Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo worked meticulously last year to unpick events that led to the slaughter of 10 Rohingya men in the village of Inn Din in the Myanmar province of Rakhine. This was one of many massacres committed after the army sealed the province off and began a systematic campaign of terror which has driven the majority of the Muslim population into Bangladesh. The report published by Reuters after the arrest of its two reporters was unprecedented. It provided a detailed record of the kind of planning, incitement to violence, and murderous brutality that led a UN investigation team last week to recommend that Myanmar’s army leadership should be tried for genocide.
瓦隆(Wa Lone)和觉梭(Kyaw Soe Oo)去年进行了细致入微的调查，试图查清缅甸若开邦(Rakhine)因丁村(Inn Din) 10名罗兴亚人遭屠杀的先因后果。这是在军队封锁该邦并启动系统性恐吓行动后发生的多场屠杀之一，军队的系统性恐吓行动已把大多数穆斯林人口赶到孟加拉国。路透社(Reuters)在其两名记者被捕后发表的这份报告是史无前例的。该报告详细记录了军方是如何蓄谋策划、煽动暴力和残忍施暴。报告中披露的情况促使联合国(UN)的一个调查小组上周建议，应以种族灭绝罪对缅甸军方领导人进行审判。
