Myanmar erects security posts on burned Rohingya land

YANGON: Myanmar is building security installations on top of razed Rohingya villages, Amnesty International said on Monday, casting doubt on plans to repatriate hundreds of thousands of refugees.

Nearly 700,000 Rohingya Muslims have fled northern Rakhine state to Bangladesh since Myanmar launched a brutal crackdown on insurgents six months ago that the US and UN have called ethnic cleansing.
