YANGON DIVISION – Junta appointed ward administration officer Tin Tun is said to have sent threats and intimidated the residents of around 250 households near police battalion 8 on Myasabel Road, Pale Ward 3, Shwenantha Village Tract, Mingaladon Township to move out of their houses by May 10.
Tin Tun, accompanied by his son and hired thugs, reportedly distributed the eviction notices on May 8 and threatened that he would bring the junta forces if the residents do not move out.
“Administration officer Tin Tun threatened us saying that we cannot exist as long as he exists. He even brought thugs,” said a resident of the ward.
It is said that Tin Tun turned his efforts to evict the residents after he failed to gather young people under the junta council’s conscription law.
Residents of the ward in question explained that they have been living there since 2010 and denied the accusations that they were squatters.
