![]() 'Sheer violence' Only separatist organizations can conduct assaults of this magnitude, said Yang Jianxin, director of the ethnic studies center in Gansu-based Lanzhou University. Barry Sautman, an expert on China's ethnic policies at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, said some secessionists used a brawl between Uygur and Han workers in a Shaoguan toy factory in Guangdong province to orchestrate the riot. "Without presenting evidence, the World Uygur Congress, the main confederation of separatist organizations, has claimed that this amounted to 'government ethnic cleansing'," Sautman said. He said "if that and similar views were spread to Xinjiang, they would have a provocative effect and contribute to" the violent incident in Urumqi.
