China has released a most wanted list - 15 people it says had roles in the Xinjiang riots, which killed over 190 people and wounded over 1,700. 14 of the names released appeared to be Uyghur, according to the AP, while one was Han Chinese. The notice urged the suspects turned themselves in within the next 10 days if they wanted leniency. Those who the government had to hunt down would be "dealt with severely according to the law." Meanwhile, while China hasn't responded to Rebiya Kadeer's requests to hold talks, it did dispute her recent claim that 10,000 people are missing. A Xinjiang government spokesperson called the figure "groundless," adding "If there were more than 10,000 missing, how many more of them would have taken part in the riot?"
