Abstract

Almost 7 years ago, Rohingya genocide left its horrible impact on humanity. The Rohingya genocide is a series of ongoing persecutions and killings of the Muslim Rohingya people by the Burmese military in Myanmar. It’s been almost five years since Gambia approached International Court of Justice against this attack on humanity by Myanmar but still the judgement is pending. The rohingyas were dispersed to other neighbouring countries and are living there in refugee camps since then. They are facing intensified restrictions on their movement, education and livelihood which is of utmost important for a human being to live with dignity. They are homeless. They are still waiting for the court the deliver its judgement so they can go back to their homes. The genocide against rohingyas is a gross violation of International law. More than 730,000 Rohingya fled to precarious, flood-prone camps in Bangladesh, while about 600,000 remain under oppressive rule in Myanmar. Rohingya Muslims are still awaiting justice and protection of their rights seven years after the Myanmar, military began a sweeping campaign of massacre, rapes and arson in northern Rakhine State. The proceedings of this case in ICJ should be fast tracked and it should be considered as top most priority. There is need to implement the international law for protecting humanity. The court should consider the point that delayed justice is another torture on the rohingyas. In this article we will discuss how Rohingyas are subjected to procrastination and what are its ill effects.
