Number of Rohingyas Killed and Four Villages Burned in Kyauktaw Yesterday

Four Rohingya villages were burned by Rakhine extremists down as the violence against Rohingyas resurfaced in Kyauktaw yesterday. “Details about the burned villages and some Rohingyas killed are given below.

The 12-year-old under-aged girl, Noorjanat D/o Shwe Hla, from Apauk village was slaughtered like an animal by Rakhine Inhumane Hooligans using sharp knives. The rest of the people from the village were killed using spears and bayonets simultaneously setting fire to their houses. Some people who could escape the carnage of Rakhines took shelter at a graveyard near to Kaladan River. Some people had to dive into Kaladan to escape the massacres of Rakhines. 

The concerned villagers informed the authorities in advance about the threats and attacks of Rakhine extremists. In Kyawk Taw, there were at least 23 Rohingya villages. There were a few Rohingyas’ villages burned in Kyawk Taw by Rakhine extremists earlier. And there was a temporary calmness after the visit of domestic officials to the affected areas. But this time, it is a deliberate attempt to cleanse Rohingyas and they are committing genocides ignoring International calls to stop the violence against them and Rohingyas’ outcry. Coincidentally, this time, it is happening after the visit of Vice-President Dr. Sai Maung Kham and the press release of Mr. Tomas Ojea Quintana. 

The worst thing is that a website, namely, “drlunswe.blogger.com” is spreading the news which is contrary to the reality on the ground. It is propagating that Rohingyas are burning Rakhines’ villages to further instigate violence all over the country. In short, they are portraying mass murderer criminals as victims and the real victims as criminals. Please save Rohingyas from the hands of evils before they are exterminated” Myo Thant from Buthidaung cried out. 

As of today, ”other two villages, namely Ambaari and Haair Para, in Kyawk Taw were burned again. And hundreds of Rohingyas composed of old people and children were massacred. Military and Hluntin (Security Guards) themselves are cooperating with Rakhine murderers in torching Rohingyas’ villages using Fire-Bombs with their guns. At the same time, they blocked all the exits and escape paths so that no Rohingya can go out of burning houses. As a result of this merciless and heartless deed, hundreds of Rohingyas’ children, elderly people, disabled people and who could not go out of their villages were burned alive. Therefore, exact number of Rohingyas killed cannot be confirmed yet” Maung Maung reported from Buthidaung. 

Elsewhere “in Quarter 1 and Quarter 2 of Maung Daw, Police and other departments, in the name guest-list checking or census check, are looting Rohingyas’ properties, gang-raping their girls now and at this moment time” Rahim from Maung Daw reporting. Therefore, on behalf of all Rohingyas who are, living under severe persecutions, being massacred and whose under-aged girls are being raped and properties are being looted, we would like to plead International Community and the people who care about humanity to not let Rohingyas face the same fate of Jews at the hands of Nazi Germans and Bosnians at the hands of Serbians and save them from Neo-Nazi Racist Section of Rakhine Society and fascist Burmese regime before it is too late.
