The office had determined that вЂњat least five deaths in custody have occurred in recent weeksвЂќ, she said, adding that вЂњat least two victimsвЂ™ bodies have shown signs of severe physical abuse indicating that they were torturedвЂќ. вЂњDeeply distressing reports of torture in custody have also emerged.вЂќ вЂњThe death toll has soared over the past week in Myanmar, where security forces have been using lethal force increasingly aggressively against peaceful protesters,вЂќ the UN rights office spokesperson Ravina Shamdasani told reporters. The United Nations on Tuesday again condemned the deaths in Myanmar, adding that it was worried about reports of torture and deaths of those in custody. In the countryвЂ™s second largest city, Mandalay, saffron-robed monks marched alongside demonstrators who were carrying the red flags of Aung San Suu KyiвЂ™s National League for Democracy party. But protesters continued taking to the streets on Wednesday, with local media broadcasting images of people marching through northern Hpakant and central Sagaing region. More than 200 people have died in anti-coup unrest, according to the Assistance Association for Political Prisoners, a local monitoring group. The country is also placed under a nightly internet shutdown for eight hours. Much of Myanmar has not been able to use their mobile internet since the early hours of Monday. Information on arrests and violence has been trickling out of the conflict areas on social media вЂ“ the flow slowed by the juntaвЂ™s blocking mobile data access. In a residential area of a neighbouring township, video footage verified by AFP showed volleys of gunfire last about 15 seconds. Some protesters threw petrol bombs at the security forces, but otherwise appeared defenceless as they hid behind makeshift shields.

Some of those barricades were set on fire, leading to heavy black smoke rising above the mostly deserted streets. They had also erected barricades made out of tyres, wood, sandbags and bamboo poles. Hardline anti-coup protesters had camped on a bridge leading into the townshipвЂ™s main roads on Tuesday evening, wearing hard hats, gas masks and carrying shields. вЂњIf they detected anything related to politics and the civil disobedience movement, they arrested people,вЂќ he said, adding that authorities also threatened residents to make them remove barricades around the area. вЂњThey were checking cars, motorbikes and the mobile phones of people going around the streets,вЂќ he told AFP. вЂњThere was constant gunshots the entire night and we didnвЂ™t get to sleep,вЂќ one resident told Agence France-Presse on Wednesday, adding that people were worried about even walking on the streets for fear of getting targeted by security forces.ДЄnother resident, a medical student, said there was a heavy military and police presence around the main parts of the township.

Those who stayed reported scenes akin to war. Residents вЂ“ many of them migrant workers вЂ“ have since fled back to their home states, piling their belongings and families on to flat-bed trucks and the backs of motorbikes. The junta on Sunday imposed martial law on Hlaing Tharyar and later on other protest hotspot townships вЂ“ effectively placing nearly 2 million people under complete control of military commanders.

Sunday was the deadliest day since the coup, with a local monitoring group documenting more than 70 people killed вЂ“ the bulk of them in the Hlaing Tharyar township. The junta has increasingly deployed heavier force to quell the demonstrations, with more than 200 protesters reported to have been killed in the crackdown.
