Rohingya Children - Sold By Their Own

Over the weekend the Rohingya were in the global news again. On Friday Rohingya militants attacked 30 police stations and clashes continued on Saturday. This has lead to thousands fleeing their homes towards the Bangladesh border. But Bangladeshi border guards are turning them back and some reports suggest they are shooting at refugees as well. Today we ask about the phenomenon of child brides among the refugee community.
