Collaborators making difficulty the village situation

Molana Jamal son of Moonsur  (ex-police) and son in law of Abul ( ex- clerk  of Cooperative shop) of Shwezarr village  is informing to authority against Rohingya from Shwezarr. Yesterday authority 10 Rohingya elders from Shwezarr where   Nur Kamal son of Syed Amin was arrested by authority and others flee for fear of arrest. Jamal is informing to the local Burma border security force (Nasaka)  since last 7 year  to harass the villagers, according to an elder from Maungdaw. “we don’t know  many people are in the list which  Jamal gave to authority.”

The Burmese authority is using a new tactic which made Maungdaw town upside down – younger male and leading  village elders  were arrested   with lists where they authority said they have photo who create the problem. But, acutely the photos were from family photograph which Nasaka yearly took as a family list checking project and the collaborators also supporting the authority to harass the Rohingya people. So, the Rohingya again start to flee to Bangladesh by small boats – only able to board 10-13 people-  as the Rohingya are fleeing for fear of arrest as Burmese armies are picking up Rohingya young people village by village with their so called list, according to a young Rohingya from Maungdaw. “The authority now picked up those who is like smart or worked before any organization, educated person.”
