Rohingya rights group petitions Argentinian court to order extradition of Min Aung Hlaing

The Burmese Rohingya Organisation UK (BROUK) has formally petitioned the Argentinian judiciary to issue an international legal request asking Thai authorities to arrest and extradite Myanmar regime leader Min Aung Hlaing during his upcoming state visit to Bangkok on Aug. 6–7.

Min Aung Hlaing is visiting Thailand at the invitation of the Thai government. The legal motion by BROUK seeks to leverage international universal jurisdiction laws to hold the 2021 military coup leader accountable for genocide and crimes against humanity.
