Thai Enquirer calls on the Myanmar Government to immediately release Voice of Myanmar Editor-in-Chief Nay Myo Lin.
Nay Myo Lin was arrested on March 30 by Myanmar police for conducting interviews with the Arakan Army Rebel Group and charged under the country’s counter-terrorism laws.
Understanding all points of view and conducting interviews with opposing sides is a central part of journalism and in no way constitutes a crime.
The Myanmar Government and its armed forces must stop its alarming propensity to charge journalists who are merely doing their job.
