MANDALAY DIVISION- Residents told the media that the terrorist army raided 3 villages in Madaya Township, arrested and killed 2 people, and burned some homes and motorcycles.
On March 29, at around 6:00 a.m., the terrorist military council soldiers entered the Kyauksayitkone, Mawnikone, and Kyokyar Kan villages in Madaya Township and shot and killed the 72-year-old Mr. Pwa from Kyauksayitkone village and 53-year-old Mr. Soe Tint from Kyokyar Kan village.
“The military dogs told Mr. Pwa that they would shoot him if he answered No or unknown for three times. Mr. Pwa only replied that he didn’t know. Then the junta troops told the other arrestee to leave and not to look back. Only three gunshots were heard that a soldier (seemed to be) reporting that Mr. Pwa had been packed (slang for being killed),” said a witness.
After the terrorist army left the village, locals retrieved Mr. Pwa’s body and found gunshot wounds on the chest and neck. The body was buried on the same day.
Similarly, when the terrorist army entered Kyokyar Kan village, Mr.Soe Tint, was taken away from his home and reportedly killed in a mango farm in the west of the village. When Mr. Soe Tint’s family went to pick up the body, terrorist military council troops did not return it and thus they do not know how he was killed.
When the terrorist military column raided the villages, they burnt down some houses and motorcycles, and also threatened locals not to stay in the village or that they would come and burn down the houses again. So, the locals were reportedly fleeing.
