Appendix D:

Villagers Wounded by SPDC and DKBA

Soldiers and Landmines



This is a partial list of villagers wounded or injured by the regular SPDC soldiers, the Sa Thon Lon and the DKBA in Nyaunglebin and Papun Districts. These incidents have been described in the interviews and field reports collected for this report. Many of them have been corroborated by several interviews and field reports. There are 190 people on this list who have been injured since 1998, but it is important to emphasise that this list is far from complete and that the real number is much higher, perhaps double or triple this amount. This list does not include the hundreds of people who have suffered illnesses or been injured in accidents caused by having to flee their villages or the actions of the SPDC within the villages. The time it takes to travel to the areas and obtain the information means that there are few accounts of injuries in the last few months; this does not reflect a decrease in the rate but simply the difficulty in obtaining reliable information. Under ‘Twp.’ (Township), M = Mone, K = Kyauk Kyi, S = Shwegyin, Nyaunglebin District; L = Lu Thaw, D = Dweh Loh, B = Bu Tho, Papun District; and R = Rangoon Division. Under ‘Source’, FR indicates Field Reports from KHRG field reporters and ‘Ix indicates interviews with villagers, x being the interview number used in the report. Full texts of the interviews and field reports are available upon approved request as an Annex to this report.
