In some townships across States and Regions, so-called PDF terrorists motivated by a radical ideology that views “anyone with differing views is an enemy” are conducting violent assaults and assassinations. Their targets are innocent civilians 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 15 July, 2024 at 10:20 AM, a report stated that a man was found dead with injuries near Hta Nyaunt Tin Village, Mindon Township of Magway Region. When security personnel promptly arrived at the scene for further investigation, it was discovered that on 14 July, at 09:00 PM, U Aye Aung (53 years old) a clerk of Zin Kyan Village Tract and a resident of Pan Daw Village in Mindon Township, was at his house when two so-called PDF terrorists arrived by a motorcycle and abducted him. The terrorists took him to a location west of the Pathein-Monywa Road near Hta Nyaunt Tin Village, where they opened fire on U Aye Aung, resulting in his immediate death, it is reported.
Security personnel are persistently taking necessary measures to identify and apprehend the terrorists responsible for the killing and assassination of an administrative official in the aforementioned case, it is reported.
