Migrants and refugees who turn up on its shores have testified that they are being sent back to sea in boats without engines, their hands tied, left to their fate. Hundreds are thought to have suffered this treatment - among them many Rohingya people of western Burma - and many have died. The BBC's Jonathan Head in Bangkok has been investigating what has been happening." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7834075.stm BANGKOK, Thailand (CNN) -- Thailand's military has denied abusing refugee boat-people from Myanmar after claims some were whipped on a tourist beach and hundreds more left dead or missing after being towed at to sea without food and water. http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/asiapcf/...ailand.myanmar/ Edited January 17, 2009 by OlRedEyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
