A U.N. whistleblower accused former U.N. human rights chief Navi Pillay, who was announced as the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday, of ignoring and even being “complicit in the Uyghur genocide.”
Almost as soon as Pillay, 85, was chosen for the award, a flurry of criticisms emerged, largely around her focus on Israel and her accusation that the country is committing genocide in Gaza, as well as her alleged selective prosecutions of human rights.

Emma Reilly, a former U.N. human rights officer-turned-whistleblower, denounced her award on Friday, holding her personally responsible for the U.N.’s lack of action toward China and its abuses against its Uyghur minority. She claimed that under Pillay’s leadership, the U.N. human rights commission turned over a list of the names of Uyghur dissidents and their families to Chinese authorities.
“Unfortunately, the winner is an absolute disgrace,” she said, in statements carried by UN Watch, adding that Pillay was “quite literally complicit in the Uyghur genocide.”
“If she didn’t have diplomatic immunity, three victims would have sued her. How much has China subverted human rights? Well, Navi Pillay just got the Nobel Peace Prize. The same Navi Pillay who was High Commissioner when I first reported the UN handing names of dissidents to China. Her response? Bring her a different chair, she was uncomfortable,” Reilly added.
