According to the report, the Buddhists and the Muslims in the area got locked up in racial riots and the ruling SPDC junta imposed curfew to diffuse the tension. As a result to the incident, there was losses of lives, destruction of property and a deep sense of animosity prevailed upon the two brotherly peoples, the Buddhists and the Muslims.
