A resident of Hlaing Tharyar said that the USDA member had been decapitated and his skin partially removed.

“All the nerves on his body were exposed and his head was stuck up on a bamboo pole,” the resident said.

The USDA member was reportedly known for treating people in the township badly when he was alive.

Other USDA members in the area were said to be shaken by news of the circumstances of the killing.

“It seems other that USDA members who have heard about this murder are so scared they might face the same fate that they have been much quieter recently and have not been harassing local people,” the resident said.

Residents have not heard of any arrests made so far in connection with the case.
