Govt to seal off Rohingya camps

COX'S BAZAR, Dec 24 (AFP): Bangladesh will seal off refugee camps housing about one million Rohingya Muslims for three days around the country's tense general election this week, officials said Monday.
Rohingya living in the southeastern border district of Cox's Bazar will not be allowed out of their settlements from Saturday.
The election is Sunday with Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who earned international praise for accepting the refugees who fled a military crackdown in Myanmar, seeking a record fourth term.
