There are the missing semicolon above and other problems with the code.

I think you wanted to append:

             hashElement[hashesArr[j]] ~= plainArr[i][j];

What helped me see what was going on was a bunch of pragma(msg) lines:

             pragma(msg, typeof(hashElement));
             pragma(msg, typeof(hashesArr[j]));
             pragma(msg, typeof(hashElement[hashesArr[j]]));
             pragma(msg, typeof(plainArr[i][j]));
