Buthidaung, Arakan – A military lieutenant from Regiment 353 based in Buthidaung Township of Arakan State robbed things from a Rohingya house. 

On April 8th at 12 pm, a military Lieutenant from Regiment 353 based in Kyaung Taung village tract in Buthidaung Township entered the house of Idris S/o Abdul Malek located in Taung Badaga hamlet of Badaga village tract. 

At that time Idris wasn’t at home. The Lieutenant pulled out the wife of Idris from the house. Then he took a big solar panel, a battery and some wires then left the house. The Solar panel valued 120,000 kyats and the battery is valued at 25,000 kyats.

Idirs complained about the event to the village administrator once he arrived home. Although he requested the lieutenant to give back his things through the village administrator, the lieutenant responded that he would be hardly beaten if asked again for his things to be returned.
