A/HRC/39/CRP.2 the pile of burned bodies. Two weeks later piles of bones were also seen.2436 The total number of bodies is unclear, although it appears that there were up to 40 men and boys burned, possibly more.2437 One victim who had been held inside the mud-walled house informed the Mission that her husband and two young sons, aged 10 and 13 years old, had been killed and burned.2438 Other families were burned in their houses, with the corpses found later by fellow villagers.2439 1088. The total number of people killed in Dar Gyi Zar on 12 and 13 November is estimated to be 75, according to a list developed by Rohingya community organizations in the refugee camps of southern Bangladesh.2440 While the Mission is not able to verify the accuracy of this number, it is consistent with other information received by the Mission of a high number of casualties. 1089. The situation in the surrounding area after the burning of Dar Gyi Zar was very difficult, with large numbers of villagers sleeping in the open and further visits from Tatmadaw soldiers. The local ethnic Rakhine village administrator appears to have negotiated with the Tatmadaw regarding the return of the displaced Rohingya. Eventually some were able to return. They lived in constructed tents and temporary shelters on the sites of their former homes, with intermittent international aid distributions. Others made the journey to the refugee camps in Bangladesh. 2441 1090. Credible satellite imagery analysis shows that 265 structures were burned and destroyed in the village between 10 and 17 November 2017.2442 Rohingya community organizations have stated that a total of 400 structures were burned in Dar Gyi Zar, as well as five mosques and 38 shops, which were also looted.2443 Sexual and gender-based violence 1091. Rape, gang rape, and other forms of sexual violence were widely perpetrated in the course of the 2016 “area clearance operations”. Mass gang rapes, led by the Tatmadaw, 2444 were a significant pattern of the violence from October to December 2016. According to information verified by the Mission, they were perpetrated in Yae Khst Chaung Gwa Son, Kyein Chaung and Kyet Yoe Pyin, amongst other locations. A 14-year old girl from Maungdaw described her experience: We were hiding in the forest and the soldiers took my sister, who was 12-year old, and eight other girls. Four of them were raped and killed. Then the soldiers took me. There were around 40 women and girls in the forest. I remember the first man who raped me, feeling all the pain. I became numb to the next three men and then I went unconscious. They were raping most of the women and girls. 2445 1092. The Kyet Yoe Pyin “area clearance operation” in Maungdaw Township saw a particularly brutal level of sexual violence. Women and girls were subjected to mass gang rape, forced nudity, sexual humiliation and sexual assault. 2446 One 30-year old survivor, who was pregnant, described how a large group of soldiers arrived in a military truck. They then went house-to-house, taking jewellery, money and other belongings, before raping the 2436 2437 2438 2439 2440 2441 2442 2443 2444 2445 2446 258 LI-135. LI-123, LI-126, LI-135. LI-125.
