Reuters' Inn Din Massacre Investigation (Myanmar) Reuters reporters Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo documented the killing of ten Rohingya men by soldiers and villagers in Inn Din, Rakhine State, in September 2017. It was hard, specific evidence of what the army was doing during the expulsion of the Rohingya. Police arrested both men in December 2017, and in September 2018 they were sentenced to seven years under the colonial-era Official Secrets Act; they said a police officer had set them up. The story ran while they were in prison, won a Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting, and even the military's own inquiry confirmed the massacre. They were freed in a mass amnesty in May 2019 after 511 days.
