YANGON: Myanmar dogfaces have been indicted of rounding up 11 people in a vill in a central area of the strife-torn country before shooting them and setting fire to their bodies, according to residers in the area and media reports.
The charred remains were planted in a vill in Sagaing, an area which has seen fierce fighting between security forces and hosts set up by opponents of military rule since a Feb 1 achievement, said residers, who said some of the victims were still alive when burned.
Videotape footage purporting to show the burned bodies was circulated on social media and images were published by some media including the Myanmar Now news gate. A levy aid worker in the area said by telephone colors had entered Don Taw vill beforehand on Tuesday and the victims were killed at around 11 am that day.
“ The colors were just severely killing anyone they could find,” the levy said, citing substantiation accounts. The levy has supported people who have fled Don Taw and other near townlets. The levy said it was unclear if the victims were host members or ordinary civilians.
Myanmar has been in chaos since the service overthrew Aung San Suu Kyi’s democratically tagged government, with wide demurrers and the conformation of the host, known as People’s Defence Forces (PDF), to take on the well-equipped army.

Kyaw Wunna, a member of a PDF in the region, said by telephone he was informed that colors had arrived firing munitions and those detained were taken to a field near the vill before being killed. Kyaw Wunna declined to expose the source of the information.
Another levy aid worker said they had spoken to substantiations among some of the people who had fled from five townlets in the area and had gone into caching, fearful of further apprehensions and killings.
A relative of one of the victims said the dead man, Htet Ko, was a 22- time-old university pupil and not a member of any host and not fortified.
“ This is inhuman. I feel deep pain in my heart,” said the relative, who said the man had tried to flee but had been wounded by gunfire.
Dr. Sasa, a prophet for Myanmar’s shadow mercenary government set up following the achievement, contended the victims had been “ lashed together, tortured, and eventually burned alive”.
In a post on social media, he listed what he said were the names of the 11, all manly and including a boy of 14. “ These terrible attacks show that the service has no regard for the saintship of mortal life,” he said.
The Assistance Association for Political Captures (AAPP), a monitoring group cited by the United Nations, says further than civilians have been detained and killed by security forces since the military seized power.
The service says AAPP is prejudiced and uses inflated data and that hundreds of dogfaces have also been killed.
