sep 22, 2017 - International People's Tribunal

Description:

An international people’s tribunal on Friday held Myanmar guilty of “genocide” against Rohingya Muslims and said the “systematic targeting of civilians” and other acts committed by the Myanmar Army must be qualified as war crimes. A seven-member bench of the Permanent People’s Tribunal (PPT), holding proceedings on alleged atrocities against the Rohingya, said the Army was committing the crime in the “context of official duties.”
