'It's like my husband became air.' More than a dozen accounts collected by CNN detail the alleged detention and deportation of Uyghurs at China's request in three major Muslim countries: Egypt, the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
Istanbul, Turkey Amannisa Abdullah and her husband, Ahmad Talip, were on their way to shop for baby clothes in Dubai, when the message that changed both their lives came through. Ahmad read it and announced an abrupt change of plan: He had to report to a police station immediately.
Ahmad dropped Amannisa off at a friend's house that day in February 2018, promising to pick her up later. He never came back. In their Dubai apartment, a sleepless Amannisa prayed and cried through the night, watching the hours pass as her repeated calls to Ahmad went unanswered. The next morning, the heavily pregnant 29-year-old shuffled out of the door, hugging her 5-year-old son close. They hailed a taxi to the police station where she tried to explain her predicament to a police officer.
