Zumret Dawut was born and raised in Urumqi. Working as a shuttle trader between Urumqi and Pakistan, she would get married to Pakistani businessman Imran Muhemmed in 2005. The couple have three children together. Zumret’s passport was confiscated sometime in 2017. On March 31, 2018, she was called by the local neighborhood administration, after which she was taken to the local police station for questioning. Fixed to a tiger chair, she would then be interrogated about her marriage to a Pakistani and her bank transfers with Pakistan. She would then be hooded and taken to the Beyzen (北站) “training center”, where she would spend around two months, being released on June 2 thanks to negotiations by Pakistani diplomats on her husband’s behalf. Though she intended to leave the country immediately with her husband and kids, she was first forced to pay a 18000RMB fine for her third child being born “outside the plan”. She was then further required to undergo sterilization in order to be given permission to leave the country, and on October 22, 2018 she underwent the procedure in a local facility (previously an epidemic prevention center). In late January 2019, the family was finally able to leave for Pakistan – to see Imran’s sick father – on the condition that they return by February 27, 2019. Fearing for their safety, they went to the US on April 2, 2019 instead, applying for asylum there.
