Ko Aung Myint Hlaing, a 32-year-old electrical engineer, was beaten to death by regime forces on Tuesday night shortly after being detained for questioning in Bago Region’s Pyay Township.
His family was refused permission to retrieve his body for a funeral.
The man’s family told The Irrawaddy that regime forces including plainclothes military men arrested him at around 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday on suspicion of involvement in a bomb blast in front of a branch of military-owned Innwa Bank in Shwetaung in late April.
