Hpaulu Kaw, a 78-year-old Kachin woman, died of shock on Thursday at around 4 pm while being surrounded by Burmese army soldiers inside a church in Mungding Pa village, said a KLN source. After Hpaulu Kaw’s death, two men were taken out of the church by soldiers to bury her body. About 400 villagers are currently being confined inside the church compound as they could not flee during Tuesday raid by government soldiers on Mungding Pa village. Some villagers managed to escape Burmese army’s raid and fled to nearby villages but some are still wandering in the forest, said a villager who had fled to Namlim Pa village.
