Rohingyas in India's Jammu fear deportation

Indian police have begun the process of deporting 150 Rohingya refugees back to Myanmar after they were found living illegally and were detained in the northern region of Jammu and Kashmir, two officials said on Sunday (March 7).

Dozens of Rohingya are in a makeshift "holding center" at Jammu's Hira Nagar jail after local authorities conducted biometric and other tests to verify their identities.

Rohingyas living in the region said they were concerned about the weekend's detentions and the threat of deportation.

"The police took some Rohingyas in their vehicle. Why did the police take them? What are they doing to them? What is happening? We don't have any information about them. We are facing a lot of problems and the families of the detained are crying."

Myanmar at this time perhaps this can be stopped. I'll be watching this closely and raising
hell. In a good way.
