The three-person United Nations panel named Myanmar’s army chief, Senior Gen. Min Aung Hlaing, last month as one of six top commanders who should stand trial in an international court for genocide and crimes against humanity. The panel’s 444-page report, released on Tuesday, is one of the longest ever produced by a United Nations human rights inquiry. “Any engagement in any form with the Tatmadaw, its current leadership and its businesses is indefensible,” the panel said. “The killing was widespread, systematic and brutal,” the panel said in its report, which was presented Tuesday to the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva. The “Bengali problem” was an “unfinished job,” General Min Aung Hlaing said in a statement at the height of the clearance operations, the panel reported.
