On November 15th 2007, SPDC soldiers from
Light Infantry Battalions (LIBs) #218 and 219 shot and killed Saw Ler
Gkay [A-75], a 28-year-old Karen villager from K--- village in Gkwee Lah
village ward, Kyauk Kyi township, Nyaunglebin District. Although Saw
Ler Gkay was a civilian, the SPDC deemed him a legitimate military
target because he was in an area that was not firmly under military
control. Saw Ler Gkay was married and had three children [A-76] between
the ages of three months and six years. Now that he is dead his
surviving wife will face increasing difficulties in supporting her
children and herself. [Photos: KHRG]
