Security situation is uncertain in Pak Taw. The township authorities told Pak Taw Ward 3 and 4 residents that they could not provide security to the residents. Thus, the residents are trying to leave their villages.
According to information received by M-Media at 11:48 last night (October 24, 2012), Muslim residents in Pak Taw township are worried as the border security forces also told that they could not take responsibility for the security of Char Ae Taung, Zaw Gyi, Nget Chaung, Lambadi and Don villages.
Some villagers thus went out at night to rent ferries to leave their villages. At Zay Cho village, they were shot from a Rakhine boat. Out of seven villagers, five escaped but two persons were arrested by Rakhines. The arrested villagers are
(1) Marlar Ahmed (age 34) (father: Mosta Ahmed)
(2) Hla Maung (age 31) (father: Kawbi Rahmed)
“Rakhines have arrested them. Since they are in Rakhines’ hands, they won’t come alive. Their bodies won’t even come back”, told a resident from Pak Taw.

Pak Taw Township at 11: 30 PM
Muslim refugees fleeing riots in Kyaut Phyu were killed by Rakhines in Taung Phuu village, Paw Taw township.
On 24 October, Muslim refugees were escaping the riot in three engine-less ferries pulled by an engined-one. Rakhines followed them by a boat and hit the engined ferry, cutting the ropes connecting the ferries. As the ferries and the refugees started floating in the water, Rakhines attacked and chopped them with swords. Many people were killed. A majority of victims were women.
A 10 year old child landed on a river bank in Pak Taw. He was taken to a local police station “for investigation”, a resident from Paw Taw told M-Media.

Army units have already been deployed in Myae Pon for security, but Muslims are facing food shortage. Since authorities in Rakhine state are not helping Muslims, refugees are feeling that they will die of hunger and that the Rakhine state government is killing them by starving them, said a resident from Sittwe.
Many Muslims in Yine Thae (aka) Zulafaya village in Kyaut U have been killed as well, according to reports. M-Media has been informed that Police Chief Thar San himself is leading the brutal killing.
