6:03 pm
a police state about which so little information gets out. we've really never seen anything like it. monique is in the researcher past the data on $214.00 international media companies, including germany's backlash up on funk and dash beagle and b. b. c. news. after weeks of examining the data, the team of reporters verified and evaluated it. among other findings was a shoot to kill order for prisoners attempting to escape from the internment camps . this doesn't surprise human rights organizations. gina and the china is undoubtedly committing crimes against humanity, at least in terms of torture and other mistreatment imprisonment and persecution for them. the chinese government has yet to respond to a comprehensive inquiry about the research in an official statement. it says that the measures taken and she and jen were solely directed at terrorist threats. and that the people they are quote, live happily. and adrian's n says they china research who received those files and passed them on to
6:04 pm
international news organizations is a senior fellow for china studies that the victims of communism, memorial foundation and an expert on china's minority policy. i asked him if he had any doubts about the files, authenticity. i don't know. it's always possible to fake documents. it's a lot harder to fake images. and it's especially even much harder to take this amount of image material and as type of image material em how you can reconstruct scenes of heavily on post police for sub machine guns. so be subduing detainees and putting them in handcuffs. why do you think this data was linked to you? it was slicked to me shortly after published the syndrome papers. another set of linked internal files. confidential speeches of shit. jumping. i've been publishing a lot of these leaks and been receiving this leaks because i specialize in the analysis and authentication of chinese government documents. right. so you would be
6:05 pm
the sensible person if one was a whistleblower 2 to send these 2. and where do you think these, these, this data actually come from? do you think this is so more within the chinese system or as the system been hacked, the system has been hacked. that's for sure. it was a hacking attack, a right straight into police computers, even into internment camp computers penetrating the chinese systems. and getting the evidence straight from the horse's mouth. and which of the stories in what appears to be quite a distressing catalogue. which of the stories stood out most for you? what stood out for me is the mass internment off completely, clearly, innocent people. i mean, if you look at the, the, the evidence that comes with these files, the spreadsheets, the reasons for the attention. you know,
6:06 pm
you have like young teenagers or old women. and the files don't even say they have done anything. that's merely guilt by association. these people simply have like a parent in detention or, or relative and that's really all that they've done. what is surprising about the, the image in the data that's been released? is it the questions that he throws up? for instance, why would chinese authorities, apparently documents so thoroughly the sorts of mistreatment that they have always denied carrying out oh, i'm not surprised at all, because i have seen the 20 states document its own policies meticulously, part of that as a lack of trust in the system em lower level administrations have to prove that a implementing policy and it's a lot of requirements. these internment camps, they have to hold drills, and they are regularly inspected by superiors. and i believe the images were likely created during one of those visits by
6:07 pm
a superior officials. and that's how so much of the material that we have been gathering over the past years has in fact, i think, been generated. now the story has been published by various media outlets around the world as the un high commissioner for human rights is actually a visiting. as in john, what do you think a chinese host will lead to michelle basher? let's see. i think the chinese have had many years to prepare for this and it was very carefully and control what specially can see, even if they show her prison, they're going to make sure all of these are just hardened criminals. real terrorists were in there. so i think officially on such a high profile visit, she's not going to see anything you and i think it was a real mistake of her to go personally, she should have sent in low level recognizance teams, low level investigative teams without any photo ops. just trying to find out information and move around without this grant entourage because you think
6:08 pm
otherwise she's being used by the chinese state. yes, she absolutely has been used for for the opportunities. we saw the photo with one ear smiling and holding up something. it's, it's, i think it's a travesty on the back of this atrocity to be doing this. i think someone like specially, should know better and should think carefully what she does. thank you so much for joining us. adrian's answer expert on china's of minority policy. 3 months into the war in ukraine and the fighting has moved largely to the east of the country where rushes, making slow progress in its attempts to control the dumbass region of some of the towns outside kiva, so devastating fighting still struggling to recover the w correspondent mags xander has been to the town of hostel mail where an international team of psychologists is helping residents deal with their experiences. a busy morning at the clinic and the key of suburb hostile metals, bullet holes in the windows,

6:25 pm
from france so, so that sort of incognito, rudy. that sort of dissonance is really been a part of this entire camp film festival. right. and so the, the war is being reflected in the films and discussions going on that up to a degree. yes. there are a lot of ukrainian filmmakers here. i spoken to a number of them, there's a certain focus on ukrainian film and ukrainian cinema here that that's one of the stories ukrainians have to tell, particularly about this conflict. but this is in the, at the end, a film festival look and the focus is on the movies more than the politics. so the, the, everyone really is talking about what are the hot films, what are the interesting movies being shown here? um, there is a huge buzz around a political film at one that's not about ukraine called triangle of sadness. it's a social satire about modern day capitalism, about supermodels and the super rich, who find their social status overturned after a major disaster on a yacht. really funny movie,
