Rights activists in Indian-administered territory of Jammu and Kashmir are calling for an independent investigation into the two-year detention of Rohingya refugees who fled the military crackdown in Myanmar.
A five-month-old girl has died after Indian forces fired teargas at Rohingya refugees trying to escape a detention centre where they have been held for more than two years.
Some of the detainees at the centre have been on hunger strike since April over their detention.
The government there says the refugees have been living in the area illegally.
