At 12.45 pm, Ma Oo Khin, an ethnic Daingnet, was found with slashes in her neck, ears and head at her home in Yankarzedi Village. After receiving first-aid, she was sent to Aungthabyay regional police station for medical treatment.

At 9.30 am on 27 August, a total of 10 men and seven women, totalling 17 who fled away due to attacks of ARSA extremist Bengali terrorists arrived at Aungthabyay region police camp but five ethnics went missing.

While searching the missing Daingnet ethnics, the security troops found a soil mound at the foot of hill, southeast of Kyaungdoe Village, at about 6 pm on 28 August. They unearthed it and found three remains with injuries of swords.

According to the approval of Daingnet ethnics, those remains were identified as Ma Kan Thi, her two years old daughter Ma Khin Nu, and Ma Oo Khin’s daughter two years old Ma Hla Thar Nu from Yankarzedi Village.
