Father and two children arrested by junta troops

Junta troops arrested three family members including a father and two children for banging pots and pans at their home from Htuparyone (2) street, Tharkayta township, Yangon and they have not been released yet, according to locals.

Two military trucks entered the street and arrested a six-year-old boy, ten year old girl and their father on December 6.

A violent crackdown on peaceful protesters on the 5th of December in Kyi Myin Tine township revived the sound of banging pots and pans around Yangon at night, a symbol of opposition to the military dictatorship.

On the second day after the crackdown, more people were banging pots and pans and junta soldiers started shouting and cursing on the roads and towards the apartments according to the locals.
