YANGON – Although investigations of two young female volunteer teachers from the Kachin Baptist ConventionYANGON – Although investigations of two young female volunteer teachers from the Kachin Baptist Convention (KBC) who were brutally raped and killed in Kaungkhar village in northern Shan State on January 19 are ongoing, the post-mortem results gathered on January 20 cannot be issued at once, said Zaw Yar, the KBC secretary for Momauk Zone.
“About 20 police officers, including the head of the Police Department for Muse District, went to Kaungkhar village again yesterday. We investigated not only all soldiers from No 503 Infantry Regiment under the North-East Command but also the Tactical Operations Commander and Column Commander deployed in the village, as well as the villagers. We urged them to seek the culprits. The investigation is not yet complete,” Zaw Yar told the Daily Eleven.
All soldiers from No 503 Infantry Regiment under the North-East Command are being investigated because the women were raped and murdered while the regiment was in the village. Continue reading “#MYANMAR #Release of #post- #mortem #results on #murdered #Kachin #teachers #postponed”→
A pragmatic solution must be sought(1)
Two young female volunteers from Kachin Baptist Convention (KBC) were brutally raped and killed in Kaungkhar village, Pan Sai Township, Muse District in northern Shan State on the night of January 19.
The two teachers, both 20-year-olds, were sent there by the KBC, a religious organisation which is influential over Kachin nationals and Kachin Independence Organisation.
But the problem concerns not only Kachin nationals but all the ethnicities living in Myanmar. There were many instances of ethnic women being raped and murdered in conflict regions in the past. Cases of physical assaults were also common.
The case of the two Kachin teachers will be more than an ordinary criminal case. The truth behind the case should be unveiled as soon as possible.

The rapist of a Peruvian woman in Kyaikthiyo faced 43-year jail term. Another culprit of an attempted rape case over an American woman was sentenced to life imprisonment. The proceedings of these cases finished in no time. Both of the offenders faced with the penalties much heavier than their actions.
A case has been filed under Section 302 of murder charge at Kyugoke Police Station, Pan Sai Township for the case of two Kachin volunteers. But this is not an ordinary felony but an unearthly gruesome rape-and-murder case.
Ten civilians and 30 soldiers from No. 503 Infantry Regiment under the North-East Command were questioned because the women were raped and murdered while the regiment was stationed in the village. Required forensic tests were conducted as well. Still, it is yet to identify the offenders.
Besides Kachin organisations, civil society organisations have called for a probe into the case. The US Department of State also weighed in and called on Myanmar to bring the perpetrators to justice on January 21.

Kaungkhar village in Nant Taung village-tract – the area where the tragedy took place – is located between Muse and Monekoe and only 10 miles away from the Muse 105th Mile trade hub.
First of all, it is within the reach of the rule of law. Secondly, it is located by the tarred road where the military columns used to pass through.
Further, troops from No.503 Infantry Regiment under the North-East Command arrived on the morning of January 19 and spent the night in Kaungkhar Village at the time of the incident. more on to read all

A new refugee camp is under construction at MongLai Hill, located north of Laiza Township, Kachin State, according to Save the War Victims Committee.
The camp will be the temporary shelter for 50 returned families of war victims fled across Narwan border area to China.
China is sending back the refugees who have sought safe haven due to the renewed fighting between the government and the Kachin Independence Army since 2011.
“In March, the Chinese told me to pick up our war victims. We agreed to the request. We would relocate some 140 war victims from 50 families to the newly-built camp, located in Narwan area of China, said Dwe Pe Hsar, chairperson of the committee.
He said his committee had no option but to comply with the Chinese request even though it was facing a difficult financial situation. This was the reason why the committee had to seek financial assistance from Mitta Foundation for the camp construction, he added.
The construction is expected to complete by next month.
The Manwaigyi refugees fled to China in 2012 and remained there after settling into new homes.
“First, the Chinese authorities agreed to accept the war victims and later changed their mind to have them returned. There are presently eight refugee camps,” said Dwe Pe Hsar. cr. eleven media
