💨 Abstract

A human rights group has urged Thailand to investigate the torture and death of a Myanmar migrant, Aung Ko Ko, by three soldiers. A Thai court convicted a Myanmar man, Sirachuch, for being an accomplice to the death, but he did not identify the soldiers involved. The case comes amid rising anti-migrant sentiment in Thailand, with ultra-conservative groups claiming lax regulation leads to an increase in illegal Myanmar migrants.
