Hlun Htaine police beat a young student and then attempt to loot the shop of his father

RB News 
August 21, 2013 

Maungdaw, Arakan – Three Hlun Htaine police from Pa Yaung Pin Gyi village, Southern Maungdaw Township of Arakan State reportedly beat a young Rohingya student on August 19th during the evening and later attempted to loot his father's shop. 

A young sixth grade Rohingya student named Romaddin, son of Habiran, was on his way home from school in Zaw Matet village on August 19th at 5:25 pm when he was brutally beaten by three Hlun Htaine police at Moe Win check point, next to Pa Yaung Pin Gyi (Don Khali) village. Reportedly, he was beaten for not saluting the police at the check point. The Hlun Htaine police entered into the mosque after beating the boy lobbing accusations that a Bangladesh mobile phone was hidden by someone inside the mosque. They entered into the mosque while still wearing their dirty shoes, a blatant sign of disrespect to the Rohingya inside, who as Muslims believe shoes are never to be worn inside of the mosque. 

“Their [Hlun Htaine police] duty is at check post. There is no reason to salute them by a student or any villager. That was lame excuse to beat a young student. And they entered into the mosque to search for Bangladesh mobile phone, but it was only a baseless accusation. They didn't take off their dirty shoes when they entered into the mosque. That’s an insult to our religion.” a Rohingya told RB News

Later at 8:30 pm the three police tried to loot the shop of the father of young student, Habiran, son of Ismail (39-years-old) in the village. But all the villagers crowded to protect the shop and the police opened fire into crowd. 

“At night they [Hlun Htaine police] tried to loot the shop of the boy's father. We [the villagers] tried to protect the shop, but they opened fire on us. Luckily none of us were injured. Although Nasaka is disbanded the Hlun Htaine are same as the Nasaka. We want to live very peacefully in the village but Nasaka tortured us in the past and now the Hlun Htaine are continuously torturing us. We are facing trouble on a daily basis.” the Rohingya man continued.
