Myanmar authorities should stop prosecuting and threatening journalists and human rights defenders for reporting and speaking out about human rights abuses, Fortify Rights has said.

On 28 January, the Myanmar military threatened legal action against anyone alleging that the military is responsible for the killings of two ethnic-Kachin women on 20 January. The following day, the office of President Thein Sein directed the threat to members of the media.

These threats follow the ongoing prosecution of Brang Shawng, an ethnic-Kachin man who faces criminal charges for alleging that the Myanmar military is responsible for the death of his 14-year-old daughter, Ja Seng Ing.

Were seeing worrying trends. Wartime violence against civilians is continuing and the Myanmar military is increasingly using the justice system as a tool to silence critics, said Matthew Smith, executive director of Fortify Rights. The authorities should ensure swift justice for misconduct by soldiers rather than shielding them from public scrutiny and accountability.

On 20 January, the bodies of two ethnic Kachin women Maran Lu Ra, 19, and Tangbau Khawn Nan Tsin, 20, both volunteer teachers were discovered in a room they shared in Kaungkha village, northern Shan State. Pictures from the scene show multiple stab wounds on their partially-clothed bodies, which were severely battered and bloodied.

In the days that followed, villagers from Kaungkha village and various human rights organisations alleged that soldiers from the Myanmar Armys Light Infantry Battalion (LIB) 503 raped and murdered the women. Military personnel reportedly sealed off access to Kaungkha village in the days following the murders and were involved in an investigation by local police into the crimes.

On 28 January, Myawady, a journal operated by the Myanmar military, published a statement citing an ongoing investigation into the crime and claiming the Myanmar Army was not involved in this murder case according to evidence analysed by criminal police and other cooperating investigation teams.

The militarys statement in Myawady went on to threaten legal action against anyone who alleges that the military known in Myanmar as the Tatmadaw was involved in the murders, stating, The Tatmadaw will take action based on the rule of law against those who accuse [soldiers] and write about it after the official report is released by the investigation team.

Zaw Htay, a spokesperson for the office of President Thein Sein, supported the militarys statement, telling the independent news agency, The Irrawaddy, that media outlets could face legal action if they allege military responsibility for the murders.

The authorities should retract their threats of legal action against those alleging military involvement in the murders and ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice, Fortify Rights said. Fortify Rights is also calling for an independent international investigation, including Myanmar partners, into alleged violations of international human rights, criminal, and humanitarian law committed by all parties to Myanmars various ongoing armed conflicts.

Myanmar: Prosecute perpetrators, not human rights defenders

A viral Facebook post claims that a half-human, half-cow baby was born recently in Cavite, in the same town where a man raped a pregnant cow. Last Sunday, March 15, one Rhina Panda attached a photo of the creature with a caption that says a cow has given birth to a human-like calf.

The image already garnered over 7,000 shares as of 8:40 p.m. today.

It turned out that the photo was grabbed from a YouTube video published in 2007.

According to a 2-year-old post on Google+, a buffalo gave birth to a human-like calf in Thailand. The upper parts of its body, particularly the head, bore a striking resemblance to a baby, but its feet and internal organs were recognized as those of a cow.

The calf died immediately, the post read, adding that residents of the unnamed Thai village gathered to pray for blessings (shown in the following screen-caps) with a strong belief that the strange phenomenon could bring luck.

Jon Stewart finally lined up a post-Daily Showgig on last nights episode:a brand-new C-SPAN2 show calledHatewatch with Jon Stewart,where he acts as a watchdog over Congress.Then, he promptly quit.

The Senate failed to pass ahuman sex-trafficking bill, which originally had full support of both Republicans and Democrats, because Republicans hid an anti-abortion amendment in the text and Dems want to expunge it. What does C-SPAN2 Jon Stewart call this Republican move? Fkery.

But wait, theres more: Turns out the holdup is happening now because the Democratsdidnt fully read the bill in the first place. This includes thepartys head, Senator Harry Reid, whose last name, as Stewart pointed out, is literally read.What does C-SPAN2 Jon Stewart call this Democrat move? Dumbassery.

Watch the rest of the clip below, including Stewartsemotional resignation:
