UN AGENCY ALARMED BY DEATHS OF DISPLACED PERSONS IN MYANMAR'S RAKHINE STATE
New York, Jun 28 2013 12:00PM
The United Nations refugee agency today voiced concern about a violent
incident in western Myanmar's Rakhine state that killed two internally
displaced persons (IDPs) and wounded six others, including two minors.

The incident took place yesterday morning in the Kyein Ni Pyin IDP
camp in Pauktaw township, a site where the UN High Commissioner for
Refugees (UNHCR) has been building temporary shelters for some 4,400
ethnic Rohingya displaced by last year's inter-communal violence.

"The [latest] violence is believed to have been triggered by a dispute
between displaced people and a village leader," UNHCR spokesperson
Adrian Edwards told a news conference in Geneva. "A reportedly poor
relationship between them had been compounded by false rumours that
displaced people would be isolated and prevented from returning to
their places of origin.

"When some of the displaced gathered at a nearby military post asking
that the leader be handed over, gunfire was used by the authorities to
disperse the crowd and resulting in the fatalities and wounding," he
said.

UNHCR staff arrived at the scene shortly after to follow up with the
victims' families and facilitate medical attention to the injured. "We
are also concerned about the safety of the village leader and his
family," said Mr. Edwards.

The agency is calling for an investigation into the incident, and
appealing to the authorities to handle the matter in a peaceful and
calm way to avoid fuelling further violence and loss of life. It is
also calling for dialogue between the involved parties to resolve the
grievance.

"Joint efforts by the Government, community leaders and humanitarian
actors are also needed to dispel rumours about the rights of displaced
people to return to their places of origin in Kyein Ni Pyin and other
villages where these sentiments have been emerging," said Mr. Edwards.

UNHCR is the lead agency for shelter, camp coordination, camp
management and protection in the humanitarian response in Rakhine
state. Its current priority is to provide temporary relief for the
displaced during the rainy season.

"We strongly believe that the Government must build confidence with
the communities and promote reconciliation, so that those displaced
can eventually return to their areas of origin," Mr. Edwards stated.

He added that Thursday's tragic incident also highlights the urgent
need to strengthen the camp coordination and camp management work
which is grossly underfunded despite current needs. A year after the
first wave of inter-communal violence erupted, there are still up to
140,000 people displaced within Rakhine state.
