"Ongoing ethnic-cleansing pogrom against defenceless unarmed Rohingya"
in Arakan state of western Burma ( 8 June - 1 July 2012 )
“Please raise voices to save Rohingya human beings: International intervention is only option"
The government authorities do not installed Law and Order for Rakhine
people who are openly doing crimes. A few Rakhines those arrested from
Sittwe, Kyauktaw and Maungdaw were also released after days. Beside,
police authority are arresting Rohingya elders and youths from every
village of Sittwe, Maungdaw, Rathedaung and Kyauktaw townships and
framing them with false charges.
Government doesn't bother with the call of UN therefore Rohingya people
are continued to face tyrant attacks of Rakhines and arbitrary abuses of
local authorities. While there is ongoing heavy raining and flooding,
it is more than two weeks now they are confined by military guards
without supply of food and medicine. Rohingyans are ending-up between
gun-fires of security forces and lethal knives of Rakhine people. This
time they can't escape because security forces rounded up all the way
out, those hiding in remote areas were also attacked by Rakhines and
security forces and navy forces are patrolling across the beach and
eliminating them.
We also heard about aid contribution. However, all aid supplies are
reached to government designated relief centres where authority places
perpetrator Rakhine family members only. It is more than two weeks now
Rohingya people in all areas including homeless people are seriously and
painfully suffering from starvation. Rohingyans need immediate supply
of foods, clothes, medicines and shelters. Because, the restriction is
still imposed on Rohingya people who are dying of hunger, lack of
medical care, shelters and clothing.
Well planned genocide by Rakhines cooperatively with local armed forces. From the beginning, Curfew and Order are restored only for Rohingya and confined within their homes. While Rakhines are openly allowed to trespass and attack Rohingya villages. Local security forces who are also Rakhine are sided with Rakhine people and explored more brutal crimes that include shooting fires into the houses and letting its partisan Rakhines to torch fire. Again, Rohingyans those came out from homes were brutally beaten and slaughtered and those fleeing were shot fires regardless of women or children. Plus, sexual abuses, looting goods and cash. In this manner, up to today from 8 June, the death toll of Rohingya exceeds more than 10,000 from Sittwe alone and a few thousands covering from Maungdaw, Rathedaung and Kyauktaw townships. Most of them were shot dead, brutally beaten to death, burnt alive and killings of thousands of the rest of those taken away by security forces into hidden areas. At least, 25,000 of Rohingya houses were burnt down and more than 100,000 are homeless in all over Arakan state.
