REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, YANGON -- Myanmar Minister of Religious Affairs U Hsan Hsint has been terminated from duty, said an order of the President's Office published Friday.

Investigation will be made and legal action will be taken against the sacked minister allegedly for misappropriating state fund, local media reported.

The minister was also charged with creating conflicts between Buddhist monks and the government's State Sanga Maha Nayaka Committee, the highest office of Buddhist monks in the country.

The order came after a monastery, Mahasantisukha, in Yangon's Tammwe township was raided at midnight on June 10 by hundreds of riot police over ownership dispute, in which about 20 monks were reportedly held.

Although 15 of them were released later, a senior monk who was visiting from Britain, and five others were charged and stripped of their clerical status by senior monks and imprisoned on June 13.

The case is being heard by a Yangon township court.

The President's Office issued an order on the same day allowing Rakhine State Chief Minister U Hla Maung Tin to resign out of his own volition.

وَمَا تَفَرَّقُوْٓا اِلَّا مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَاۤءَهُمُ الْعِلْمُ بَغْيًاۢ بَيْنَهُمْۗ وَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَتْ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ اِلٰٓى اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى لَّقُضِيَ بَيْنَهُمْۗ وَاِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ اُوْرِثُوا الْكِتٰبَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِهِمْ لَفِيْ شَكٍّ مِّنْهُ مُرِيْبٍ
Dan mereka (Ahli Kitab) tidak berpecah belah kecuali setelah datang kepada mereka ilmu (kebenaran yang disampaikan oleh para nabi) karena kedengkian antara sesama mereka. Jika tidaklah karena suatu ketetapan yang telah ada dahulunya dari Tuhanmu (untuk menangguhkan azab) sampai batas waktu yang ditentukan, pastilah hukuman bagi mereka telah dilaksanakan. Dan sesungguhnya orang-orang yang mewarisi Kitab (Taurat dan Injil) setelah mereka (pada zaman Muhammad), benar-benar berada dalam keraguan yang mendalam tentang Kitab (Al-Qur'an) itu.

(QS. Asy-Syura ayat 14)
