The government, for which political prisoners sacrificed a lot, should define the term, Lower House MP of the Arakan National Party Hpe Than said.
The Myebon, Rakhine State, MP asked whether the government had definitions for "political offence" and "political prisoner".
Military-appointed Deputy Home Affairs Minister General Aung Soe said there was no definition.
“The government should recognise them for their sacrifices. Political prisoners are just asking for appreciation their suffering. The government is responsible to define that,” said Hpe Than. (Courtesy of elevenmyanmar.com)
