43 Commission that the traffickers moved the bodies of victims away from the camp to areas unknown to him.113 Likewise, witnesses in the mass human-trafficking trial in Thailand testified that people in the camps died daily and camp guards would take the dead bodies outside of the camps.114 “Ebadullah,” 25, who spend three months in a human-trafficking camp on the Malaysia-Thailand border in 2014, described seeing many people die in captivity in the camps: Approximately 200 people died during my stay. One night, beside me, five people died. How many days can someone stay in a squatting position without enough food? Because of this, people were dying. We prayed over the dead bodies, and then the bodies were carried to a car, and we don’t know where they went. On one night, five died. On another night, seven died and so on . . . There were 400 in my group at sea. There were many more people in the camp [onshore] and more just kept coming and coming.115 A Rohingya woman, 20, from Sittwe Township in Rakhine State, Myanmar, who spent four months in a human-trafficking camp in Thailand from May to September 2014, told Fortify Rights about children dying in the camps: I saw six men and two children die in the camp. One child was five-years old and another was three-years old. Before they died, their bodies swelled up. Some of the children were sick and coughing with a fever. They would stop eating and get swollen.116 “Begum B.,” 50, spent 45 days in a primitive human-trafficking camp and described to Fortify Rights how traffickers killed one boy. She said: The camp was made of canvas. There was only a roof. [The traffickers] beat us every day and treated us very bad. One boy was injured, and they killed him with poison. He was sick and not dying. [The traffickers] brought him a bottle filled with some kind of syrup, and he drank it and then suddenly vomited and then died.117 “Anuya” 19, and her husband spent less than one week in a human-trafficking camp in Thailand but reported witnessing several deaths of captives in the camps. She said: We were not given enough food or water, and some people were sick. They were coughing and vomiting and had diarrhea. We only stayed in the camp for five days, but during our time there, I saw at least nine people die. All of the people who died were Rohingya men. They swelled up and died.118 “Noor Begum,” a 20-year-old Rohingya woman who fled avoidable deprivations of food and shelter in Myanmar, reported many deaths in the human-trafficking camp where traffickers held her for two-months on the Malaysia-Thailand border: I saw many people die [in the camp] . . . About 20 percent of the people from the camp were dead. Sometimes, five and sometimes six died at a time. There were almost 2,000 people there when we first arrived . . . [The dallals] treated the men very bad. They beat them . . . and they provided only a little food. Another cause of death was diarrhea and dysentery. 113 Ibid. 114 Fortify Rights, internal report on human trafficking case, trial monitoring notes, Rachada Criminal Court, Human Trafficking Division, Bangkok, Thailand, May 12, 2016.
