Pakistan all weather friend China banned all muslims in Xinxiang( East Turkestan) capital city Urumqi from offering Friday prayers,As the people of pakistan do feel strongly for All muslims in this world and consider Pakistan as a legitimate leader for Muslims rights across the globe, whether its Israel Atrocities on palestinian Muslim or Babri mosque demolition and godhra riots in India and brutalities of Indian armed forces in Kashmir and elsewhere.
So i just want to know how people of pakistan feel about this, becuase on the one hand is Pakistan's best friend China and on the other hand is muslim brotherhood , the very basis of Pakistan creation, whom People of pakistan will support, Govt of china crackdown or muslims struggle in Xinxiang( East Turkestan)?

The normally bustling mosques of China's Urumqi city were orderedshut on the main Muslim day of prayer on Friday with police out in force to prevent new outbreaks of deadly ethnic unrest. Uighur Muslims said they had been directed to pray at home, as armed forces saturated the streets of the northwest Xinjiang region's capital five days after clashes that authorities said left 156 people dead. "The government said there would be no Friday prayers," said a Uighur man named Tursun outside the Hantagri mosque, one of the oldest in the capital, as about 100 policemen carrying machine guns and batons stood guard nearby. Xinjiang's eight million Uighurs have long complained about religious, political and economic repression under Chinese rule, and this deep-set anger spilled out on Sunday in protests that quickly turned violent. The Chinese government said 156 people were killed and more than 1,000 others were injured, as Uighur Muslims attacked people from China's dominant Han ethnic group.
