In order to cause injuries to both peaceable individuals and administrative authorities who are working to restore the rule of law, extreme terrorists provide financial assistance and instigate destructive activities, such as detonating explosive devices and remote blasting, against public roads, railways, departmental offices, and residential houses.
Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 6 September at 11:50 AM, a blue 2N/ XXXX SKAT vehicle, loaded with bricks, sand and stones, driven by U Aung Kyaw Oo (27 years old) who lives in Winwa Village of Thayetchaung Township, Tanintharyi Region, and accompanied by five individuals including U Kyaw Than (55 years old) who also lives in the same Village, was travelling along the Dawei-Meik Road. When the vehicle reached the mile post between 10/3 and 10/4, a group of four so called PDF terrorists (under scrutiny) attacked with three homemade mines which detonated. As a result, among individuals in the vehicle, U Kyaw Than sustained an injury to his left arm from mine shrapnel. He is currently receiving medical treatment at the Thayetchaung Township Public Hospital, it is reported.
It has been reported that the security personnel are investigating the perpetrators of the acts of terrorism from the above incident in order to be able to take effective action in accordance with laws.
