[Al Jazeera] Dozens of Rohingya are being deported from Soddy Arabia...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
to Bangladesh, despite being from neighbouring Myanmar.
In video footage sent to Middle East Eye wesbite on Sunday, men are seen lined up for deportation at the Shumaisi detention centre in Jeddah.
Some Rohingya were also put in handcuffs after they attempted to resist their deportation to Bangladesh, according to voice notes sent to MEE.
The Rohingya man who filmed the footage said that the men who have been locked up in a Saudi detention centre for up to six years were being deported.
"I've been here for the last five to six years, now they are sending me to Bangladesh. Please pray for me," the man in the video said.
Another recording sent to MEE recounted the events that led up to Sunday's forcible removal.
"They came to our cells in the middle of the night at 12pm, telling us to pack our bags and get ready for Bangladesh," a Rohingya detainee, who wished to remain anonymous, told MEE.
"Now I am in handcuffs and being taken to a country I'm not from - I am Rohingya, not Bangladeshi."
