Apple has cut ties with O-Film, a Chinese supplier of camera parts, following claims the company is linked to forced labour abuses of Uighurs in Xinjiang province.
It came after a report by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute which claimed O-Film used at least 700 Uighur workers from Xinjiang at a factory in the southern province of Jiangxi.
The Uighur were expected to “gradually alter their ideology” and express gratitude to China’s ruling Communist Party for their work assignments, the think tank said, citing Chinese-language news articles.
