Its totally wrong and baseless….My business partner is now in China…I spoked to him on skype ..He says its totally wrong…every muslim is free to keep fast ….its seems Indian agent propaganda.
this ban is not properly enforced in regions other than xinjiang... xinjiang is a very great area where muslims live in huge majority...
in xinjiang there is ban on fasting..
chinese police go in markets and roads of muslim majority area and offer muslims to eat something.. so some muslims
eat food out of fear... there were also such
incidents that those muslims who refused to eat were beaten by chinese police...
in this thread some members have said that their relatives and friends in china have said that this is true.. there is ban on fasting in china...
china cannot do this in beijing and other cities where muslims are in minority... for example out of
every hundred people there are 5 muslims in a market of beijing or any other city... now
chinese police would not do much effort to offer food to 100 people just to break fast of 5 muslims.. however in muslim majority areas like xingiang there is ban on fasting...
many people who have visited xingiang have told this...
i do not know exactly about this year, but
during the last ramdhan there were many news that chinese police has attacked several mosques in xingiang and tortured the muslims who were performing taraaweeh...
this ramdhan the situation is comparatively little bit easier for muslims as compared to last year...
probably china is now more focusing on its flood affected areas this year... there is flood nowadays in china.. so the attention of chinese authouricities is
diverted...
but during previous 4 to 5 ramdhans,
many muslims were brutally tortured by chinese police because they refused to eat.. china also
banned taraweeh.. during taraweeh time
chinese police used to attack several mosques and captured those muslims who were performing taraweeh.. when muslim women protested the capture of their relatives,
the muslim women were beaten and tortured by chinese police...
during all previous ramdhans it was a routine...
during this ramdhan there are
comparatively less incidents of torture on muslims and raids on mosques... probably because their is
flood in china..
but still some incidents have been reported..
about
3 or four weeks ago about
50 people were killed in xinjiang in
clashes between muslims and police..
in mid of 2009 hundreds of muslims were killed in xinjiang.
