Myanmar’s top court rejected Tuesday the final appeal of two Reuters journalists jailed while working on an investigation into the killing of 10 Rohingya Muslim men and boys. The Supreme Court’s decision upheld seven-year prison sentences for Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo. The court did not give a reason for its ruling, which was quickly condemned by rights groups. The two reporters were arrested in December 2017 and sentenced last September. They were charged with illegally possessing official documents. The documents related to security operations taking place in the western state of Rakhine. In August 2017, suspected Rohingya militants launched attacks against state security forces in Rakhine. In answer, government troops carried out attacks against the rebels and their supporters. About 700,000 Rohingya fled the area to escape the violence.
