Sittwe, Arakan- This afternoon, around
200 Rakhine extremists surrounded Aung Mingalar Quarter trying to attack
Rohingyas in the area and torch their houses as if making them (Rohingyas) die
with starvation by cutting their ways of access to foods and medicines and
pressuring them to leave their houses are not enough and satisfactory( for Rakhine
Extremists). There were no security forces in placed to protect Rohingyas’
lives.
“There were around 3000 Rakhines together with extremist
Rakhine Monks with Lethal weapons gathered and surrounded Rohingyas’ areas for
hours in an attempt to recreate violence against the already crippled Rohingya
community in Sittwe. They demanded all Rohingyas to come out of their houses;
otherwise they would kill each and every Rohingya in the area. They have been
plotting to kill remaining Rohingyas for a few days.
Some of villages surrounded by the Rakhine extremists
with their Monks are:
1) Hoshai
Para
2) Mowlake
(Moulvi Para)
3) Aung
Mingalar (Handi Hola, Amla Para)
Rakhine Extremist Mobs started gathering this afternoon
at Uttama Park. Despite presence of authority in the area,
Rakhine Mob could proceed with hand-made guns and knives etc and surround the
remaining Rohingya areas in the town of Sittwe.
Fortunately for Rohingyas this time, Military took action rather quickly to
prevent the attacks of Rakhine extremists. Military in the area declared “we
have got the shooting order and will shoot at anyone no matter which party
start the violence” said Maung Oo from Sittwe. Therefore, Rakhines could not
proceed and their plot to kill Rohingyas in Sittwe failed according to the
latest report. However, Rakhine extremists did smash some military trucks.
“Later, when asked by the authority why they wanted to
create the violence again, the Monks vehemently replied “we wanted to kill them
because a 14-year-old Rakhine boy was missing and he was killed by those
Bengali Kulars.” Yet, when authority investigated about the boy, he was found
sleeping in his house” reported by a local of Aung Mingalar Quarter on the
condition of anonymity.
Maung Daw,
Arakan- This morning, a Rohingya from
Bomu Para was severely Rakhine hooligans without any reason.
“This afternoon in Maung Daw, too, Rakhine Extremists
were entering Rohingyas areas in the downtown region such as Quarter 3, Quarter
4, Quarter 5 and Dil Para with Knives, hand-made guns and other guns provided
by the authority. Besides, some Rakhine hooligans were seen roaming around
Quarter 2 in Maung Daw. Rakhines along with NaSaKa were shouting slogans
against Rohingyas in Maung Daw. In Maung Daw as well, the military took similar
action as they did in Sittwe. But it was very difficult for the military to
control the situation. So far, no burning or dead casualties are recorded yet”
reported A. Faiz from Maung Daw.
The new attempt to commit genocide against Rohingyas is
the direct result of the recent conference held by Rakhine extremists in Rathedaung.
It is also an attempt by Rakhine extremists to kill Rohingyas as many as
possible in the time they have because as they are losing the debate going on
in Nay Pyi Daw regarding the history of Arakan. It is also because they can’t
fool people any longer with their made-up stories of Arakan.
I suspect whether it is another attempt by Rakhine extremists
to extend the period of Martial Law declared in the region similar to what they
did last time by targeting Rohingyas in Kyauk Taw township!
