A new report investigating the rape and murder in northern Shan State of two Kachin Christian teachers alleges that a high-ranking military officer was involved in the cover-up of the crime carried out by soldiers.
The Kachin Women's Association of Thailand and the Legal Aid Network released the report "Justice delayed, justice denied" on Jan. 19, which coincided with the one-year anniversary of the two teachers' deaths.
The report makes claims to expose an alleged cover-up of the military's involvement in the case. The report also states that the investigation into the murders has been one-sided, which led to delays and a denial of justice.
The report analyzes witness testimony that identifies as a key suspect the commanding officer from Myanmar's army, which was camped in the village. (ucanews.com
