Government leniency will be extended to terrorists in Xinjiang who voluntary turn themselves in.
The local government of Xinjiang committed to giving gentler punishments to "separatists, terrorists and religious extremists" who voluntary surrender.
Terrorists in Xinjiang have been a source of violence in the region. Many have been killed and injured because of the conflict between the Chinese and the Muslim Uyghurs.
The Muslims are demanding independence from China. ISIS and Chinese rebels released a viral video recently threatening to commit more attacks that will cost the lives of many.
The video was released by U.S. intelligence and the translation of the rebels' statement said, "We are the soldiers of the Caliphate, and we will come to you to clarify to you with the tongues of our weapons, to shed blood like rivers and avenging the oppressed."
A bomb exploded near the regional Communist Party office in Xinjiang last year that killed four terrorists and one bystander.
State media claimed that the incident was a terrorist attack, but no other details were released.
The rebels denied the allegation that they caused the incident. Dilxat Raxit, a spokesman for the World Uyghur Congress, said that the reports were unclear.
"I strongly doubt the casualty toll and reason for the incident from official reports, which lack transparency," he said.
Leniency is given by the government to individuals who have committed violations of the family planning law and promotion of religious beliefs.
The local government also said that they will offer monetary compensation depending on the situation to those who turn themselves in.
"Exemption from punishment" will be given to individuals who give full confessions or provide information on terrorist activities.
However, experts believe that government intervention makes the conflict worse.
Raffaello Pantucci, director of International Security Studies of the Royal United Services Institute in the U.K. said, "When we see the government involved in a very heavy crackdown, it hasn't really ever solved the problem, it hasn't made it go away."
He added, "In some cases, it has made it worse."
