Paing Takhon, a 24-year-old model in the Burmese entertainment industry who has taken to the streets several times to protest against the coup of the military government, was rumored to have been arrested early this morning (8). Paing Takhon was a monk for a short time earlier this year, but with his bald head and monk’s clothes, he still looks handsome and is known as “the most handsome monk on earth”.
Paing Takhon, a 24-year-old Burmese showbiz model who has taken to the streets several times to protest against the military government’s coup, was reportedly arrested early in the morning of the 8th.
The BBC reports that Paing’s sister, Thi Thi Lwin, confirmed in a Facebook post today that Paing was arrested at around 5 a.m. local time today, saying that eight military trucks carrying 50 soldiers came to arrest him early in the morning. The arrest took place at his mother’s home in Yangon’s North Dagon district.
The Burmese military arrested elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi and other senior officials on Feb. 1, staging a coup d’état that has led to daily street protests in Myanmar’s major cities and a forceful military crackdown that has killed some 600 people.
Paik In has also taken to the streets several times to join the protests and has posted pictures of Aung San Suu Kyi on social media platforms to show his support. He also posted a message condemning the military coup, writing in one post, “We strongly condemn the military coup and we demand the immediate release of State Counselor Aung San Suu Kyi, President Win Myint, and other elected government heads and members of parliament. “
“We demand that the results of the 2020 elections be respected and that a new civilian government be formed as soon as possible by the National League for Democracy (NLD)-led National Assembly.”
The company’s family and fans were worried about the loss of contact at the beginning of March, but two days later he posted a message on the social media platform to report his safety and reassure everyone.
The company’s main business is to promote the development of the company’s products and services. In 2019, he was named one of the top 10 best actors by The Myanmar Times. Earlier this year, he announced that he had become a monk for 10 days and publicly shaved his hair. Even with his bald head, he could not hide the charm of his handsome appearance and was named the “most handsome monk on earth.
The company has been actively involved in online protests and street rallies, but its personal IG and Facebook accounts have been deleted.
The company’s friends revealed that Paine has a serious depression and a physical condition that prevents him from standing or walking properly, but he is aware of the consequences he will face and is “not afraid at all” and carries two cell phones with him.
Paing’s arrest is the latest in a recent crackdown on celebrities by the Burmese military, which has now issued arrest warrants for about 100 filmmakers, actors and journalists who have spoken out against the coup.
