Rohingyas abandon village

The Rohingya youth are forced to abandon their home and livelihood and seek shelter in the Kutupalong refugee camp. Kutupalong, Bangladesh, 21.02.17 . The Rohingya Muslim refugees of Bangladesh are originally inhabitants of the Arakan province of Myanmar. However, when citizenship of Myanmar was denied in the 1990s, and torture by military and Buddhist extremist forces increased, the community was forced to take refuge in the makeshift camps of Bangladesh. More than a million Rohingyas are today living without basic amenities in the Government camps like Kutupalong. The future is equally stark as the Bangladesh Govt plans to relocate the people to distant islands of Thengar Char, where even communication is yet to be developed. Such appalling is the condition that the UN claims the Rohingyas to be one of the most persecuted communities in the world. (Photo by Sushavan Nandy/NurPhoto via Getty Images)

Rohingya Muslims cleared out of Fundu parang, Buthidaung as census officials along with police and BGP came to their village, according to our local correspondent.

In Arakan, security forces always accompany census officials but the murder of a 14 year old girl in Rathidaung a day earlier had scared the locals in the area. A 14 year girl was killed by BGP during census.

Earlier police had informed locals to come to the school field for the census on Wednesday. When no one showed up, police went from house to house looking for residents but found everything abandoned.

The locals are currently hiding in the hills.

Police said that Muslim leaders based in Rangoon had convinced the villagers to flee from the census.
