September 9, 2024
HURFOM: On September 5th, 2024, the military junta has arrested a couple from Yaw Lut village, Chaung Zone Township, Mon State at their home.
The soldiers and police members arrested U Zaw Min and his wife Daw Aye Nine at noon and accused them of committing fraud and human trafficking.
“The couple has opened a Japanese language center in the village. U Zaw Min is also a driver of the village monastery. Both of them were arrested at their home. The authority said nothing during the arrest. But they charged them with fraud and human trafficking in the evening,” said a Yaw Lut resident.
The local villagers said the couple had been detained at the Chaung Zone Township Police Station and interrogated by the junta but HUFROM is still unable to confirm the source.
“They didn’t commit such crimes. They’ve just operated the Japanese training. They have wrongly been accused,” said another resident.
During the three years of attempted coup, the junta has arrested more than 1,000 civilians in Mon State, according to the report by the Assistance Association for the Political Prisoners (AAPP).
