But, Nasaka forced the Rohingya villagers to sign in a computerized document to confess as Bengali in place of Rohingya.”
Therefore; Rohingya villagers were not willing to take part in the census – computerized photograph and signature with complete data - taking by Nasaka and immigration. The Rohingya fled from their villages to avoid harassment by the security forces, according to a businessman from the locality.
As a result, Nasaka personnel picked up five villagers including three women from Wabeg village, dragging them into a river and put their heads under water till they became senseless. Of them, one woman has a three-month-old baby. At present, the baby is serious position. They are very poor villagers with fasting.
