese authorities and in fact we tried to reach out to them to the Foreign Ministry of china and also to the embassy. When f. L. Got a response about these trials but one speculation all one for a possible reason is that actually in the past few years International Media has been reporting about this we educate sometimes in china and it puts a lot of pressure on the chinese authorities. Asking about their treatment of their wages there and this could be one way for them to transfer all they stay 10 days from the detention camps to. Prisons. Kind of legitimize way i say we had in the revolt that some detainees disappear after the trial so is that what were presumed to be presumed that they leave these camps and go to prison its very hard to really call because theres no paper trail off and the off base trials or any of even the names of the detainees. But from what we have heard from the witnesses. From experts we assume that many of them have been taken to prisons also actually some of our witnesses told us that if they were some of them if they were given lighter sentences actually they were sent home not to prison but then they would be under very strict surveillance from the state they would be officers visiting their homes every day to. Basically. Monitoring the story for some time the Chinese Government claimed early this this year that everyone who had received these this socalled educational training inside these comes have graduated and that all leading happy lives what is your research. This is absolutely true from our research as we said in the report many of them have been going through these trials and sent to prison and actually they also report some of these former detainees they were transferred to factories. Or in other parts of china to work as forced labor and actually many fake many of these factories are producing for Foreign Companies including German Companies so what sort of International Pressure is being applied to china over the treatment of weak muslims so far International Community has been quite quiet the e. U. Has discussed the sanctions on china because of their treatment of their weakness and the u. S. Recently passed an act to sanction some officers who are responsible for the treatment of weakness but. Other than that. I mean many things that have done that have been done by specially germany actually its quite quiet. It could be because its a very important trading partner for germany and this is really and issue of economy versus human rights so i suppose its. Our job to just keep highlighting whats going on.
