I Write to you in response to the accusation by General Prayuth Chan-ocha, chiet of the Thai army, that some Cambodian Muslims have joined the violent insurgency in the deep south of Thailand and that they are providing indirect financial support to the insurgent networks. The implication is that Cambodian Muslims may soon be prevented from entering Thailand from Cambodia or will at the very least be monitored aggressively.
Information Source : Racial and religious profiling of Cambodian Muslips by Thai enforcement agencies would be a serious breach of their human rights, would exacerbate political tensions, and must be resisted
