The junta accused Jamaat of seeking political leverage through ties with China\u2019s Communist Party (CPC), referencing a meeting between the two parties in Dhaka on April 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jamaat later clarified it advocated for “dignified repatriation” and a “secure zone” in Rakhine for Rohingya refugees, not full independence. Deputy chief Syed Abdullah Mohammad Taher emphasized China\u2019s potential mediation role due to its Myanmar ties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
