Guterres supported the United Nations refugee agency on concerns over Rohingya repatriation

His spokesman Stephen Dujarik said on Friday that General Secretary Antonio Gueretes was standing behind the concern of the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNRA) about India's concern on sending back seven Rohingyas on Tuesday. After reading the brief version of the statement issued by UNR in Geneva, in response to a question he said in his daily briefing that Gutters is standing behind the agency, which is the United Nations in dealing with refugees. Its spokesman Mr. Mahesik said in Geneva, "United Nations refugee agency is very worried about the safety and security of seven Myanmar citizens returning to India from Myanmar on Thursday." Philippines High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Filippo Granddi requested Indian authorities to reach seven Rohingyas in custody in 2012 from India. UNHCR "Sorry the agency did not get the answer to this request and it was not able to secure access to the state legal service lawyer." He said, "UNHCR continues to demand clarification from the authorities on the circumstances under which these persons were returned to Myanmar." The Supreme Court had earlier appealed to Prashant Bhushan, a prominent lawyer, to stop deportation. India's Foreign Affairs Ministry spokesman Ravish Kumar said that the government had ratified the desire to return seven Rohingya before the return mechanism. Meenakshi Ganguly, South Asia Director of South Rights Director (HRW) said in a statement: "Forcing any Rohingya back to Myanmar is now a serious threat to repression and abuse." He said, "The Indian government has ignored its long tradition of protection of the people who took shelter within their borders." According to HRW, 32 Rohingya refugees, including seven minors, have been detained in Assam. "They are mostly considered from the Rakhine state of Myanmar and were arrested by the Railway Police in 2014." Seventh, who was displaced on Thursday, had come to India before the outbreak of violence in the Rakhine state in August last year, due to which 700,000 Rohingya were fleeing from Bangladesh, where they now live in squalid camps. On the Myanmarcy security posts, the attacks by an organization, Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army led by Ataullah Abu Ammar Junihi, born of Pakistan, gave birth to vicious attacks by security forces and civilian cautions. Several thousand Rohingya were killed in the attacks and their villages had pointed towards the escape. Guterres called it "textbook case of ethnic cleansing" and demanded punishment for responsible people.
