AFP Myanmar s coup draws blood and China calls time on Clubhouse
Myanmar’s junta arrested 40 election officials Thursday and put pressure on others to back the army’s unsubstantiated voting fraud claims, relatives of the detained said, as mass protests around the country against the coup swelled with increasing support from white-collar government workers.
The military staged the coup on Feb. 1 after weeks of accusations of voting fraud in November elections that delivered a landslide win for Aung San Suu Kyi’s ruling party. The army started crying foul when its proxy party fell short even of its poor performance in 2015 elections.
