Departments in Maungdaw District confirmed that the terrorist Military is preparing to accept the Rohingyas who fled to Bangladesh.
” We have been instructed to prepare everything completely by next September. The Myanmar side is also verifying the list of those who will return. I think we will start re-acceptance next October,” an official from Maungdaw District General Administration Department told the MPA.
In order to make such preparations, the departments in Maungdaw District have sent confidential instructions to all relevant departments, it has also been investigated that departmental work completions are also required to be submitted with photographs in monthly reports.
It has been investigated that the repatriation has been prepared to accept those who returned from the land route in Taung Pyo Wae, and those who returned from the waterway in Nga Khu Ra and has agreed with Bangladesh to accept up to 150 people per week from Taung Pyo Wae, and 300 people per week from Nga Khu Ra.
”We have been working to accept it back since the NLD government. Employees from various departments are still on duty at the temporary reception centres. Some buildings have been collapsed for a long time,” an employee on duty at the Hla Hpoe Khaung Temporary Reception Center told the MPA.
The re-entering Rohingyas are planned to be resettled in the villages only after they are placed in temporary camps and intermediate camps such as Taung Pyo Wae, Ngar Khu Ra, Kyein Chaung, and Hla Hpoe Khaung, but the MPA found out that most of the buildings in the temporary camp and intermediate camp have been collapsed.
Through these camps, the MPA also found out that they are preparing to resettle only in villages such as Pan Taw Pyin, Hla Hpoe Khaung, Thae Chaung (Hla Hpoe Khaung), Kyauk Hlay Khar, Thet Kei Pyin, Dar Gye Sar, Sa Pae Kone, Doe Tan, Bakka Gone Nar, Kyein Chaung (South), Kyauk Pyin Seik (East), Kyauk Pyin Seik (West), Kyauk Pyin Seik (South), Pwint Phyu Chaung, Sung Paing Nyar, Kyun Pauk Pyute Su, Myoe Mi Chaung, Thae Chaung (Malawi).
Although the terrorist Military has been reasoned preparing to accept the Rohingyas back to Bangladesh, the Rohingyas said that the Rohingyas who actually came back of their own volition are being arrested and prosecuted and sentenced to prison terms.
“If you give money to the border guards and Ya Ra Ka (Members of Wards/Villages Peace and Development Council), you can come in and out at any time. If you don’t pay, they will come to your home and arrest you. The Rohingyas are of the opinion that they can only survive if only they have money,” a Rohingya from Maungdaw town told the MPA.
