40 Beautiful Rohingyas

However, this is not the first report of massacres of Rohingya.
There are witness accounts of Rohingya being taken prisoner and
used in human trafficking, being tortured to death in various ways, of
bodies being taken out into the jungle in lorries and being cut into
pieces and buried in pits, of women being raped and having their

breasts cut off before they are killed.

The Muslim Rohingya people are in desperate straits, the
UN should take immediate actions

The Rohingya people are in a state of fear yet there is nothing
they can do to protect themselves. They have no organization to shel-
ter them and no citizenship or legal rights. They lack the slightest
technological means by which to make their voices heard to the
world.

The Myanmar government, on the other hand, denied all these

reports when U.N. Human Rights Special rapporteur Tomas Ojea
Quintana asked for an investigation into them, and said that no
Rohingya people have died, apart from a police officer. Hla Maung
Tin, Prime Minister of the Province of Rakhine, instead accused the
world media of waging a "smear campaign." Of course, we must not
forget here that since the Rohingya are not regarded as citizens, they

have no identity documents; therefore, if they die or disappear there
are no official records to prove their existence of otherwise. So if the
allegations are true, witness statements and the presence of corpses
are the main evidence that can confirm the incidents. It is reported,

however, that officials have covered up the evidence of the slaughter
as quickly as possible, for which reason the world is unaware of that
evidence of the massacres.
