One of the Chagos Islands, Diego Garcia , as seen from space

Britain accused was "not to allow crimes against humanity" for the refusal of the people to return to their former homes on the Chagos Islands, despite a decision earlier this year by the United Nation's highest court.

description the UK's behaviour as stubborn and embarrassing, the Prime Minister of Mauritius, Pravind Jugnauth , told the BBC That he is exploring the possibility of charges of crimes against humanity against individual British officials to The International criminal court (ICC).

"It is a violation of the fundamental principle of Human Rights . I don't understand why the UK, this government is so stubborn," said Mr Jugnauth.

the Elderly Chagossians live in Mauritius, have to echo That criticism and accused the United Kingdom, intentionally drag its heels on the Question in The Hope That the community will simply die out.

Earlier this year, Mauritius won a great victory against England, as The International court of justice (ICJ) in The Hague ruled in an Advisory opinion, That the Chagos Islands to be handed over to Mauritius to complete his "decolonisation. "

The General Assembly of the United Nations then voted to give the UK a deadline of six months, you start this process. The United Kingdom has.

It's a half-a-century since great Britain the control of the Chagos Islands from its colony of Mauritius, took over sold and the entire population of More Than 1,000 people, the way for an American military base - part of a secret deal is behind Mauritius, as it was seeking to position of independence from great Britain.

"the UK has to admit, for years, for the respect of the rule of law, respect for International Law ... but it is a pity That the UK act in a Fair and appropriate and in accordance with International Law on the issue of the Chagos Archipelago ," said Mr Jugnauth.

Philippe Sands , a lawyer of the Mauritian government, said: "the UK is found on The Edge of itself as a pariah state.

"We now have a situation in which the Chagossians deported a population, want to go back to and have a right to go again. And the UK is to prevent you go back.

"Question - is it A Crime against humanity? My answer is That , well, it is. "

the UK will continue to insist That the ICJ judgment is not wrong. But it has apologised for its past treatment of the Chagossians, and promised the Islands to Mauritius when they are no longer needed for security purposes.

In a statement, Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO), told the BBC: "The defense facilities, the help on The British Indian Ocean territory, protect the people in the UK and around The World of terrorist threats and piracy.

"We stand by our commitment to the cession of the sovereignty over The Territory to Mauritius when it is no longer required for defense purposes. "

The German cartel office said the UK had committed More Than £40m to improve the livelihood of Chagossians living in Mauritius, the Seychelles and the United Kingdom.

the UK has also begun to be visited by small groups of Chagossians to return to the archipelago for the short "heritage".

But in Mauritius, these tours have been condemned as a clumsy attempt to "divide and conquer" the Chagos community.

"I'm boycotting these trips. The British are trying to buy our silence. This is why we say That our dignity is not for sale," said Olivier Bancoult, the heads of the Chagos group of refugees.

The inscription on the tombstone of a Chagossian in Port Louis, reads: "Diego, my country. I would have loved to have finished My Life there. "

in a cemetery in the Mauritius capital of Port Louis, the marked graves of several of the Chagossians, with tombstones, the grief of her failure to return to the Islands.

"I'm afraid my wish will not come true before I die - my home again", reads Bancoult, The Script next to The Grave of Mr Bancoult's mother, Marie Rita elysée.

"Every Day , to die one after the other, we are. I think The British are waiting for us to die, so there will be No One to claim the Islands," said Liseby Elyse, 66, the was the 20, as they left the archipelago.

"We are like birds That fly over The Ocean , and we have nowhere to land. We must continue to fly until we die," said the 81-year-old Samynaden Rosemond.
