‘Military dogs bite,’ soldiers tell protesters as they inflict vicious beatings

Dozens of protesters, including women and young students, were subjected to brutal treatment following a crackdown on Tuesday

“They took turns, beating us relentlessly. We couldn’t stay on our knees for long. Every time we fell, they would start beating on us again. So many of us were beaten up,” said a 30-year-old man from Myeik, in southern Myanmar’s Tanintharyi region.

The man is one of more than 70 protesters arrested during anti-coup demonstrations in Myeik on Tuesday.

He recalled how soldiers and police closed in on them from both ends of D street in the city’s Kat Thit ward at around 9 am. There were around 45 men and 25 women in the group, he said, ranging in age from their early teens to their thirties.

All of the men were whipped repeatedly with strips of iron or beaten with wooden rods. Some were even hit with heavy chains, he said.

Photos received by Myanmar Now showed the extent of the damage inflicted on them: their backs, buttocks and chests were covered with painful-looking injuries.
