“A group of Nasaka personnel numbering in four, from Mangala (Tharet Oo) village camp went to the same village sentry post to check the sentry men at night on January 26. While the Nasaka personnel were approaching the local village sentry camp secretly, the sentry men halted and asked them who they were, which made the Nasaka personnel very angry.”


“After reaching at the sentry post, the Nasaka gathered all the sentry men (10 members) in a line and asked them why they halted them (Nasaka). Asking this question, the sentry men were severely beaten up by the Nasaka with a stick.”

At last, the sentry men became unbearable situation, and the sentry men attacked the Nasaka, so, there was a hand to hand fighting between them. Three Nasaka personnel were severely beaten up by the sentry men, and one of them however managed to flee. Later, the wounded Nasaka personnel were sent to their camp by local village administration officer, said a village elder who denied to be named.

Regarding the incident, Nasaka officer did not take any action against the local village sentry men. However, the sentry men of the village, so far, do not sleep at home for fear of arrest by the Nasaka.

A school teacher said, “It is a normal duty for sentry men, to halt anybody who is approaching to the sentry post at night.”
