Abdul Haq (1 October 1971 – 15 February 2010) was a Uyghur who Chinese security officials asserted planned terrorist operations in China.〔 〕〔 〕 He was described as being the "overall leader" of the East Turkistan Islamic Party (ETIP). The United States Treasury reported he took over leadership of the organization in 2003, following the death of its previous leader, and took a seat on al Qaeda's shura, its central committee, in 2005.〔 The ETIP was designated as a terrorist organization in Executive Order 13224.〔 The United Nations Security Council's 1267 Committee placed him on a list of individuals suspected of having a tie to Osama bin Laden. Al Qaeda appointed Abdul Haq to their Shura Majlis.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=US airstrike killed 15 Turkistan Islamic Party fighters in Afghanistan )〕 In October 2008 Chinese security officials asserted that his real name was "Memetiming Memeti" (Uyghur: Memtimin Memet).〔〔 〕〔(“疆独”头目被美军炸死 身份信息曝光 )〕 They published half a dozen aliases. They reported he left China in March 1998, and becamse a trainer at a camp in a "South Asian country". Abdul Haq faced allegations that he was behind a bombing that preceded the Beijing Olympics.〔 Shirley Kan, of the Congressional Research Service, challenged the Treasury's description of Abdul Haq's role, in several details, in her testimony before the House International Relations Committee's Subcommittee on International Organizations, Human Rights, and Oversight.〔 〕 Kan asserted that the decision to designate the East Turkestan Islamic Party as a terrorist organization was controversial within the civil service. She called the first Chinese list of terrorist organizations, published in December 2003, as "intentionally misleading or mistaken", and pointed out several errors in it. She pointed out that it listed Hassan Mahsum as a wanted man, when he was already known to have been killed in action. She pointed out that Abdul Haq was not listed as a wanted man. She pointed out that while the Treasury document asserted Abdul Haq had directed followers to launch attacks prior to the Olympics no such attacks on the Olympics took place. (''China Daily'' reported on October 21, 2008 that "The Chinese police timely frustrated those criminal activities".)〔(Police: Eastern Turkistan terrorists wanted )〕 Kan also wrote a document entitled: ''"U.S.-China Counterterrorism Cooperation: Issues for U.S. Policy"''.〔 〕
On May 6, 2009, United States Senator Jeff Sessions published a letter he wrote to United States Attorney General Eric Holder, criticizing Holder for taking steps that could end up with setting the remaining Uyghur captives in Guantanamo free in the United States.〔 〕 According to Sessions: The following excerpt is from the ''Long War Journal'': On March 1, 2010, Abdul Haq was reported to have been killed by a missile launched from an unmanned drone on February 15, 2010.〔〔 〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Al Qaeda-linked Chinese terrorist leader reported killed in US strike in Pakistan )〕 ==See also== *East Turkestan Islamic Movement 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Abdul Haq (ETIP)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
