On the Wednesday morning of 17 Oct, the Rohingya villagers of Anauk Pran (Anakpran), Rathedaung township were invited to the Town Peace and Development Council-TPDC office for food distribution that was came after the British Ambassador Andrew Heyn who is the first diplomat visited this region.
On their arrival at the office, all of the villagers involving women and children were humiliated and beaten-up. 11 of them were harshly wounded and all of them were finally drove away from the office except some women and girls have been selectively kept in the office and taken to authorities' homes. They still face molestation plus sexual abuses by authorities.

 Moreover, the Rakhines and its monks have begun aggressively blocking and checking all suspected vehicles and then took away the foods that are carrying for Rohingyas. This kind of actions are taking place mostly in Sittwe town since the government has announced its official rejection of the OIC office opening on 15 Oct in regard to maintain the military guide democracy placates the extremist Rakhines and radical monks striking began across Yagoon, Mandalay and Arakan.
It is a draconian plan to eliminate the entire Rohingya, Kaman and Rakhine muslims from starvation. The displaced numbered about 150,000 people across eight different towns- Sittwe, Maungdaw, Rathedaung, Kyauktaw, Pauktaw, Rambre, Myebon, Ponnagyuan- and the rest of the people who are also trapped, have been passing in critical condition.
UN and its member countries have ever failed to enhance the military government to abide by intl or domestic norms and to ease all forms of arbitrary abuses. They have strong tie for new investments, domination of marines and development of military power that neglect the decades old ongoing crimes against minorities. The disunited famous Rohingya leaders are just rushed with delegations and in meetings from Europe to Asia but they are being pointless and the crises become more and more deteriorating.

Photo: Soe Than Win/AFP/Getty Images  By  Oliver Griffin  NewStatesMan February 7, 2015 The status of Burma’s Rohingya people has devolved to the point where even naming them has become controversial.
