Malaysia investigates police over links to mass graves...

Malaysia is investigating 12 policemen suspected of involvement in human-trafficking camps found in the remote north of the country.
Four of them had been arrested during various police investigations since early last year, said Deputy Home Minister Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar. Authorities said 139 graves had been found on the border with Thailand. The route is used by people-smugglers bringing migrants from Myanmar and Bangladesh into Malaysia. The migrants are mainly Rohingya Muslims fleeing persecution in Myanmar - also known as Burma - or economic migrants from Bangladesh. Read more on bbc.
