Kosrap

Sources contacted by the UAA were not able to confirm the details of the account in the official reports. However, sources living nearby the village where the raid is thought to have taken place – a village called Kosrap in Aktu County, around 20 miles south of Kashgar – do report a significantly increased security presence. UAA’s sources claim police are checking identity papers and searching vehicles in the vicinity of Kosrap Village; meanwhile, official reports claim that police are still searching for people who escaped from the alleged camp, supposedly either before or during the raid.
