Maungdaw,
Arakan State: Commander
of Security Force (Hlun Htein) of Region 7 Camp based at the village of Alay
Than Kyaw (HaishshuRata) in southern Maungdaw summoned administrators of
Rohingya villages and Rohingya community leaders in the region for a meeting on
11th May 2014. In the meeting, he said they (Security Force)
would impose NaSaKa style rules and regulations on Rohingya community again.

replaced by Hlun Htein (Security Force) after it had been disbanded.
Hlun
Htein Commander of Region 7 Camp based in the village of Alay Than Kyaw

community elders for a meeting on 11th May 2014. In the
meeting, he stated they would re-implement mechanism against Rohingyas brought
into practice by their predecessors, NaSaKa. Therefore, Rohingyas need to apply
to Hlun Htein for:
1)
Marriage Permission (a prolonged process that used to take Rohingyas one to two
years and cost them more than 200,000 Kyats for a single permission on top of
harassments)
2)
Permission for Construction and Repairment of Homes and Tents
3)
Permission for ownership of properties and live-stocks such chickens, goats,
cattle etc
4)
Permissions for Fishing in the sea and the river
5)
Permission to own Mobile Phones etc.
Besides,
he ordered the village administrators to report to him on daily basis ‘if
anyone does anything mentioned above without his permission.’ He also mentioned
that they would, by any time, raid Rohingya villages and punish anyone that did
anything without their permission” said a local Rohingya on the condition of
anonymity.
