Young man hangs himself to death in Sittwe

Young man hangs himself to death in Sittwe; total suicide deaths reach to six in five months

A man in his 20s hanged himself to death in Sittwe on Friday making the number of deaths by hanging in the past five months to six in Rakhine State’s capital.

The deceased man who lived in Sittwe’s Ywagyi Myauk Ward was the 24- year old Ko Maung Win Hlaing. He was found dead at 8:30pm on 7 October.

Ywagyi Myauk Ward Administrator, U San Thein, told Narinjara that the wife found him dead hanging at their house.

“We have no idea when he died hanging. As only the two live in the house, his wife knew only when she arrived back. The wife was going to her mother’s house in the same ward,” he said.

The ward administrator said the man had been talking about hanging himself as the livelihood and business was not good.

“They are leading a hard life. They had to live renting someone else’ house. Husband had no job and tried to hang himself. He was showing the rope. This time he did it practically, said the ward administrator.

The other five people who hanged themselves to death in Sittwe in the past five months are Daw Ohnmar Khin from Mingan Wunhtan Block (3), the 30-year old U Kyaw Myat from Setyon Su Ward, 58-year old U Tun Tha Sein , 21- year old U Tun Aye Kyaw and 18-year old Ma Yu Yu Hlaing of Kanpyin village in Sittwe Township.

The six deaths occurred in five months from May to 7 October, according to figures from Myitta Yaungchi Foundation based in Sittwe.

Meet The Man Who Broke World Record By Sleeping With 57 Women In 24 Hrs But Later Rushed To Hospital Meet a man who managed to make it to the Guinness book of records after breaking a long standing world record of sleeping with 57 women in a span of 24 hours. The 34 year old man hailed from Singapore and broke the record in Prague, the capital of Czech Republic, in an annual event run by a local brothel. According to reports, the unnamed man disclosed that he had been training hard for months to break the previous record which stood at 55 and he was delighted that he broke it. Quoting him, he said, “I've always been a bit of a sex addict, and when I learned that the brothel was having a world record attempt I knew I had to come and give it a go. I take it really seriously and train for it just like an athlete would prepare for a marathon. In some ways, it's actually much harder than a lot of professional sports.`` The Singapore man was very focused on his goal in that by mid...

The Holocaust: 18. War Crimes

**The Holocaust: 18. War Crimes** G.M. Gilbert was one of the prison psychologists during the Nuremberg war crimes trial. On April 9, 1946 he had a brief conversation with Colonel Rudolph Hoess, who had been the commandant of Auschwitz. The following is an excerpt of his book *Nurember Diary*: We discussed briefly his activity as the commandant of the Auschwitz concentration camp from May, 1940, to December, 1943, which camp was the central extermination camp for Jews. He readily confirmed that approximately 2 1/2 million Jews had been exterminated under his direction. The exterminations began in the summer of 1941. In compliance with [Hermann] Goering's skepticism, I asked Hoess how it was technically possible to exterminate 2 1/2 million people. "Technicall?" he asked. "That wasn't so hard -- it would not have been hard to exterminate even greater numbers." In answer to my rather naive questions as to how many people could be done away with in an hour, et...
