Additionally, Naing Htut Aung was identified as an importer and broker of arms, military equipment and dual-use goods for the Tatmadaw, which were used against the civilian population and protesters all across the country. By contributing to the military’s capabilities to commit serious human rights violations and the repression of the civilian population, as well as to carry out activities undermining democracy and the rule of law in Myanmar/Burma, Naing Htut Aung provided support to the Tatmadaw and engaged in actions that threaten the peace, security or stability of Myanmar/Burma. 8.11.2022 93.
