Myanmar Students Union Fears for Tortured Prisoners

The Irrawaddy | 15 Dec 2021

The All Burma Federation of Student Unions (ABFSU) has expressed concern for prisoners who were brutally beaten and held in solitary confinement in Yangon’s Insein Prison for joining the nationwide silent strike last week.

Last Friday, Myanmar shut down in a silent strike to mark International Human Rights Day. Political prisoners in Insein joined the strike as others stayed at home in opposition to military rule.
