Another Rakhaine attack in Pawktaw, leaves three more wounded

Three more Rohingyas were subject to a Rakhine attack near Nga Chaung IDP camp in Pawktaw, Sittwe, around 1 pm on Tuesday. While bird-hunting in the area, the men were ambushed and heavily beaten by a group of Rakhaine extremists from a neighbouring village.

The critically wounded and abandoned bodies of the victims; Mohammed Alam (son of Zaker Ahmed), Mohammed Nuru (son of Zaker Ahmed) and Monzur Rahman (son of Abdu Sattar) were found hours later at night and taken back to the camp, where they are suffering from the lack of any further medical assistance.
