Army arrests woodcutters in Maungdaw south
More than 15 Rohingya woodcutters have been arrested by the military on Dec. 25 , said a villager.
“A group of military accompanied by Rakhine youths arrested the Rohingya woodcutters when they were returning to their homes after collecting firewood.”
The woodcutters, some of which are from Khonzabill and Udaung villages, were beaten before being arrested. A relative said the men were released after paying bribes.
