Administrative Official Recklessly Assassinated by So-called PDF Terrorists

     In some townships across States and Regions, terrorists motivated by a radical ideology that views “anyone with differing views is an enemy” are conducting violent assaults and assassinations. Their targets are administrative officials who do not support their terrorist acts. Using firearms and knives, these terrorists are committing brutal assassinations after accusing them of “spies, informants or decoys”. This strategy is intended to instill fear among peaceable civilians and create a pervasive sense of dread within these communities.
     Since they are committing such terrorist acts, on 28 December 2024 at 7:30 AM, Village Administrator U Tin Win (aka) Sein Win Maung (50 years old), a resident of Nyaung Pin Kwin Village in Kan Ma Township of Magway Region, was in his house when four so-called PDF terrorists arrived and abducted him. Later, the terrorists took him on the Nyaung Pin Kwin Village and Lal Pin Village Commutable Road, approximately one mile southwest of Lal Pin Village, where they shot him. As a result, U Tin Win (aka) Sein Win Maung died on the spot, it is reported.
     Security personnel are persistently taking necessary measures to identify and apprehend the terrorists responsible for the killing and assassination of administrative official in the aforementioned case, it is reported.
