Note:
1. While CNN said that it cannot independently verify the news, there have already been similar reports about people being coerced to participate in government rallies during Mr Ibrahim Gambari's visit to Burma.
2. Ma Nilar Thein has been in the news last month for being forced to go into hiding for her involvement in demonstrations. As her husband is currently being detained as well, the couple's 4 month old daughter has been being looked after by her grandmother.
