Dozens of Rohingya refugees have demonstrated in Bangladesh camps, demanding the Myanmar government abide by the terms of its agreement with Bangladesh for the return of refugees in the coming days.


The demonstrators held a plaque in which they wrote their claims from the Myanmar government, including their stolen rights.


The preamble was the dispatch of UN peacekeepers with the return of refugees, the reinstatement of citizenship, the cessation of genocide against them and the compensation of Muslims affected by their money and property.


The protesters demanded that perpetrators be held accountable for extremist Buddhists, military and police personnel involved in killings, burning and rape.
