On Nov. 16, 2019, the New York Times reported that it acquired 403 pages of "leaked files" from "a member of Chinese political establishment". The content of those files concerns China's ethnic and religious policies and counter-terrorism and de-radicalization efforts in Xinjiang.

Since from New York Times reported the "leaked files" on November 16th, no think tank or research institution has conducted any research and analysis on it. This possibly was because the source of documents is unclear, and its authenticity is not verifiable. Despite their lack of authenticity, the content of the "leaked files" can be used as a reference and attracts public attention to Chinese long-term ethnic and religious policy and practice.
