Between February 1, 2021, and March 31, 2023, the junta seized at least 751 properties, targeting pro-democracy supporters across the country. These seizures have affected at least 636 property owners—at least 300 of which are Members of Parliament, members of the National League for Democracy (NLD) party, and/or supporters of the NLD. AAPP’s documentation shows that the junta’s property seizures usually occur in connection with the junta intending to or actually arresting the property owner because of their support for the pro-democracy movement.

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.
