NLD Says Police Must Open File on Protest Victims

Source: Irrawaddy News

The victims of the brutal suppression of September’s demonstrations should not be forgotten if dialogue does take place between the Burmese regime and the opposition, National League for Democracy spokesman Nyan Win told The Irrawaddy on Wednesday.

Nyan Win, who is also a lawyer, said the police must legally open files on the demonstrators who were killed or who are still missing. The deaths of demonstrators were crimes, he emphasized.

“The NLD does not neglect those who lost their lives during the conflict,” Nyan Win said. “We will talk about them in any dialogue with the authorities.”
