Terrorist Groups Intensify Campaign of Abduction, Extortion and Killings Targeting Civil Servant’s Families

    Terrorist groups have been engaging in battles, carrying out attacks using heavy weapons, drones to drop bombs and improvised explosive devices across towns and villages in various states and regions. Moreover, they are committing inhumane acts of terror and criminal activities including abducting and extorting money from civil servant’s families and local civilians, as well as killings.
    Since they are conducting such terrorist acts, on 6 June 2025 at 6:30 AM, U Kyi Shwe (65 years old), a resident of No.1 Ward in Myingyan Township of Mandalay Region and the father of Police Second Lieutenant Chan Myae Aung, who was serving as an apprentice officer at the office of the Aungmyaytharzan District Police Commander was abducted by a so-called PDF terrorist group. The incident occurred while U Kyi Shwe was travelling from Myingyan Town to Mandalay City aboard a Shwe Mingalar passenger bus. The abduction took place between Natogyi Town and Pyin Zi Village, where the terrorist group intercepted the vehicle and took him away, it is reported.
    Regarding the above incident, security personnel are continuing necessary operations in accordance with standard procedures to identify, apprehend, and take action against the terrorists involved, it is reported.
