However those working on the ground -- speaking anonymously to avoid a government backlash -- say the displaced are being forcibly returned. Most people however had just disappeared once again into a fatigued host community and were living in utter "misery".

The clashes led to the world's largest displacement crisis, with over a million mostly ethnic Gedeos displaced, according to government figures.
