BAGO DIVISION- In Pyay District Paungde Township, Mr. Win Hlaing from the Nwarchangone village group was reportedly assassinated yesterday (May 5) at around 1:00 p.m. and died on the spot.
The junta-appointed administrator Mr.Win Hlaing was reportedly cleared by the 5th Company (Taw Bayin company) of the Pyay People’s Defense Force (3601 PPDF) at home and witnessed (confirmed) his death.
A person close to him said, “The previous administrator was also assassinated. He fearlessly said that he wanted to be an administrator, so junta gave him the job. He was also killed once he took the job.”
During the period when Mr. Win Hlaing was serving as the junta administrator, he threatened the villagers and asked for money regarding the land issue and forced/arrested the lower-class people into military service. According to PPDF officials, he was cleared since he committed the aforementioned actions.
A villager said, “One child is not even 20 years old. He is looking after his 70-year-old grandfather. Mr. Win Hlaing personally arrested that child to serve in the military.”
The PPDF announced that the administrators of the Military Council in Paungde Township should resign as soon as possible and that those who continue to join the Military Council will not be guaranteed their lives.
On May 2, in Paungde Township, 10 military council soldiers who came out to take a shower from the Thitpote Tower camp were attacked by PPDF with landmines, killing 3 and injuring many others, according to the PPDF’s statement on May 3.
