More than 20 Rakhines attacked
some Rohingya fire-woods cutters in a mountain where a Nasaka shot at the
Rohingyas in stead of helping them.
On 4th
Dec 2012, some Rohingyas (fire-wood cutters) hailed from Zin Paing Nya village
tract went to the nearest mountain of Kyee Kan Pyin village tract to cut
fire-woods. After cutting fire-woods, more than 20 Rakhines from the Natala
village of Kyee Kan Pyin village tract attacked on the Rohingyas while the
Rohingyas were drinking water from a stream before their return. When the
Rohingyas shouted for help, a Nasaka from a sentry camp closer to the mountain
came to them and shot his gun at the Rohingyas where a Rohingya called Edris
s/o Yunose Ahmed (38Yr) was shot at his thigh. He is taking medical treatment
in his village.
Most of the
Rohingyas in Maung Daw are poor and are facing many difficulties to serve their
families as the government has blocked every income sources since 8th
June 2012. They have only a source that is fire-woods cutting. Now, Rakhines
are attaking even these firewood collectors and the Naskas are going with
Rakhines shooting their guns at the Rohingyas in stead of helping them.
