In August 2017, Myanmar security forces advanced upon the village of Naasha Puru (Ngar Sar Kyu), located in Maungdaw, Rakhine State. Prior to that, in October 2016, 100-300 assailants from the Myanmar military, as well as Rakhine civilians, besieged the village from their deployment station at the village 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 in October 2016 in the village of Naasha Puru 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.
