TIB condemns UN inaction over Rohingya persecution

Staff Correspondent: Transparency International Bangladesh (TIB) condemned the UN failure to take into cognizance and act upon a report of an independent expert it commissioned before the military crackdown in Myanmar.

In a statement issued on Sunday TIB expressed the condemnation.

The TIB termed the role of UN as unacceptable offense that the global body deliberately shelved the recommendation to be coherent and undertake serious contingency plan against the impending violation of human rights.

Executive director of TIB Dr Iftekharuzzaman said, "We call upon the UN to explain this inaction, particularly the inability of UN to practice what it preaches. No one, not least the UN, can be above accountability."
