#BURMA #MYANMAR #solo #protest #release #information #killed #journalist #Ko #Par #Gyi..

Thein Aung Myint, who was indicted for violating Section 18 of the penal code, staged a solo protest in front of the Aungmyethazan Township court against the presiding judge on December 15. He was on trial for advocating the release of information on the murder of freelance journalist Ko Par Gyi, and he now accuses the judge who indicted him of unfair bias.
Thein Aung Myint applied for permission to stage his protest in front of the court house, but his application was rejected. On the same day, Mandalay residents and civic organisations also protested against the judge.

“I was sued for violating Section 18 by demonstrating to find out the truth about the Par Gyi murder case. The township judge favoured the plaintiffs,” the defendant said.
Township deputy judge Hlwan Moe Aung held a press conference to address the defendant’s protest against the court.

“He demonstrated to find out the truth about the Par Gyi case on October 27 without permission. Now he protests against the judge for unfairness. We did not bully him in court, and we handled the case in accordance with existing laws, rules and procedures. The judicial system is independent and free from the control of the administrative pillar.”
Hlwan Moe Aung added that Thein Aung Myint will not be charged for demonstrating in front of the court because the demonstration was in line with the law.
Mandalay residents demonstrated on October 27 and November 4 to demand the release of information on the Par Gyi case. The authorities charged Thein Aung Myint alone for violating Section 18.

The two wooden lodgings were however badly damaged by the bomb explosions.

Police said that as one group of suspected militants opened fire at a market in Bacho district apparently to distract police’s attention from the police station where another group was moving under the cover of darkness toward two lodgings in the police station’s compound.

Pol Lance Corporal Siam Temteh and Pol Lance Corporal Pannakait Srinakitja were resting in the lodgings unaware that the suspected militants were about to launch the attack.

Once close enough toward the target, the suspected militants threw one M67 hand grenade and two home-made bombs at the lodgings causing loud explosions. Luckily the bombs missed the targets

An unknown number of southern militants attacked an outpost of a police special action force Tuesday but caused no casualties.
The outpost is located near the roadside of Highway 4007 from Bannang Dama to Lupo Banyang in Kabang district of Yala.

The militants fired upon the police outpost with assault rifles.

After a brief exchange of gunfire, the militants retreated under cover of darkness.

Meanwhile a police station in Bacho district of Narathiwat was also attacked early Tuesday with M 79 grenade launchers.
The grenade missed the station but hit a house of the police. No one was hurt.

Army rangers in Ra Ngae district also encircled a target at Ban Bago Sato, and apprehended a militant wanted for many serious crimes. Two others managed to escape.

Several rounds of ammunition were seized from the house.
