The researchers of the Liberation War Museum’s Centre for the Study of Genocide and Justice presented the report at a programme in Dhaka on Saturday.
From testimonies of Rohingyas at refugee camps in Cox’s Bazar, the researchers found that the atrocities faced by the Rohingyas in the Rakhine State included mass killing in the form of gunning, slaughtering, beheading and burning people alive, including women and children.
Argentine Irina Massimino, an internationally renowned expert in genocide study, told the programme that the international community must take steps in this regard.
The Museum’s Trustee Mofidul Hoque was among others present at the programme.
