In a speech at a rally Friday, Maung Sawyeddollah, founder of the Rohingya Students Network, said that the day was a reminder of the atrocities that have scarred the Rohingyas’ lives and an opportunity to convey their disappointment to the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court over delayed justice.
In 2019, Gambia filed a genocide case against Myanmar at the International Court of Justice. In the same year, the International Criminal Court authorized an investigation into the alleged genocide by the Myanmar military against the Rohingya.
In a WhatsApp interview with VOA, Sawyeddollah called on the outside world “to provide the Rohingya refugees with the necessary tools to rebuild our lives.”
