In August 2017, Myanmar security forces advanced upon the village of Kiari Prang (Kyet Yoe Pyin), located in Maungdaw, Rakhine State. Prior to that, in October-November 2016, 200-350 assailants from the Myanmar military and Border Guard Police (BGP), as well as Rakhine civilians, besieged Kiari Prang from their deployment stations at the BGP camp and at a school. They killed and injured the Rohingya with gunfire. Security forces unlawfully arrested villagers, burned down their homes, and looted their property. The military raped Rohingya women.
Asian Dignity Initiative carried out in-depth interviews with selected victim-survivors living in refugee camps in Bangladesh. The purpose of this report is to advance truth-seeking in order to support and aid the Rohingya victims of mass-scale violence, as well as to promote and actualize transitional and transformative justice. In addition, a criminal trial to hold perpetrators responsible for their horrific actions will ultimately require the submission of relevant evidence to the tribunal(s).
In this report, Asian Dignity Initiative sought to explain how the Rohingya suffered from systematic destruction between 2012-2016, as well as to demonstrate that the massacre committed October-November 2016 in the village of Kiari Prang followed the pattern of genocide and ethnic cleansing. Therefore, our view is that the international community needs to actively intervene and take steps to address the situation.
