Rohingya refugees turn down second Myanmar repatriation effort
Bangladeshi official says potential returnees fear for their safety in Rakhine state

The Myanmar government had approved more than 3,000 Rohingya to be brought back to the country beginning on Thursday but, as during the first repatriation attempt in November, no refugees agreed to voluntarily board the buses to Myanmar.
