APACHE JUNCTION AZ [IFS] --The International Criminal Court (ICC) has pledged to speed up efforts to launch a probe into the widely reported atrocities committed by Myanmar's military and radical Buddhist mobs against hundreds of thousands of the country's minority Rohingya Muslims.

ICC's Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan made the remarks on Friday after meeting survivors of the genocide in Bangladesh since arriving in capital Dhaka on Tuesday for a four-day visit aimed at hearing testimonies of those affected by the extreme violence -- including systemic murders, torture, gang rape, arson, forced deportation and ethnic cleansing, among other forms of mass persecution -- as part of the proceedings of a legal case against Myanmar's junta leaders.
