  • Crimes against Humanity in Western Burma: The Situation of the Rohingyas
    A report from Irish Centre for Human Rights about the Rohingya in Western Burma.
    The Report is based on extensive research and on a fact-finding mission to Burma,
    Thailand and Bangladesh conducted by experts in international criminal investigation.
    As well as interviewing organisations working in the region, investigators met with Rohingya victims in and around refugee camps in Bangladesh. The Rohingyas’ plight has been overlooked for years and the root causes of their situation still remain under-examined. The Irish Centre for Human Rights’ Report identifies and discusses some of these causes and concludes the Rohingyas have been victims of human rights violations amounting to crimes against humanity.
