Canada must use all the tools at its disposal - including appointing a special envoy - to secure Huseyin Celil’s immediate release. My dear friend and fellow @WallenbergGroup Senior Advocate @NicolasKamran & I have written about it in @OttawaCitizen today

"Celil continued his #advocacy for the #rights of #Uyghurs in #Canada, where he educated #Canadians about his community’s #culture, #religion, and continuous #persecution."

It has been 16 years & counting (5925 days) since "Uzbek authorities detained #Celil pursuant to a notice for his detention created by the Chinese government. He was barred from communicating with family or #Canadian officials." - @TheRWCHR's White Paper

The Wallenberg Advocacy Group (@TheRWCHR) at McGill University Faculty of Law (@LawMcGill) published a White Paper on the persecution of Huseyin Celil.

Huseyin Celil, a #Canadian, has been imprisoned in China for the past 16 years. Enough is enough.

"Yet, while 16 years have gone by since #Huseyin #Celil's imprisonment, the #Canadian #government has failed to establish a single consular visit or inquiry into his circumstances." #Uyghur #Rights

A powerful piece by @AliyaBehar and @NicolasKamran:

The Chinese government has forced Huseyin Celil into arbitrary detention for the past 16 years. In this Op-Ed, senior advocates @AliyaBehar and @NicolasKamran demand that Canada use all the tools at its disposal to secure his immediate release.

Today marks 16 years since Huseyin Celil's enforced disappearance at the hands of the Chinese government. In this open letter, former Canadian ambassadors and Ministers of Justice and Foreign Affairs are joining us in demanding his immediate release!

Canada can return to leader from laggard in global health by: 1) Placing COVID-19 vaccines & drugs on export list under Canada’s Access to Medicines Regime; 2) Support #TRIPSwaiver & tech transfer of vaccine technology. With @DreJoanneLiu & @JFredericMorin https://t.co/DHtAObULgX

WAG is proud to announce that we are adopting the case and cause of Huseyin Celil – a Canadian citizen who is arbitrarily detained and forcibly disappeared for no other reason than being Uyghur. We will not relent until he is released.
