Crimes documented in Kachin, Shan and Rakhine include murder, imprisonment, torture, rape, sexual slavery, persecution and enslavement that undoubtedly amount to the gravest crimes under international law. At least 700,000 Rohingya fled violence in Myanmar in the past 12 months.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. In particular, we're not sure what you mean by "hold accountable".

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking the UK Government to impose financial sanctions on the Myanmar Government, if that's what you'd like to happen.

You maybe interested to know that on 16 April, MPs debated several petitions about Myanmar’s Rohingya minority.
