FREE MYO MIN ZAW Myo Min Zaw is a prisoner of conscience. He was imprisoned in 1998, at the age of 21, for his role in student demonstrations calling for improvements to education and support for the opposition party, the National League for Democracy. Myo Min Zaw was reportedly tortured in interrogation and sentenced to 38 years imprisonment, now increased to 52 years, solely for the non-violent expression of his beliefs. He has suffered from gastric pain and a skin disease in prison.

Please send by December 2008

Dear General

I urge you to immediately and unconditionally release Myo Min Zaw.

Until his release, I ask you to ensure that Myo Min Zaw is treated in line with international law: that he is provided adequate food, any necessary medical attention, and granted access to family and lawyers immediately.

Sincerely,

First name ________________________________ Surname __________________________________

He is being detained solely for the peaceful exercise of his rights to freedom of expression, association and assembly. Senior General Than Shwe Chairman State Peace and Development Council c/o Ministry of Defence Naypyitaw Union of Myanmar

FREE MA KHIN KHIN LEH

Ma Khin Khin Leh is a prisoner of conscience. The school teacher and mother was imprisoned at the age of 33 after the authorities could not locate her politically-active husband who was planning a peaceful political march. Ma Khin Khin Leh was given a life sentence in 1999 under vaguely-worded security legislation. Even by the harsh standards of ‘justice’ used by Myanmar's military government, her life sentence is extreme. She has suffered from an unspecified lung problem, rheumatoid arthritis and dysentry in prison. Amnesty International is very concerned for her safety and wellbeing.

Please send by December 2008

Dear General

Myanmar’s security laws have unjustly punished people for exercising their individual freedom of expression. Ma Khin Khin Leh was given a harsh sentence of life imprisonment under these laws. I ask you to amend these vaguely-worded security laws to prevent them from being used to curtail the rights of the people of Myanmar. Sincerely, First name ________________________________ Surname __________________________________

I urge you to immediately and unconditionally release Ma Khin Khin Leh and that in the meantime, she is provided with all necessary treatment for her health problems.

Senior General Than Shwe Chairman State Peace and Development Council c/o Ministry of Defence Naypyitaw Union of Myanmar
