HURFOM: On February 4th, 2025, three young women were arrested by the joint team of the junta’s soldiers and the police members in a shopping mall in Dawei City, Dawei Township, Tenasserim Division.
Ma Zin Mar Soe, Ma Mee Eeek and Ma Phyu Zine Phyo, all in their 20s, from Yan Taung village, Tha Yet Chaung Township were in a shopping mall near the Dawei City Police Station after attending a wedding ceremony in Dawei City. At approximately 9 am, five junta’s forces and a man in civilian clothes entered the shopping mall and arrested them, reported a witness.
“They are friends and all are in their 20s. They were arrested while shopping in the “Ahla Thit” mall. The junta has accused them of supporting the PDF. But I’m not sure,” said a Yan Taung resident.
Two motorbikes belonging to the women were also seized by junta’s troops.
The three women were taken to the Dawei District Police Station at first but later, were transferred to the Dawei City Police Station, according to a source close to young women.
“At the moment, all three are being detained in the Dawei City Police Station,” said a source close to their family.
