Because they did not. At best you could claim that they ran abit of a police state, which is inherently abusive, similar to how minorities in American cities are currently treated, but the difference is that China brings in work, and offers free work training with anti-radicalization and Maderain language courses. Not only that, but most of this was at the behest of traditional Uighur community leaders, whose institutions were the primary targets of radical Wahabi terror bombings. The target wasn't Uighurs or Muslims, but the specifically radicalized ideology coming out of Saudi Arabian funded Afghanistan/Pakistan groups.

You're looking at anti-China propaganda, funded to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars every few years by the anglo-American governments and arms industries. BBC is one of the main offenders in terms of pumping out these allegations as fact. It's state media and the British government wants its subservient China back.
