Suu Kyi's genocide denial all lies, say Rohingya refugees

COX'S BAZAR, Bangladesh (AP): Rohingya refugees accused former Myanmar pro-democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi of lying to the International Court of Justice in testimony on Wednesday (Dec 11) in which she denied that her country's armed forces were guilty of genocide against the Muslim minority group.

Suu Kyi, who is now Myanmar's leader, told the court that the exodus of hundreds of thousands of Rohingya Muslims to neighbouring Bangladesh was the unfortunate result of a battle with insurgents.
