ဖော်ပြချက်/အကြောင်းအရာ:
"Unjustly sentenced to death, Jimmy, Phyo Zayar Thaw, Aung Thura Zaw, and Hla Myo Aung were
actually killed, the military council announced on July 25. Despite warnings and objections from
the international community, the decision was made without informing the families of the
political prisoners who were killed. In addition, there are reports that other people who have
been unjustly sentenced to death are being prepared for execution. We, the Burmese Women's
Union, strongly condemns the unlawful killing of these political activists in prison.
Currently, there are 77 people who are unjustly sentenced to death, including 9 women. In the
view of BWU, the jurisdiction under military council was unjust and all the sentences were
biased. In the current situation, the sentences themselves should be regarded as crimes and
murders. From the perspective of international human rights, the act shows no respect for
justice and human rights in terms of law. Furthermore, the right to life does not allow the death
penalty to be imposed on anyone. The action is also obviously against the essence of
democracy.
BWU is seriously concerned that the terrorist military council is in a position to carry out more
executions. So, now is the time for us to unite more to prevent such kind of actions. The actions
of the Terrorist Military Council ignore the interests of the people and risk the sweat, blood and
lives of many people to maintain their power. Therefore, in eradicating the military dictatorship,
the related alliance groups, Democracy and human rights activists and all the people should
work together in harmony, hand-in-hand.
Although the international community, including ASEAN, warned and protested against the
execution of political activists, the Terrorist Military Council did not recognize and acted against
it. The heinous actions of the Burmese military council proves that it is time for the international
community, including ASEAN, to take more practical measures to bring changes in Burma.
Therefore, it is important to immediately stop the inhumane acts of Burmese military. And, we
the Burmese Women Union, would like to urge international governments to put more and
severe pressures against Burmese military to stop its unlawful actions..."
