A US federal judge has ordered Facebook to release records of accounts connected to anti-Rohingya violence in Myanmar that the social media giant had shut down, rejecting its argument about protecting privacy as"rich with irony."
But the judge said the posts, which were deleted, would not be covered under the law and not sharing the content would"compound the tragedy that has befallen the Rohingya". More than 730,000 Rohingya Muslims fled Myanmar's Rakhine state in August 2017 after a military crackdown that refugees said including mass killings and rape. Rights groups documented killings of civilians and burning of villages.
Gambia wants the data for a case against Myanmar it is pursuing at the International Court of Justice in the Hague, accusing Myanmar of violating the 1948 U.N. Convention on Genocide.
