A/HRC/39/CRP.2 a senior officer would come and ask if we had something to say about the training. I was always beaten because I wanted to go home and because I was the youngest. 804 (g) Sexual and gender-based violence 370. One incident of sexual violence concerning perpetrators belonging to an EAO was reported by a source and involved the rape of a headmistress by several TNLA officers at her home in Kyaukme Township, Shan State in October 2017. Following the victim’s report to local authorities, the TNLA negotiated for the perpetrators to pay compensation to the victim, and brought two soldiers to kneel and apologize to her. The TNLA held a “court case” in the forest to address the crime. The victim was invited, but chose not to attend.805 The Mission also received unverified reports of KIA men raping women in Kachin State during the reporting period who were subsequently tried before courts in KIO controlled territory. 806 These allegations require further verification. (h) Killings 371. The Mission has also obtained credible but unverified information suggesting that some EAOs have unlawfully killed civilians or fighters hors de combat in their custody.807 372. For example, the Mission recorded an account of the Shan Army808 killing a Lahu man in 2011 in Maungdaw Township, Shan State. According to the witness, the victim, a former Tatmadaw soldier, was mutilated and tortured before being killed.809 In February 2016, it was reported that an unspecified ethnic armed group killed seven civilians in Kyaukme Township, Shan State. The bodies were found by the Tatmadaw the day after their abduction. 810 In March 2016, the UWSA reportedly executed two persons after they were convicted of murder by the Wa Special Administrative Zone’s court.811 A further reported case suggests that SSA-S men killed a Ta’ang villager in Namkham Township, Shan State, on 1 July 2016.812 Similarly, it was reported that TNLA men killed four villagers in the forest near a village of Namkham Township, Shan State, on 8 February 2016.813 373. These cases require further verification, including regarding the protected status of the persons killed. C. 1. Impact of conflict, violations and abuses on civilians Fear, trauma, displacement and humanitarian impact 374. Irreversible harm has been inflicted on civilians by all parties to the conflicts in northern Myanmar: civilians were killed and injured; families were separated and displaced multiple times; homes, churches and schools were looted or destroyed, also preventing many children from attending school regularly; 814 and entire villages were burned and destroyed. The civilian population continues to live in constant fear and terror of an army that has thoroughly failed to protect them, and in many instances directly attacked them. 375. Victims have informed the Mission of how their lives have been altered as a consequence of the perpetration of human rights violations. Victims remain highly traumatised.815 For example, a source mentioned that children are afraid of opening doors and 804 805 806 807 808 809 810 811 812 813 814 815 PI-014. PI-110. K-145.
