Title: 

DKBA burns village and forces residents to relocate in Pa?an District

Description: 

DKBA soldiers in Dta Greh Township, Pa?an District, have burnt the small village of Gk?Law Lu and forced its residents to relocate. This incident is the second time Gk?Law Lu has been burnt and relocated by DKBA soldiers: the village was first burnt and residents forcibly relocated in October 2008. Relocated families, meanwhile, may face serious threats to their livelihoods if potential DKBA travel restrictions and risks from landmines limit access to farm fields in their home village.
