Thailand's Asylum Crackdown: BBC Special

Post by Maple »

"Chris Rogers goes undercover in Thailand, exposing how the country treats asylum seekers. Thailand does not recognise refugees."

"A BBC investigation has found that Thailand, a country known for its hospitality to tourists, routinely arrests and detains asylum seekers. Many are Pakistani Christians who have fled religious persecution in their own country. Some are children. And they are held despite being UN-registered asylum seekers, whom the UN is under a duty to protect."
