in Maungdaw, Sept 30, 2017

[Kha Maung Seik Village tract contains 5

villages. 2 small villages are Taung Ywa and
Ye Baw Kya Villages which are Hindu.
The other 3 much larger villages are Bengali
Muslim ‘Rohingya’]

I work as a teacher in Nga Yant Chaung Village. Bengali Muslims came to our village on
August 25, two villagers were hacked and severely wounded, but did not die. The
Bengalis blocked our village paths, and all exits. We hide in a house.

Afterwards policemen from Nga Yant Chaung Police Outpost came and rescued us. They
took us to the outpost. We stayed there for 10 days.

The terrorists attacked the police outpost many times, during the day, at night and at
dawn. The security personnel protected us.

The Bengalis burnt everything, including our houses and shops. All I had is only one set
of clothes. I stayed for 10 days with one set of clothes and struggled for food.

After 10 days, soldiers came and took us to the bigger Kha Maung Seik Police Outpost.
So, we stayed there for 10 days, then we arrived here in Buthidaung to the camp.

All the villagers from Kha Maung Seik's Taung Ywa and Ye Baw Kya villages, including old
men, women, and babies were brutally murdered.

The dead bodies of children less then 5 years old had almost disappeared into the soil.
45 bodies were unearthed. Among them, 4 are my relatives. They are my aunt, her
husband, her son and her grandson. The body of a 5 year old baby was found in a box.
I saw these things with my own eyes.

My aunt and her husband were brutally tortured in many ways and also my nephew was
tortured first and killed after the Bengalis broke his legs and hands.

The bodies of other children maybe dead, maybe alive, have not been recovered yet. We
also found 3 or 4 dead bodies from Ye Baw Kya Village.

On August 27, 2017, 7 Hindus - a woman, 3 Men,

and 3 children were killed by Bengalis in Myo Thu
Gyi village near downtown Maungdaw. And, in Zin
Pine Nyar village a Hindu father and his daughter
were abducted. We still have no information about
them, but we believe that they have also been
brutally murdered. Then, in Pa Din Ka Yin Tan
village, one Hindu from a family was abducted, and
that villager is believed be dead, also.

In Kha Maung Seik Village Tract, there are two Hindu Villages named Ye Baw Kya and
Taung Ywa. There were over 120 villagers in two villages. Ye Baw Kya village has a
Hindu Temple. I want the whole world to know the term 'Genocide' does not apply to the
Bengali Muslims, but rightfully for our Hindu people. All the villagers from Ye Baw Kya
and Taung Ywa were slaughtered by the Bengalis. This was massive killing committed by
Muslims. And then, 8 young and pretty Hindu ladies were threatened with death if they
refused to convert to Islam. The very frightened ladies accepted this to save their own
lives, and the terrorists chose each of the ladies for marriage and took them to
Bangladesh.

In Bangladesh, when the Hindu ladies were being interviewed by reporters, a Hindu man
noticed that they were Hindu. He noticed that they were Hindu by seeing the traditional
and cultural things they were wearing. Hindu women wear Red or White bracelets, and
they have a red spot called tikka on their forehead. Hindu men wear bracelets called
rakhid which can bring good luck or good fortune.Then the Hindu man told Gu Ru Gyi - a
Hindu holy man - about this and Gu Ru Gyi informed a Hindu reporter about this
discovery. The reporter urgently went to find the Hindu girls and interview them, and
then get them out of there, because they were not safe.

After that the reporter went there and told them that he was a Hindu, the Hindu ladies
started crying with relief. They said that they were forced by Bengali terrorists to say
their families were killed by Rakhine Buddhists and Army troops. They had to say that
because they are afraid of being killed. The Hindu ladies asked the Hindu reporter to
please save them from the hands of the murderous Bengalis as soon as possible. If not,
they would have to suffer the fate of being Muslim against their will. They were also
forced to eat beef (which Hindus don't eat). Then the reporter told all of this to Gu Ru
Gyi and soon Hindu and Bangladesh authorities saved them. After the ladies were saved,
they gave detailed information to us. Their husbands were beaten by the Muslims with
iron rods, tortured and killed in front of them. Bengalis shouted that Hindus and
Buddhists together conspired against Muslims.

Now Hindus in Bangladesh are in great danger. In the Bangladesh refugee camps, there
are 492 Hindus from Thit Tone Na Kwa Sone Village. There are 8 women and 7 children
from Kha Maung Seik Taung Ywa and Ye Baw Kya Villages. I urgently request the
authorities to save all of them.

We Hindu people are the victims running from the Bengali terrorists to safety among the
Rakhine Buddhist community. We have lost everything, including houses, cows and all
we possess. All we have is our lives and one set of clothes.

The Bengalis have burned our houses and some of their own houses too. We saw this
with our own eyes. We lived with the Rakhine Buddhist community at one corner of the
Ward. Bengalis live in the other three corners. We only have one way to escape. Around
11:30 PM ,on that night of August 25, 2017, the Bengalis started shouting "Islam
Zindabad" (Long Live Islam) so loudly. We realized then that we had to run for our lives
because we understood that they are going to fight and kill all the Buddhists. We first
escaped to downtown Maungdaw and took shelter there. But we felt unsafe there, so
most of us came to Sittwe.

If the Government want to resettle us, we will not live together with these Bengali
Muslims. We request the Government to settle us next to the Buddhist Rakhine
community. We can always live peacefully with them. We can only live far away from
Muslims. This is what I want to say as the leader of all these Hindu victims.

 My name is Chandrwa Maung Hein,
from Kanyin Tan Village,
Padauk Village Tract,
Maungdaw Township,
Rakhine State, Myanmar
Interviewed in Maungdaw refugee camp,
September 30, 2017

My name is Chandrwa Maung Hein and my

fathers name is U Zulanarwa. We lived in Kanyin
Tan Village in Padauk Village Tract in Maungdaw
Township. We lived in several separate houses.
There are seven men, including me, and four
women comprising my family members.

On August 24, 2017, one of my sons went to Maungdaw market with a motorbike to buy
something. As he could not get it there, he went to Thonemiles Village Tract, where
there are two villages of Mro and Thet ethnicities there. There are some small hills
between those two villages. When he arrived there, Bengali Muslim terrorists followed
him and tried to catch him. So, he ran into the forest nearby, according to an
eyewitness. Since that time, I have not had any contact from my son, and still, we
cannot find him.

That same month, on August 27, 2017, Bengali terrorists entered our compound and
attacked my house. There were at least 25 militants and they surrounded all of us.
Among them, there were 7 or 8 Bengalis that rushed inside, holding weapons in their
hands, such as long knives and swords, pistols, small bombs, and heavy wooden sticks.
After bursting in they searched for our phones and grabbed them all. Then, they
arrogantly spoke to me using bad words. They threatened us to cut our heads off if we
did not convert to Islam by the day after tomorrow.

Also, before exiting, they forced us to destroyed our holy Hindu shrine and deities, and
told me not to keep and not to pay homage to our sacred deities. They ordered us to
“destroy immediately. Destroy your pagan shrine and idols immediately and if you
want to live here, you must change your false religious into our superior Islam” is what
they said to me very arrogantly. One of them tried to hit and beat me.They took two
Kyattha [a unit of measurement] of gold and 70,000 Kyats (Myanmar currency) together
with our mobile phones. After that they exited the house.

Of the terrorists who entered my house, among them was a leader of the RSO (Rohingya
Solidarity Organization - terrorist group) among them, named Adu Habist, and the rest
of them are from our village.
