Kachin Woman Gang-raped in Church by Army Soldiers

(Photo: Chinland Guardian) 18 May 2012: About ten Burma Army soldiers gang-raped a 48-year-old Kachin woman over a period of three days in a church at Luk Pi village of Chipwi Township in Kachin State early this month. The incident took place when the soldiers from Light Infantry Battalion 347 and Infantry Battalion 118 patrolling near the Kachin-China border town of Pang Wa on 1 May found her sheltering alone in the church. A statement issued today by the Kachin Women's Association Thailand (KWAT) said the victim was beat up with rifle butts, stabbed with knives and stripped naked before the sexual violence committed by the soldiers. KWAT said the incident was witnessed by a 59-year-old villager, Yu Ta Gwi, who was looking after his paralyzed wife. Tied up in the church compound, kicked and stabbed by the Burmese troops, Yu Ta Gwi was later found semi-conscious together with the 'raped' woman and were taken to the hospital by some Kachin villagers. The Kachin woman, a grandmother of 12 children, has been reunited with her family but is still traumatized, according to KWAT. KWAT has accused Burma's new government of 'ignoring' the incident of sexual violence committed by soldiers and the Supreme Court of dismissing charges against the military for the abduction and disappearance of a Kachin woman named Sumlut Roi Ja. Moon Nay Li, KWAT coordinator, said: "The message from the Naypyidaw Supreme Court is clear: the Burmese military can rape and kill ethnic women with impunity." KWAT calls on Thein Sein's government to immediately stop using rape as a weapon of war and end the offensive against the Kachin. The new incident of sexual violence took place close to the site of planned Chipwi hydropower dam on the May Kha River, one of the seven planned mega-dams on the Irrawaddy and its upper tributaries. The spread of conflict to the Pang Wa area this month has displaced thousands more villagers, heightening the humanitarian crisis facing local communities seeking to feed and shelter over 70,000 people since the Kachin ceasefire was broken in June 2011. http://www.chinlandguardian.com/news-2009/1791-kachin-woman-gang-raped-in-church-by-army-soldiers.html

Burmese military uses CHEMICAL WEAPONS or BOMBS in this offensive attacked against KIA troops. According to KIA frontline troop reported (3) of KIA soldiers were inflicted by the CHEMICAL BOMBS severely.

We Kachin people appeal to United Security Council (UN), USA, UK, EU and world communities’ leader to stop Burmese military the use of CHEMICAL WEAPONS in civil war against KIA in particular Kachin civilian in Kachin State. We, Kachin people concern grave danger of CHEMICAL WEAPONS used by Burmese military in civil war against Kachin people in Burma. In spite of political reformed by regime government in Yangon Burma only but on the other hand Burmese military has intensified attacked against Kachin civilian and threaten to wipe out Kachin Ethnic in Burma.

The following household name lists homes are being burned and ruined by merciless fire torched intentional by Burmese military.

Three Hurt in Kachin State Bomb Blast

Three Hurt in Kachin State Bomb Blast

There was a powerful bomb explosion in Myitkyina in the heart of Kachin State on Wednesday, 25 April 2012 at 7:00am local time. Three people have been wounded after a bomb blast took placeed near Hospital in Myitkyina, the capital of Kachin State. The explosion took  placed at around 7:00 am at near by the hospital in the Myitkyina, the Capital City of Kachin State. Government troops started offensive since June 09 2011 against Kachin Independence Army (KIA) and Kachin people have been attacked deadly, violence,torture, brutal killing and rapping women have committed by Myanmar Army in all Kachin States since a 17-year ceasefire agreement was broken by Burmese military and regime govenment.

According to eyes witness reported that two men and one young girl name Naw Sar Se 6 year old were among the victims of the bomb explodsion. The male victim has injuries to his face and all three are currently receiving treatment in near by Myitkyina Hospital in Kachin state. We Kachin people condamn the act of terrorist against Kachin people committed by Burmese military and regime government. Since June 2011 Burmese military started offensive against KIA and Kachin people, bombing by Burmese military and regime against Kachin civilian and homes in Myitkyina was committed deadly human right violation.

Burmese state media has already blamed the KIA for the incident and this was a Burmese military and regime government propaganda usually carried out base on the past histories, this kind of wicked killing was trademark of Burmese military and regime government. We Kachin people or KIA has not done such dirty acts in our past. We defend for our Kachin Land and people right from intrusion, oppression and aggression commited about over 50 by Burmese military and Burmese regime government since 1961.
The blast comes just days after the Kachin Independence Organization, the KIA’s political wing, refused an offer from the Burmese government for further peace talks in Myitkyina. Why was Burmese regime selected not proper loaction for peace talk? instead of China border tawn or even in the US,UK Japan or EU countries for geniune peace talk to witnes by the world leaders? We Kachin people has learnt from the past histories of Burmese military and regime government dishornesty, that's why KIA/KIO rejected regime selected location for peace talk.
This is the third such explosion in Myitkyina this month carried out by Burmese military and regime as a propagan to accuse KIA/KIO involment in such dirty tatic of killing and harming civilian. During the Burmese water festival, one bomb blew up near to the entrance of the city causing a celebration concert to halt.
Burmese military offensive against KIA and Kachin people has been ongoing for almost one year and there is still no peace agreement despite the KIA/KIO holding three rounds of negotiations. The real lasting peace will not able to achieve with Kachin people until Kachin people have self governance and self determination for our own future and as long as Burmese military and regime continue offensive oppression, attacking, killing, looting,raping women in all Kachin States.
Fierce clashes have forced around 70,000 civilians, including many women and children, to flee their homes and live in temporary camps by the Sino-Burmese border and Kachin States under KIA/KIO control areas according to US human right report, and many other world reporters have witness by their own eyes.
There was another bomb explosion occured on Friday 27 April 2012 in Kachin State and not known yet exact location, number of casualties. We will continue to update the news as soon as we have report from front line sources.
