Indian authorities violently cracked down on Myanmar hunger strikers, injuring four of them, at a detention centre in Imphal Town, in India’s Manipur State, on 17 June.

99 Myanmar nationals are being held at the centre. They were convicted of immigration offences but, though all of them have completed their sentences and paid any fines imposed on them, they are still being held. Some are also worried that they will be handed back to the Myanmar junta.
