The team investigates how "actively engaged" the Government of Canada is on the case of Huseyin Celil. Plus, the team makes their final round of calls to the Xinjiang No. 1 Prison in a last-ditch attempt to learn anything about Huseyin's location and well-being. This time, there's a new and surprising response from the jail. Finally, host Yusuf Zine reflects on the results of this search for Huseyin - and adds his own personal letter to the piles of correspondence trying to reach him.

17 years ago, Chinese authorities imprisoned a Canadian Uyghur refugee named Huseyin Celil on false charges of terrorism and murder. No one has heard from him since 2017. How can a Canadian disappear in China without recourse? Host Yusuf Zine finds a clue on Huseyin's last known location and asks how the Canadian government can be shut out of a citizen's trial abroad and why this consular case lost public attention.

‘Extradition: The Search for Huseyin Celil’ reopens the diplomatic cold case of a Canadian Uyghur refugee imprisoned in China. In the wake of the release of the Two Michaels in 2021, the series re-examines why Canada couldn’t do the same for Huseyin. With China implementing harsher crackdowns on its Uyghur Muslim population, Huseyin was cut off from communicating from his family. No one knows how he’s doing or where he is. This six-part investigative series from TVO Today investigates whether the Canadian government has done all it can to release him and takes matters into its own hands to get more information on Huseyin’s whereabouts today. Hosted by Yusuf Zine.
