Thai police arrest 48 Rohingya on bus in Ratchaburi Province

[snoop1130]

 

Highway police intercepted a bus in Pak Tho district of Ratchaburi Province today (Wednesday) and found 48 undocumented Rohingya migrants and three Thais on board.

 

The three Thais, including the bus driver, told the police that they picked up the Rohingya in the central province of Suphan Buri to take them to the southern province of Songkhla, which borders Malaysia.

 

They claimed that, after Songkhla, they had no idea to where the Rohingya would be sent, because their job was to bus them to Songkhla only.

Surely they can claim asylum in Thailand or Malaysia?

I now wonder what miserable low wage job that Thai's are unwilling to do? Modern day salvery.  Yes, spelling is for Thai Laws of the Internet.

Traffickers.

Do the right thing and send them on to Malaysia (or Turkey).

Hopefully they will not be returned to their country of origin as the ruling government there does not respect any form of human rights and especially if you are a Rohingya.
