These (4) fallen heroes from Nahtogyi Township in Mandalay Region were killed on January 19 and documented today. This is the number verified by AAPP.

In total 82 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.

On January 18 at around 1 am, the armed wing of the Junta raided Latpan Village in Nahtogyi Township, Mandalay Region and arrested 13 local villagers. Four of these villagers named Myat Moe a.k.a Phoe Gyi, Kyaw Myo Win, Phoe Htaw and Myo Min Htet, who are farmers, were killed during interrogation on January 19.

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.
