Merdan Ghappar, 31, used to be a fashion model for Chinese online retailer Taobao. His photo appeared on BBC News earlier this month, but it had nothing to do with his modeling career. Instead, it was a video footage of the inhumane conditions he experienced at a detention center where he and other Uyghur Muslims are currently being detained in China’s far western region of Xinjiang.
On Aug. 4, BBC released a video that shows Ghappar detained in a room with his right hand holding the camera, and left hand handcuffed to the metal frame of the bed.
