2014年1月15日下午，民族大学维吾尔族学者伊力哈木·土赫提被警察从北京家中带走
，并对其家进行两次长达数小时的搜查。迄今伊力哈木下落不明，其妻儿母亲被限制自

现年44岁的伊力哈木·土赫提是民族大学国际结算专业的副教授。他于2006年创办的“
维吾尔在线”网站，面对封杀打压坚持至今，成为让中文世界了解新疆问题真实状况的
重要窗口。伊力哈木始终反对新疆独立与任何暴力行为，积极推动维吾尔族和汉族之间
的友好沟通，他把解决新疆问题的主要希望寄托于中国政府调整错误的新疆政策。为此
他对当局现行新疆政策进行批评，同时提出各种改进建议。他的批评和建议皆以认真的

我们呼吁：
1.当局马上释放伊力哈木，否则就应公布伊力哈木“涉嫌违法案件”的案情，拿出足以
服人的事实和证据，而非以言治罪。
2.警方必须保证伊力哈木的人身权利，允许伊力哈木本人和家人委托的律师介入案件并
依法会见当事人，解除对其家人的非法人身限制。

Petition for the Immediate Release of Professor Ilham Tohti
In the afternoon on January 15, 2014, China’s Minzu University Uighur
scholar Ilham Tohti was taken from his home in Beijing by the police. His
home was also ransacked twice. His whereabouts are unknown to this day.
Authorities have also restricted his wife and mother’s movements. On
January 16, 2014, the spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry said that Tohti
was suspected of committing crimes and violating the law.
Forty-four year old Ilham Tohti is an associate professor of economics at
Minzu University. In 2006, he founded the website Uighur Biz. Despite being
constantly blocked and suppressed, it has become an important window for the
Chinese-speaking world to know about the reality of the Xinjiang situation.
Ilham Tohit has always opposed Xinjiang independence and violence of any
kind. He actively pushes for friendly communication between Uighurs and
Chinese. He put his faith of solving the Xinjiang issue in the Chinese
government adjusting its problematic Xinjiang policy. Because of this, he
has criticized the Chinese government’s Xinjiang policy, and at the same
time, proposed various changes. His criticism and suggestions are all based
on serious academic research. He is regarded by the intellectual community
as a precious man who bridges Uighurs with Chinese, and by the local
Xinjiang people as a courageous representative of Uighurs. In the future, he
should be an important civic leader in solving the Xinjiang issue, and play
an irreplaceable role in ethnic reconciliation.
We strongly urge:
1. Chinese authorities to release Ilham Tohti immediately, otherwise,
announce the details of his alleged “crimes.” Authorities should use
evidences to prove the case, rather than criminalizing speech.
2. The police must guarantee to Ilham Tohti individual rights, allowing a
lawyer of his or his family’s choosing to be involved and meet with him.
The police should also withdraw from unlawfully restricting the movements of
his family.
Since the 2008 Lhasa violence to the 2009 Urumqi riots to today, the failure
of China’s ethnic policy is obvious to all. The detention of Ilham Tohti
demonstrates that the Chinese government is continuing its mistakes. The
Communist Party’s grip on power is temporary, but the wellbeing of the
Chinese people should be lasting. The Chinese Communist Party maintains
present stability by sacrificing the future of the people. Every Chinese
citizen has the right to hold the Communist party accountable, taking shared
responsibility for the sake of the future of the country. Citizens of other
countries may also pay attention to this event, because the suffering of
the Uighur people is the suffering of all human beings, and China’s failure
could jeopardize the entire world.
By signing the petition, we express our concern over Ilham Tohti!
