Maung Daw, Arakan: Today, at 10:30PM (Myanmar Standard Time), around 15 Rakhine Extremists from the downtown of Maung Daw came to the Village of Baggona together with a few Police officers and threw two corpses of Rakhines away at the Baazar of Bagonna. The two corpses were brought by themselves. And so, they are trying to create violence against Rohingya villagers again and destabilize the village by such brainless and malicious attempts.
“We have heard that the villagers informed the NaSaKa officer responsible for the security of the region, Captain Myo Htaik Aung, the head of the Maggyi NaSaKa Camp of the NaSaKa Area No.7. According to the villagers, he came to the place of incident and said that he will try to sort it out the soonest possible and make the situation peaceful. He also said that he came to know that the corpses had been brought by the Rakhine extremists. But the villagers are really afraid.
The Rakhine extremists are still at the place in Baggona and trying to create troubles for Rohingya villagers. These Rakhine extremists and Police in Maung Daw (Note: most of the Police officers in Maung Daw are Rakhine themselves.) do not want to see the village as well as the whole Arakan stabilized and peaceful. That’s why they are creating troubles for Rohingyas and treating the corpses of their own people like animals. They are being cooperated by the newly selected administrator of the village, Ba’ Tuan Aung. He is Bangladeshi Rakhine who settled in Kantayar village in 1970s” said a Rohingya Elder from a nearby village.
It has been several times that Rakhine extremists have attempted to instigate violence whenever the situation in Arakan anywhere seemed peaceful. There is a reason for it. The reason is they want to have to an independent and exclusive Rakhine nation out of Myanmar. The more Arakan destabilizes the easier their tasks.

"Mistake Correction: It was only one corpse, not two. It was a reporting mistake. Our apologies for that.
Update: The Rakhine man, whose corpse was used by other Rakhine extremists as a tool to trigger violence, was died in hospital because of disease. Rakhine extremists insulted his dead body by using it for a crime.
Rakhine extremists could not achieve what they had expected as the NaSaKa Captain Myo Htaik Aung was able to take in-time action."
