According to The Irrawaddy, Villagers discovered the badly beaten bodies when they checked the teachers’s room after they did not appear for morning classes.  The bodies were partially naked and showed signs of violent struggle.

Three neighbours said they heard screams from their house at 9pm on Monday night.

Unconfirmed claims on social media, along with gruesome photos of the two dead bodies, have included accusations that the Burmese army raped and murdered the two women.
