It is alleged that Ko Tun Min Khant, the chairman of the Rakhine Student Union (Dagon University branch), participated in a demonstration protesting against the new education law's decentralisation of universities' authority on 30 March 2014.

The demonstration against the new education bill's decentralisation of universities' authority took place in front of the U Tun Lin Estate at the Hledan junction near to Yangon University in Rangoon, the former Burmese capital.

Ko Tun Min Khant, who is a final-year student in the law department at Dagon University said: "I am one of four students facing a court case. The on-duty officer from Kamar Yut Police Station informed me about it on the phone. He asked me to report to the police station and apply for necessary exemptions from the arrest,”

The other three accused students have been identified as Zeyar Lwin, Pai Thu and Nan Ei, all also from Dagon University.

Ko Tun Min Khant reiterated his stand against the prosecutions and said that he and the others being prosecuted by the police would fight their cases in the courts.
