Rohingyas fight for what’s right

-

Cox’s Bazar – Hundreds of Rohingya Muslim refugees in Bangladesh protested yesterday against attempts to send them back to Myanmar after sources in Bangladesh said the launch of a repatriati­on plan had been postponed.

Bangladesh had begun preparatio­ns to repatriate some Rohingyas yesterday, in line with a plan agreed with Myanmar in October. But there have been doubts about the plan and it has been opposed by the UN refugee agency.
