“如果真的关心、想念我们,请和我们联系。” Aziz Niyaz and Meryam Gayit, a couple that live in Kuqa county of Aksu Prefecture, are labeled online as missing by their own daughter Mahire. She claimed her parents were oppressed by the Chinese government and banned from contacting her, while in fact they are living a “quite good” retirement life centered around their 3-year-old grandson. “I am very upset. She used to be an honest girl. I don't know why she would make up such stories about us. We live very well. If she really cares about us or misses us, we ask her: please just contact us.”
