He, Ko Par Gyi, is the reporter and a friend of my aunt had been missing for about one month while he was reporting in Mon state on the recent fighting between the Burmese army and Karen rebels. Unfortunately, his sudden disappearance was taken as a usual thing happening for the reporters and political person while taken by the police and military. His wife, family and his close friends had been trying to contact him and to save him in last week.Today news about Ko Par Gyi made me shock and sad. He was killed while in custody of government soldiers, according to the Interim Myanmar Press Council. Ref

I would like to stand for Ko Par Gyi and his family on the side of justice.
