Gambia calls for binding emergency measures to be put in place, including for Myanmar to take all steps possible to prevent further genocide against the Rohingya ethnic minority in Rakhine state.
"The ICOE has not found any evidence suggesting that these killings or acts of displacement were committed pursuant to an intent or plan to destroy the Muslim or any other community in northern Rakhine State," it said.
"There is insufficient evidence to argue, much less conclude, that the crimes committed were undertaken with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, or with any other requisite mental state for the international crime of genocide." "All signs point to what human rights experts and Rohingya themselves already know, which is that the government has no intention of bringing perpetrators of mass rape and other genocidal crimes to justice," Akila Radhakrishnan, president of the Global Justice Centre, said.
She pointed out that the report"also seemingly fails, like the Government of Myanmar, to use the term 'Rohingya', which continues to deny the identity of the group".
