YANGON: Five villagers were killed by soldiers during an interrogation in Myanmar’s **rthern Shan State, a senior general said on Wednesday, in a rare admission by Myanmar’s still-powerful military which promised to prosecute the perpetrators.
Witnesses have told Reuters that soldiers rounded up dozens of men in the remote village of Mong Yaw, in an area riven by a long-running ethnic insurgency, on June 25 and led five men away.
The bodies of the five were found in a shallow grave a few days later. Lieutenant General Mya Tun Oo, one of Myanmar’s highest-ranking ******rs and the chief of military intelligence, told a news conference in Yangon that a court martial was under way and that the verdict would be made public. The military also pledged help for the victims’ families.
