(1.10) Hell for women and LGBTQIA+ in interrogations and incarceration Women and LGBTQIA+ people who are violently beaten and arrested during strikes are prosecuted under serious legal provisions and are subjected to brutal torture during interrogations. We will study some cases of sexual violence against women and LGBTQIA+ people in prisons and interrogation centers. In July 2021, a female protester over 30 years old was arrested while blindfolded with a cloth and handcuffed backward. Then, she was beaten, kicked, and tortured by soldiers after they revealed that she was involved in the protest against the military dictatorship on her Facebook account. She was berated with abusive words and beaten with deadly weapons. Moreover, she was threatened to be killed with saw, gun, and hoofs, and asked questions by cutting her toes with a saw, until they get the answers they wanted. During the interrogation, the woman was forced to have her breasts touched by the terrorist soldiers. Forcing her to drink alcohol into her mouth and she was kicked and beaten when she does not drink. She even encountered with forcing to unbutton her shirt and attempt to rape and finally she escaped the incident by lying that she had HIV.12 During the anti-dictatorship demonstrations, the transgender people from Myanmar used a variety of dress codes to draw the attention of the world and the international community to the anti-dictatorship protests in various protests. That is why it is found that these people with different sexual orientations are more focused and oppressed by the terrorist army. The Burma Student Union has issued an announcement that one member of the Union and two male interrogators were abused at the Mandalay Palace interrogation, and they are not allowed to receive medical treatment.13 In addition, women in prison face sexual exploitation and abuse on a daily basis. In situations such as getting to meet prisoners in prison, going out for the trial, and going to the clinic, the staff members of the prison used to grab women’s breasts for the reason of searching for illegal substances, drugs, money, and letter. It happens every day that women are subjected to physical examination. During the search, the prison staff sometimes commit sexual harassment like, “Your belongings are big or small”.14 According to NUG government data in May 2021, more than 73 LGBTQIA+ people have been detained and at least 12 have been killed by the terrorist army. Prominent LGBTQIA+ rights activist Sue Sha Shin Thant was hit by an army car while riding a motorcycle and arrested on 2 October 2021. It is found out that she was dragged upside down from a tree and beaten at the Mandalay police station, and she was sexually assaulted during the interrogation.15 အဖမ်းး�ဆီးး�ခံံ အမျိုး�း��သမီးး�ရဲဲဘော်�်�များ�း�၏ စစ််ကြော��ာရေး�းနှှင့််�ထော�ာင််တွွင်းး� လိိင််ပိုု�င်းး�ဆိုု�င််ရာာစော်�်�ကားး�ခံံရမှုုများ�း�နှှင့််� 13 Moe Oo.
