BAGO DIVISION – The USDP campaign officer that tried to take the position of the vacant position of village administrator in Gwaychaung Village of Daungspa Village Tract, Oakpho Township was said to be eliminated by Oakpho Township People’s Defence Team.
39 year old Myo Zaw Aung, the campaign officer of junta’s political party USDP for Gwaychaung Village, was said to be killed at his home at past 9 a.m. on August 26.
“We have been observing him for a long time. We took the opportunity to attack him at his house in the northern part of the village. We shot him two times and he died on the spot,” said the officer of Oakpho People’s Defence Team.
Myo Zaw Aung reportedly died from the bullet wounds in the chest and back. He had summoned junta forces to arrest and pressure CDM employees to abandon the movement, reported the local residents for cursing at the coup leader Min Aung Hlaing and scouted the PDF for the junta council.
In addition, he had attended the junta council’s Pyu Saw Htee training and was preparing to get appointed to the position of Daungspa Village Tract administrator.
Around 20 junta and police forces arrived at the scene an hour after the attack to collect the body and questioned nearby people.
On August 7 evening, the temporary village administrator for Htanpinkone Village in Oakpho Township was similarly killed at his house.
