Local Hindus and the Myanmar government in late September said that ARSA militants detained nearly 100 people from several Hindu villages in the Kha Maung Seik village tract the same day, killed most of them, and dumped their corpses in mass graves.
The militants also forced some of the young Hindu women to convert to Islam and took them to a Muslim refugee camp in neighboring Bangladesh.
Myanmar security forces found the mass graves on Sept. 24 and 25. Fifty-two Hindus were killed, and 192 others are still missing.
The eight Hindu women who witnessed the killings of residents of Yebaw Kya village returned to Myanmar with a police escort following a Myanmar government demand and the countryâs de facto leader Aung San Suu Kyiâs instruction to bring them back, said a statement issued by the State Counselorâs Office.
Myanmarâs official account of the incident could not be independently confirmed, and the government has not allowed outside observers or media close, unfettered access to the conflict zone.
The eight women, who range in age from 15 to 25, told authorities that a group of about 500 Muslims militants led by a foreigner dressed in black and a local named Noru Lauk from Khamaungseik village entered their homes at about 8 a.m. on Aug. 25. They took their belongings, including their jewelry and mobile phones.
According to the women, the militants said, âThis is not your village. It is our territory. We are the sole owners of this land. You are all the same as the Myanmar Armed Forces and police members. We will murder Buddhists and all of you who worship the statues made of bricks and stones.â
The militants then divided the villagers into two groups according to gender, tied their hands, and took them to Bawtala village, the women said, according to the governmentâs statement.
They slashed the throats of the men, sliced up their bodies, and threw them in nearby pits, the women said.
The ARSA attack and subsequent crackdown by the Myanmar military prompted about 30,000 Hindus and other non-Muslims living in northern Rakhine to flee south to Mrauk U, Sittwe, Kyauktaw, and Minbya, while more than 500,000 Rohingya Muslims fled to Bangladesh, the statement said.
Converted to Islam
The Hindu women also said that the lives of eight girls and women were spared because the militants considered them beautiful and decided to convert them to Islam.
In the presence of the eight young women who were spared, ARSA militants killed Hindus from Yebaw Kya village, they said. A group of eight Hindu females and their children from the village were then taken to a cow ranch near Bawtalar village where they were killed.
A three-year-old boy named Phawlar, who was included in the group, saw the militants slash his fatherâs throat before he was killed, they said. Local Muslims, whose names they recalled, guarded some other Hindu girls and children, while others left to set fire to police camps.
After some of the militants returned, they took the eight Hindu women and young children to a house in Bawtalar village and forced them to eat rice and meat, the latter of which their religion prohibits them from consuming, the women said.
The militants also instructed them about the lifestyle and behavior of Muslim women before taking them to the Bangladesh border on Aug. 27, where they passed through cut barbed wire and spent the night on a hill so they would not be detected by Bangladeshi border guards.
Early on Aug. 28, the group crossed the border into Bangladesh and were taken by car to Kutuparlaung refugee camp where they were housed with Muslims and forced to wear burqas, the women said....

LOL I've shown the barbarism of Islam in this thread and the other side of the story you try not to get into.Maybe now we will actually be allowed to discuss the topic of the OP!Looks like Coyote will not be back on this thread.
Well Iâve just re read the article linked to in the OP, but it seems to be a case of a few ârohingyaâ/illegal immigrants saying his cow was stolen, another was prevented from going to his rice field etc. This isnât really evidence of systematic starvation of the ârohingyaâ, and I havenât been able to find any, although I havenât looked very recently.
We've been discussing the topic in the OP. It's a pity some here need to turn it into an anti-muslim hatefest isn't it?
Almost 150,000 Rohingya children in urgent need of supplementary food to stave off or treat malnutrition | Save the Children International
Save the Children is warning of a malnutrition crisis in the Bangladeshi district of Coxâs Bazar, where more than half a million Rohingya have arrived in the past six weeks after fleeing horrific violence and bloodshed over the border in Myanmar.
An estimated 281,000 newly arrived Rohingya are in need of urgent nutrition support to prevent or treat malnutrition, according to new data from the Inter-Sector Coordination Group, including 145,000 children under the age of five and more than 50,000 pregnant and breastfeeding women.
At least 14,000 newly arrived Rohingya children under five are already believed to be suffering from severe acute malnutrition.
âWeâre seeing an alarming number of children arriving in Bangladesh desperately hungry and malnourished after fleeing their homes in Myanmarâs northern Rakhine State. Then they are exposed to grim living conditions in camps where they donât have good hygiene, where there is dirty, contaminated water everywhere and where they have no choice but to rely on food rations to survive,â said the Director of Save the Childrenâs Emergency Health Unit, Dr Unni Krishnan.
âNot only does this exacerbate their nutritional status, but it puts them at a far greater risk of contracting a water-borne disease like cholera, which, for children like this could easily be fatal. We know that in these conditions, the risk of a major outbreak of disease is very real.
âIn over 20 years as a humanitarian worker Iâve never seen a situation like this, where people are so desperate for basic assistance and conditions so dire. Iâm extremely concerned about the health of the youngest Rohingya children, who are facing a frightening reality that no child should have to endure.â
Bye.............PRAVDA ARTIST.................You don't have a clue..........You only have an Agenda............Consensus of some on this thread: genocide is acceptable if the target is Muslim. Your excuses and words speak for themselves over and over.
Decapitating children, throwing infants into fires, gang rape, shooting people in the back and burning alive in houses is just part of a âget outâ campaign.
I have never heard of anything so crazy. In the Rwandan genocide, in the Bosnian genocide they could leave. In fact in most they were allowed to leave but there was usually no place to go. Does fleeing extermination somehow make it not genocidal. Even the Jews could leave in the beginning but people turned them away.
I donât know what world you inhabit but it is one I want no part of.
Good day
