Chairman of the Independent International Fact-Finding Mission on Myanmar Marzuki Darusman underlined that the “International Conference on National, Regional and International Mechanisms to Combat Impunity and Ensure Accountability under International Law”, which was held in Doha recently, will mobilise the world’s efforts to stop the genocide against the Rohingya Muslim minority, and to hold the perpetrators accountable, in Myanmar and elsewhere.
In an interview with Al Watan published on Thursday, Darusman stressed the need for support of the international community to the position of the Finding Mission on Myanmar because the path of justice is long and faces great resistance, referring in this context to the support provided by the State of Qatar to the mission.
He noted that Qatar provided a package of solutions to that tragedy to the United Nations, and invited the Fact-Finding Mission to participate in the international conference on combating impunity, which was very important and extraordinary event.
Darusman reiterated the importance of the International Conference on National, Regional and International Mechanisms to Combat Impunity and Ensure Accountability under International Law, which he said has no less significance than Davos Forum and called it “human rights Davos”.
He explained that the conference contributes to the achievement of justice and the conduct of investigations into gross violations of human rights, noting that accountability is complex in this area and sometimes leads to many problems until reconciliation.
He added that accountability must be in tandem with the issue of reparation for victims and investigations into crimes against humanity, which is a long legal process that ends with justice and preventing impunity. He stressed that without accountability justice and redress to the victims will not be achieved.
On the situation in Myanmar, the head of the Fact-Finding Mission said that the situation is very complex because the crimes have been continuing.
First, massacres and attacks must be stopped and second, investigations for accountability must be held in order to achieve justice, he stressed.
He spoke about the difficulties encountered by the Mission in respect of the crimes committed against the Rohingya in Myanmar, such as the absence of a state of law where courts are affected by political ambiguities.
In addition, the whole society is working fully against the Rohingya minority; therefore, the Mission does not find cooperation to achieve easy trials. Moreover, the evidences of violations have been destroyed by the society and the government, and there many other challenges that obstacle the establishment of a genuine justice in Myanmar.
