A senior official of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region on Friday rebutted some so-called databases related to the region, saying that their evidence is trying to distort facts, smear Xinjiang and deceive the world with data that has proved to be false.
At a news conference on Xinjiang-related issues in Beijing, regional government spokesman Xu Guixiang said that the local authorities had fact-checked the 12,050 individuals named in the three databases and found out that 1,342 were simply made up.

The so-called Xinjiang-related âdatabasesâ fabricated by some anti-China forces have spread rumors and seriously misled international public opinion, a spokesperson with the government of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region said on Friday.
Spokesperson Xu Guixiang told a press briefing in Beijing that anti-China forces in the United States and other Western countries have concocted three âdatabasesâ to smear China, which are full of disinformation, rumors and false evidence.
Xu said that in the three so-called âdatabases,â 12,050 people were involved. After careful research and verification, the local authorities have verified 10,708 of them, finding out that 6,962 of them are living a normal life, 3,244 were sentenced for committing violence, terrorism or other crimes, 238 died of illness and 264 are living overseas.

ANALYSIS: When Hong Kong pro-democracy activists last month received messages from Australia’s Finance Minister, Simon Birmingham, on encrypted messaging service Telegram, they were overjoyed. But it was too good to be true. The activists quickly realised something was up when “Birmingham” requested they transfer money into a Hong Kong bank account. It was, in fact, a cyber hacker who had somehow managed to verify a Telegram account with Birmingham’s phone number, thereby stealing his contact book. This “phishing” scam also hit Health Minister Greg Hunt, Australia’s ambassador to the United States Arthur Sinodinos and a number of other senior diplomats.
