Again a victim of the military dictatorship has to be buried
Meanwhile, activists had called for further protests on the day of the death of a student whose murder in 1988 sparked an uprising against the then military government. Since the military regained power in early February and overturned the civilian government, there have been mass demonstrations almost every day. The protests demand the release and reinstatement of the ousted de facto head of government Aung San Suu Kyi.
