Abstract
- UNHCR (2003) 'Guidelines on International Protection: Cessation of Refugee Status under Article 1C(5) and (6) of the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees (the "Ceased Circumstances" Clauses)' www.refworld.org/docid/3e50de6b4.html 2. 41 FMR 62 Return October 2019 www.fmreview.org/return A premature attempt at cessation Hamsa Vijayaraghavan and Pallavi Saxena There are many lessons to be learned from UNHCR's controversial - and ultimately reversed - decision to end refugee status for Burmese Chins in India and Malaysia. Moreover, notification interviews (in which refugees were asked to indicate whether they would accept or challenge the decision to cease their refugee status) had already commenced, and the outcome of any go-andsee visit could not have been made available to refugees in time to inform their decision.
