Description:
"On November 30, seven students from Dagon University were sen-tenced to death by
Myanmar Military Council. The military group's im-position of the death sentence is just trying
to kill innocent people using crumbling courts and laws. We, the Students Unions, do not
accept the ruling by the courts, which are the pillars of the terrorist military group, and
strongly oppose such injustice sentences imposed on innocent uni-versity students.
We, the Student Unions, stand together with the students who have been unjustly sentenced,
Ko Khant Zin Win, Ko Thura Maung Maung, Ko Zaw Lin Naing, Ko Thiha Htet Zaw, Ko Hein Htet,
Ko Thet Paing Oo, Ko Khant Lynn Maung Maung, monitoring all the situations closely.
The regime continues to torture and kill innocent students brutally. Also, in July 2022, four
pro-democracy activists were hanged by the terrorist military group, and so far, more than
13,000 people have been unjustly arrested, and 2,500 have been imprisoned across the
country.
We strongly urge the international community, including governments and organizations, to
take more focused actions to prevent the killing mechanisms of the military group from
continuing to operate.
As a whole population, we appeal to overcome fear and participate in the revolution for our
student comrades and the unjustly oppressed people..."
