Elyas Reheman has gone missing. His family believe the Chinese authorities have secretly detained him
Over two years ago, Yiliyasijiang (Elyas) Reheman went missing. His wife Mairinisha suspects he’s in one of China’s secret internment camps for ethnic Uyghur people. Dear John, I’m writing to you to ask you to help me reunite my family. I haven’t seen my husband since 2017. I miss talking to him, I miss hearing his voice. I am scared I will forget what he sounds like. Please call on the Chinese Government to release Elyas now. I loved watching him play with our eldest, they were like best friends. He never had the chance to play with his youngest daughter, or just hold her hand in his, because she was born after he was cruelly taken from us. They have never even met. Giving birth to her without him by my side was heartbreaking. I fear he has been detained in China but I have never been told where he is or even why he was detained; I have no information about him after all this time. Where is he? I wonder about this every day. Is he safe? Is he being treated well? We miss him so much. I just want to know where he is, to speak to him again, to make sure he is safe and well. Most of all I want my children to see their father again. They are growing up so fast and he is missing out on precious memories of their childhood. While I wait for us to be together once again, I won’t stop fighting. I demand that my husband is released as soon as possible. What the authorities have done has destroyed our family, separating my innocent children from their father. They need their father, and so do I. I will never give up until we can be reunited. Please join me in demanding his release so that we can be a family once more. Thank you, Mairinisha Abuduaini
