A prominent Christian church leader and human rights advocate from Myanmar's Kachin ethnic minority was detained by the authorities just hours after he was released from prison under an amnesty by the military government, a relative, a colleague and local media said Thursday.
The former head of the Kachin Baptist Convention, who met with then-President Donald Trump at the White House in December 2019, was among 3,300 prisoners released Wednesday to mark a traditional holiday in Myanmar. Hours later, security forces took him away from his home, saying it was for his own protection.
