Hundreds of Rohingya refugees have disappeared from a makeshift camp in Indonesia, with officials and sources believing they have been trafficked to neighbouring Malaysia.
Only 112 refugees remain from nearly 400 who arrived last year, as many are desperate to reach Malaysia, often enlisting smugglers despite warnings about the dangers.
Authorities have apprehended some missing refugees and suspected traffickers in transit cities, highlighting the risks involved in these illegal journeys.
Rights groups criticize the Indonesian government for reducing security at the camp, arguing it breached its obligations to protect the vulnerable refugees after they were placed under UNHCR supervision.
