THAILAND-MYANMAR-UNREST-PRISONERS-FILES
TO GO WITH Myanmar-unrest-prisoners by Charlie McDonald-Gibson
(FILES) This file photo dated 29 August, 2006 shows a Karen boy holding a plastic gun at the Tham Hin refugee camp in Ratchaburi province, in western Thailand near the Thai-Myanmar border, before their resettlement to the US and Australia. For years Thailand has been battling a steady stream of refugees due the various crackdowns by Myanmar's ruling junta, but the recent crackdown and the rise in political prisoners due to the protests that began in late August, 2007 has alarmed human rights groups. Concern is now mounting for all political prisoners in Myanmar, which has a track record of abuses including detention without trial and ill treatment. AFP PHOTO / FILES / PORNCHAI KITTIWONGSAKUL
