Never heard of her, but why can't her partner (Kaidi?) leave? Can't they sneak across the border and start a new life I dunno... in Europe, Australia, Japan, or something?
I'm not sure I understand... why would the Chinese keep somebody they are racist against in the country? To continue being racist against them? Wouldn't they want them to leave? Or are they being treated as free labor?
I’m guessing it’s also not feasible to get her a visa on the other side, meaning nowhere to go. I also wouldn’t be surprised if her family being more closely watched and targeted if they leave isn’t also part of why they feel they can’t.
Every victim of suppression that leaves is a possible dissident operating from abroad
Her partner is Uighur.
You're looking at it from a logical view,
The answer is pretty much that her partner is a minority that the state hates, so they want to punish that person and anyone who supports her,
And it's just that. Perhaps they could escape, but I presume they both have family there, and then they may not be able to return, etc.
