A local resident from Maungdaw Township has recounted his ordeal after being detained by members of the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) while traveling to seek medical treatment, according to an interview conducted by local media.

The man said he was intercepted and taken by the group during his journey for healthcare assistance. He reported that he was held for a period of time under guard and questioned about his movements and background.

According to the interview, the detainee later managed to escape from custody under unclear circumstances and returned to safety. He did not sustain serious injuries during the incident but described the experience as traumatic.

Local residents say such incidents have heightened fear and insecurity among civilians in parts of northern Maungdaw, particularly for those traveling for medical or livelihood-related reasons.

The incident adds to ongoing concerns raised by locals about the safety of civilians amid the presence of armed groups in the area.

Ancient Buddhist Kingdom Under Siege by Jihadist Movements

-
The narrative "Arakan - Ancient Buddhist Kingdom, Endangered by Jihad" portrays Arakan (Rakhine State, Myanmar) as a historic Buddhist kingdom with a centuries-old cultural heritage, now threatened by jihadist violence, primarily from the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) and other Rohingya militant groups. It alleges these groups have engaged in violent campaigns since 1942, including massacres, arson, and ethnic cleansing targeting Buddhists, Hindus, and other minorities, with the goal of establishing an Islamic state. Highlighting events like the 2017 massacre of 99 Hindus, the account claims these actions endanger Arakan’s religious and cultural identity, framing the conflict as part of a broader extremist agenda. https://x.com/ArakanBaynews/status/1896597827733864845
