More NLD activists flee Burma due to increasing repressions [Democratic Voice of Burma]
Ko Naing Zaw Win, the joint secretary of the organising committee of Kachin State National League for Democracy (NLD) and another NLD member fled to the Thai-Burma border on 20 April because it was impossible for them to continue their political activities inside Burma.
Ko Naing Zaw Win was arrested and detained three times by Burma’s military junta for his active role in the NLD from 1990 to the time of his flight. According to him, the military intelligence (MI) agents have been restricting and watching the movements of the activists to such and extent that they are unable to take part in their political activities freely as promised by the junta to the outside world.
He added that he fled the country with the hope of continuing his political activities and the struggles for democracy and human right from abroad.
Ko Naing Zaw Win was last arrested in June 2003 and detained for more than seven months for helping to organise Daw Aung San Suu Kyi’s trip to the Kachin State before she and her supporters were brutally attacked by the junta sponsored thugs at Dipeyin in upper Burma on 30 May.
