Daily Cruelty upon Rohingya in Arakan , Burma
(A) Continuation of Extortion by Nasaka upon Rohingya Community
On 3rd October, 2012, a Rohingya, U Farooq (F) U Kasim from Nayr Bil, Maungdaw North, was invited for a dinner by one of his relatives very near to his own home. After dinner, when he was having a conversation with the family of the relative, a group of Nasaka personnel, sent by Nasaka Sector (5) Commander Win Hlaing, entered the house mentioned above. The visitor was immediately arrested showing no reason and taken outside the compound. Eventually, the victim had to give Two Hundred Thousand Kyats to the Nasaka for release. This is a normal phenomenon applied by the Nasaka to extort money from Rohingya community.
(B) Arbitrary Accusation on Rohingya
On 7th October, 2012, at 01:00am, Sit Oo Zi, Htun Htun Naing and 8 more Nasaka personnel from Nasaka Sector (5)-Nga Khu Yah, raided a house owned by U Noor Mohammed (F) U Zahid Husson from Oo Kyein Kya (Bura Shiddah Fara), Maungdaw north, in search of mobile. Till 02:30am, they searched the house ins and outs and even they excavated the house compound. Finally, they found a cable of MP3 charger. Listening to MP3 and such other entertaining apparatuses are the only way of recreation for discriminated Rohingyas in Myanmar. Moreover, all sorts of chargers and cables are officially legal and widely sold in all most every electronic shop. Awful to hear that, one of the brothers of the raided house owner was arrested for this legal charger. The arrestee was identified as: Shorit Ullah (F) U Zahid Hussain. The Nasaka personnel brought him to Sector (5) Base and the arrestee is still under arrest. The Sector Commander is demanding Five Hundred Thousand Kyats from the arrestee for release. The family is so poor that they are not in a position to enable the demand.
Similar cases occurred in the same village on the same night by the same Nasaka Personnel with different villagers with fabricated reasons. At around 2:45am, a house owned by Shofi Ullah (F) ? was raided. The house owner is a fisherman. During the raid, other two fishermen from nearby were found at his house sleeping overnight by informing the Village Administrator. Unfortunate to them was that the Village Administrator did not give them the official document for the overnight sleeping. When the victims could not provide the Nasaka the documents for overnight sleeping, they were arrested and brought to Sector (5) Base. Still the arrestees are under arrest. The Sector Commander is demanding Five Hundred Thousand Kyats from each miserable arrestee. So far, nobody knows about their fate if they cannot fulfill the demand.
(C) Even No Burial Right for Rohingya killed by Nasaka
On 5th October, 2012, at 05:00pm, Arman Ullah (F) U Abdu Roshid from Gawdu Tha Yah, Maungdaw south, was arrested on the way back to his village from Ka Nyin Tan market, by the Nasaka Camp of Pan Daw Pyin (Nawl Bawn Nya) bridge near Maungdaw downtown. The arrestee was murdered and the corpse was thrown in the creek near the camp. The corpse has been floating in the stream till 7th October, 2012. Although some villagers have seen the corpse, no one dares to bring and bury the corpse since the murder case was committed by the Nasaka.
