A United Nations human rights investigator on Friday urged the Myanmar government led by Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi to investigate last week's mob attack on a mosque and crack down on religious violence.
In one of the most serious outbursts of inter-religious violence in months, a group of men from a village in central Myanmar last week destroyed a mosque in a dispute over its construction and beat up a Muslim man.
In a separate incident on Friday, Buddhists burned down a Muslim prayer hall in northern Kachin State, police said. (Courtesy of uk.reuters.com)
