Maungdaw- A madrasa teacher was arrested on trumped up terrorism charges from Raimmakhali in Maungdaw North.
On Monday, a Hlun Htein team went to the house of Md Shafiullah, 32, and made the arrest.
Shafiullah has been taken to the custody where he is facing brutal torture, according to local sources.
Torture of Muslim prisoners continue to be a norm with hundreds dead and many more maimed in recent years.
Even before the clearance operation of 2016, village authorities and security forces were working on a list of educated people engaged in social work for their community. It is feared by the authorities that such people might provide valuable leadership for the Rohingya community in the event of a revolution.
In recent days, a number of educated people are on the run throughout Maungdaw and Buthidaung as security forces are looking to arrest many of them.
