‘Ayeyarwady Ma,’ also known as Tin Zaw Htwe, a Myanmar migrant and LGBT TikTok personality living in Mae Sot on the Thai side of the Thai-Myanmar border, was robbed and murdered while traveling to meet someone she had connected with online.
On 19 January, she left her home around 11 p.m. to meet the owner of an account named “Thiha.” After that, all contact with her was lost.
On 20 January, she was found lying face down in a vacant plot of land in Mae Tao TK Gyi Ward in Mae Sot. She suffered severe head injuries and multiple stab wounds.
“One stab wound was to her neck, and beer bottles, snacks, and condoms were found nearby. She was naked from the waist down,” a Myanmar witness told Mizzima. The victim had also been sexually assaulted, and a blood-stained bamboo stick was recovered at the scene. Her belongings, including an iPhone 17 Pro Max, a gold necklace, a gold bracelet, and several rings, were reported stolen.
Thai authorities have recovered a migrant worker identification card belonging to a suspect near the scene and are intensifying their investigation to identify and arrest the perpetrator as quickly as possible. The victim’s body has been transported to Mae Sot General Hospital for further examination.
Family members have discovered evidence on social media indicating that she had arranged a meeting with the alleged perpetrator, identified as “Thiha,” and are preparing to file a formal complaint, according to sources close to the deceased.
