The Secretary General of Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Iyad bin Amin Madani has urged the authorities in Myanmar to take a stern action and to immediately investigate the destruction of parts of a mosque and other buildings in the mosque compound in Thuyethamain village, Bago Region near central Myanmar, and bring the perpetrators to justice while ensuring that the victims receive necessary assistance, Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
The Secretary General stressed in a press statement that failure to investigate would send a worrying message that attacks against religious minorities can continue to go unpunished. The NLD Government must condemn this attack, especially that it happens during The Holy Month of Ramadan, and condemn other attacks on religious minorities and make it clear that such violence is a criminal offence and will not be tolerated.
An unidentified mob partially destroyed a mosque on June 23 and other buildings in the mosque.
