This inquiry was initiated by the British government in Burma following the riot of 1938 that started in Rangoon (present day Yangon) and targeted Muslims. A book by Burmese Muslim Maung Shwe Hpi incited the anger of Buddhists over perceived insults to their religious beliefs. Though the inquiry committee determined that the book was not the root cause of the riots, it certainly sparked the unrest, along with a nationalist press, among Burmese nationals and Buddhist monks that led to extensive property damage and many Muslims being killed or injured.
