Event Summary

A criminal case has been filed in Indonesia against Myanmar's newly-elected President Min Aung Hlaing, accusing him of genocide against the Rohingya people. This complaint, filed by Yasmin Ullah and Indonesian civil society organizations, leverages Indonesia's universal jurisdiction laws. The accusations stem from a 2017 offensive by Myanmar's armed forces that displaced over 730,000 Rohingya people into Bangladesh, and a 2021 coup led by Min Aung Hlaing that resulted in civil war and a humanitarian crisis. Myanmar has consistently denied genocide, but this case adds to international pressure, including a similar accusation by The Gambia at the International — International Criminal Court.
