Seven men were arrested from Kúaiccong, Maungdaw South for giving boundaries on their vegetable fields.
The Hlun Htein made these arrests on Saturday. The arrested men have been brutally assaulted in custody, says our correspondent from the nearby village tract of Basara.
Local sources say that in the last few days, the Hlun Htein has gone on an extortion spree, fining Rohingyas on flimsy charges.
Many were earlier fined for having boundaries covering their toilets. The fines are a huge financial pressure for destitute locals already living on the margins.
