A/HRC/39/CRP.2 her and she was hit in the hip. She was severely injured and died as a consequence of the shooting and the denial of timely access to medical care. 208 146. The Tatmadaw has also repeatedly launched mortar shelling and airstrikes on civilian residential areas across northern Myanmar, throughout the reporting period. Explosives have landed on or near civilian homes, in populated residential areas, including in IDP camps, killing and injuring villagers and destroying property. These attacks also resulted in burning of property and civilians were killed in these fires.209 Unlawful killings of persons while in Tatmadaw custody 147. Many killings reported to the Mission were committed while the victims were in the custody of the Tatmadaw.210 The Tatmadaw often apprehended and detained men,211 and then questioned them regarding their occupations and possible affiliations with armed groups, the whereabouts of members or bases of EAOs, or related matters. The questioning was often undertaken using torture or ill-treatment,212 and the men were subsequently killed. 148. For example, at the end of June 2017, in Man Lan village, Namhsan Township, Shan State, the Tatmadaw detained and tortured a man suspected of being a member of the TNLA. When he denied this, he was repeatedly beaten. His corpse was found the next day with a TNLA uniform on.213 Similarly, on 26 May 2017, in Mansi Township, Kachin State, the Mission corroborated that Tatmadaw soldiers executed three civilian displaced persons in their custody. According to information received, the three men were killed because they were Kachin and as such suspected of being KIA members. 214 149. The Mission received further credible and consistent accounts of civilian men, who have been apprehended and detained by the Tatmadaw, being found dead days or weeks later.215 For example, a witness explained how his father was detained by the Tatmadaw on the suspicion of supporting the SSA-S in 2011 in Loilen Township, Shan State, and was found dead a week later in the forest: In October or November 2011, at about midnight, the six Tatmadaw soldiers came to our home and detained my father. They also wanted to detain me, but I managed to escape. My father was accused of providing food and shelter to the SSA-S, although that was not true. They tied my father’s hands with a rope and took him away. A week later, we had not received any news from him, so we searched for him in the jungle. We found his body at the bottom of a mountain. I did not see any bullet wounds; it appeared that he was beaten to death. His hands were still tied with a rope. I also found other bodies that day; there were two more next to my father’s. All the people killed were just regular farmers.216 150. Similarly, the Mission received credible reports of the killing of two residents of the Maing Hkawng IDP camp in Mansi Township, Kachin State, last seen on 31 January 2018 in the custody of the Tatmadaw. Their bodies were found in a grave on 8 March 2018 by 208 209 210 211 212 213 214 215 216 K-131, PI-105, V-126; see this chapter, section C.3: Lack of recourse.
