Junta release 17 Detainees of Depeyin Crisis


July 21 (NMG) Burmese military authorities on 18th July released seventeen oppositions from Mandalay National League for Democracy (NLD) who were detained in May 30 Depeyin crisis, said a person from Mandalay who did not want to be identified.

All these members had to sign a series of agreements such as not to exaggerate about May 30 events and they all have to report authorities if they want to travel out of Mandalay.

The authorities arranged cars to drop these opposition members including four women to their respective homes at late night between 10 to 11 pm on 18 July.

Among the 17 members, five members are from northeast, two from southeast, six from southwest and four from northwest townships of Mandalay.

On May 30 while Burmese opposition leader Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and her followers were on organizational tour to upper Burma, government affiliated thugs including prisoners brutally attacked on NLD leaders and its members, reported in news.

Although there have been several reports on arrest of NLD members around the country, the military government had never mentioned in their official media the number of peoples who were arrested.
