YANGON - Myanmar freed more than 600 coup detainees on Wednesday, including an Associated Press photographer arrested while covering rallies, following fresh outrage over brutal crackdowns on protesters.
The AP's vice president for international news Ian Phillips said the agency was "deeply relieved" at Thein Zaw's release. Lawyer Khin Maung Myint, who was at Insein prison for the hearing of two other clients, said 16 busloads of people left the jail at 10 am local time . Three people were killed on Tuesday including seven-year-old girl Khin Myo Chit, shot dead at her home in Mandalay, according to the Assistance Association for Political Prisoners , a local monitoring group.
"We remain concerned at ongoing arbitrary arrests, including of journalists and civil society leaders," deputy UN spokesperson Farhan Haq said.
