Subject : Irregularity of SLORC regarding peasants

 
 
Because of the reinforcement of SLORCs soldier often and again in 
Kalay township, the farmers of the jurisdiction have to loss their 
cultivating lands, as the soldiers confiscated their lands for military 
use. 
They do not get another plot of land and no compensation for their 
confiscated land.
 
The commanding officer Maj. Soe (BD-17181) Lwin and his assistant 
Capt. Maung Maung Than (BD-17962) of Light Infantry Battalion No. 87 
confiscated the 38.43 acres of cultivating land from (13) framers and 
made 
them sign the assignment forcibly on 31 March 1996. These framers entered 
an appeal to the Army chief of staff asking for their land or 
compensation 
but in vain. Farmers of this jurisdiction are being repressed very badly 
under the army boots.
