YANGON (Reuters) - A Muslim businessman, his wife and an employee have been sentenced to prison after an altercation at their gold shop led to anti-Muslim riots in which at least 43 people were killed in Myanmar last month.
Shop owner Tun Tun Oo, his wife Myint Myint Aye and an employee, Nyi Nyi, were each jailed for 14 years on Thursday for assault and theft after an argument with a customer turned violent, according to the state-run Kyemon newspaper.
Witnesses told Reuters that on March 21, Tun Tun Oo slapped a Buddhist woman who had accused employees of damaging a gold hair clip she wanted to sell. The woman's husband was pulled outside, held down and beaten by three of the shop's staff, according to the couple and two witnesses.
A mostly Buddhist crowd gathered, hurling stones and shouting anti-Muslim insults, eventually destroying the shop and neighboring businesses. Later that day, four Muslim men killed a Buddhist monk and Buddhist mobs went on the rampage.
By the time the government declared a state of emergency three days later, at least 43 people were dead, 86 injured and almost 13,000 Muslims were homeless, their houses and businesses burned to the ground. The rioting spread to towns and villages near the capital, Naypyitaw, and eventually reached areas just two hours' drive from Myanmar's biggest city, Yangon.

Finally they get a taste of their own damn medicine. About time, should happen more often. I say bravo to those that finally struck back at this enslaving murderous religion and its murdering followers!!
Just imagine how bad the muslims must have been there to get the Buddhists to resort to such violence..
Return fire shocks the hell out of the Islamists because they are so used to getting completely away with their evil deeds.
Notice why the Buddhists went on a rampage? Was after 4 muslims murdered a Buddhist monk! Notice it took 4 to kill the monk , thats because as I have always stated they are cowards that alwas strike when they out number the victim. I say hell yes it was time to give back that which the terrorist religion murderers are always happily dishing out. --Tyr
