Daily Briefing in Relation to the Military Coup 

Updated 6 December 2021

As of December 6, (1303) people are now confirmed killed by this junta coup. Today, there were no confirmed fallen heroes. This is the number verified by AAPP, the actual number of fatalities is likely much higher. We will continue adding as and when.

As of December 6, a total of (7796) people are currently under detention. (357) people have been sentenced in person, of them 36 have been sentenced to death (incl. 2 children). 1963 are evading arrest warrants. 118 people have been sentenced in absentia, of them 39 sentenced to death in absentia. In total 75 sentenced to death, in person and absentia. The exact identities and total figure remains to be verified, but we will continue to confirm the recently released.

Today, State Counsellor, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and President, U Win Myint, were each sentenced to four years imprisonment under Section 25 of the Natural Disaster Management Law and Section 505 (b) of the Penal Code. Both have been detained since February 1. Zabu Thiri Township judge U Maung Maung Lwin handed down the sentence at a Private Court set up in Nay Pyi Taw. The lawsuits used were Section 25 of the Natural Disaster Management Law and Section 505 (b) of the Penal Code, each giving 2 years prison terms. 

On December 4 at around 11 pm, a 12-year-old called Banyar Han, was arrested as a hostage in Satone-Gway Kone Village (Ywar Ma) in Myothit Township, Magway Region when Junta soldiers did not find his father. In addition to this, two locals living in the same village, named Nyan Tun and Win Hlaing, were arrested. Nyan Tun and Win Hlaing were public campaigners for an NLD victory in the run-up to the November election.

The Assistance Association for Political Prisoners (Burma), otherwise known as AAPP, is a human rights organization based in Mae Sot, Thailand and Rangoon, Burma. AAPP advocates for the release of all remaining political prisoners in Burma and for the improvement of their quality of life during and after incarceration. AAPP has developed rehabilitation and assistance programs for those political activists who have been released while continuing to document the ongoing imprisonment of political activists in Burma.

As long as political prisoners exist inside Burma, Burma will not be free. They represent the struggle for democracy, human rights, equality and freedom for the people of Burma. This makes the immediate and unconditional release of all political prisoners an integral part of Burma’s drive for national reconciliation.
