Bangladesh on Tuesday vowed to bring human traffickers to justice as boats carrying hundreds of its nationals alongside Rohingyas from Myanmar continued to bounce between South East Asian countries as they turned them away. “We will take action against those who have trafficked people illegally...,” State Minister for Home Affairs Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal said. He said a lack of security around the 250 kilometres border region in northeastern Chittagong Hill Tracts adjacent to Myanmar and open to Bay of Bengal was largely responsible for the massive human trafficking.
