China has over 21 million Muslims of which half are Uyghurs.
China alleges that separatist East Turkistan Islamic Movement (ETIM), an Al-Qaeda affiliated outfit has become active in the province bordering Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Afghanistan and carrying out violent attacks in Xinjiang and other parts of the country in which scores killed and injured.
China alleges that ETIM fighters from Xinjiang have also joined the Islamic State in Syria which recently executed a Chinese national Fan Jinghui along the Norwegian national.
