The Charity Commission has opened a statutory inquiry into a charitable fund for Rohingya refugees, which never registered as a charity, after concerns about how it was operating, and whether trustees had put charitable funds at risk

The fund is not a registered charity but as it raised money for charitable purposes to help Rohingya refugees who had fled violence in Myanmar, it falls within the Commission’s jurisdiction.
