Myanmar beauty queen got her title snatched; blames video of Rohingya

Shwe Eain Si, Miss Grand Myanmar 2017 was stripped of her peagent title. The beauty said that she wasn't even shown the courtesy of being informed before dethroning her and believes the sudden decision was because of her video which she posted online accusing Rohingya Muslims of indulging in communal violence in Rakhine state of Myanmar.

"Mainly it's because of the Rohingya issue, about the video that I put out. About a week ago I got dethroned. They didn't get in touch with me, that's the thing. They didn't send me any warning, they didn't tell me anything by phone, by email or by text. They didn't do any of that", Ms. Si said.

But the firm behind the Miss Universe Myanmar pageant , rejected Shwe Eain Si's claims even praising the video clip in a limited manner. "The decision of Miss Universe Myanmar organisation regarding Shwe Eain Si was not related at all with the Rakhine video," the company said in a Facebook post.

Adding, "Although the video file posted now is good, it would be better if it was filmed more completely."
