The family of an assassinated adviser to Myanmar’s government had worried about his activities and warned him to be careful, but he pursued his work for the sake of the country’s people, regardless of who they were or what religion they believed, his daughter said Tuesday.
Ko Ni, a prominent Muslim lawyer who advised Aung San Suu Kyi and her ruling National League for Democracy party, was shot in the head at close range as he was walking out of the Yangon airport Sunday.
His family feels no regret for his high-profile political work and considers him a fallen hero, his daughter, medical doctor Yin Nwe Khine, told The Associated Press in an exclusive interview. “We were always worried about him and the danger he might face because of politics,” she said.
