Myanmar’s military junta leader on Friday pardoned at least 23,047 prisoners, whom he released from the detention cells, including 137 foreigners now waiting to be deported, Myanmar’s State broadcaster MRTV reported. It, however, remains unclear if all 23, 047 prisoners are the anti-coup protesters that were arrested by the armed forces as a part of the anti-dissent crackdown. The prisoners were freed as a ‘goodwill gesture’ as Myanmar marks the Burmese New Year.
