In some townships of States and Regions, armed terrorists, based on the one-sided ideology of extremism ‘Everyone who differs from my attitude is my enemy’, are committing violent attacks and assassinations against innocent civilians who do not support their terrorist acts, using guns and knives, after accusing them of “Spy/ Informer/ Decoy (Dalan)” to make civilians who live peacefully, very frightened.
Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 4 December at 06:30 AM, U Khin Oo (53 years old) and his wife Daw San Kyu (56 years old), who lived in Ayemyatharyar Village, Bokepyin Township,Tanintharyi Region, were travelling on a motorcycle from Ayemyathryar Village to Bokepyin Town along Pyihtaungsu road. Between mile posts 165/7 and 166, near Hankapyu Village in Bokepyin Township, they were stopped by two so-called PDF terrorists (under scrutiny) who forcibly halted their motorcycle at gunpoint and detained them. Later, when the terrorists arrived near the oil palm plantation, they opened fire on U Khin Oo and Daw San Kyu. As a result, Daw San Kyu was dead from gunshot injuries while U Khin Oo sustained gunshot injuries. U Khin Oo was transported to the Myeik Township Public Hospital for medical treatment, it is reported.
Security personnel are continuing necessary actions to identify and arrest those terrorists who committed wantonly killings and assassinations against innocent civilians in the abovementioned case based on the one-sided ideology of extremism ‘Everyone who differs from my attitude is my enemy’, it is reported.
